Efficacy of a multiple-component and multifactorial personalized fall prevention program in a mixed population of community-dwelling older adults with stroke, Parkinson's Disease, or frailty compared to usual care: The PRE.C.I.S.A. randomized controlled trial.

Besides, concerning ‘fall probability' for two or more falls, the elderly aged over 80 demonstrated a higher risk of falling (borderline significance) in comparison to younger subjects aged 65-80 (OR = 1.72, 95%CI [0.99–3.00], p = 0.054).

Differences between sub-groups (risk classes and gender) in the CG and IG Regarding the number of falls ( Table 6 ), the comparison between CG and IG showed a trend toward a lower (although not significant) risk for elderly aged 65–80 (IRR=0.79, 95%CI [0.50, 1.25]), elderly aged >80 (IRR = 0.85, 95%CI [0.51, 1.40]), and elderly with associated Parkinson's Disease (IRR=0.94, 95%CI [0.52, 1.72]) in the IG.

The intervention showed the potentiality of improving balance at post-test, leading to a positive trend toward a lower number of falls, lower fall rates in multiple fallers, a lower mean number of falls per participant, and a lower rate of fall-related severe injuries for the intervention group.
