چکیده مقاله:
Objectives: This study was conducted to determine the prevalence and predictors of home fall among elderly people living in Qazvin City, Iran, ۲۰۱۸.
Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed on ۳۰۰ elderly people aged ۶۰ years or higher who were selected by cluster sampling technique. Data were collected by demographic and chronic diseases checklist, checklist of the characteristics of fall in the last year, Abbreviated Mental Test (AMT), self-reported health scale, and Timed Up and Go (TUG) test. The logistic regression model was conducted to determine predictors of home falls.
Results: The mean age of the ۳۰۰ older people who participated in the study was ۷۰.۱۱±۸.۹۰ years. Approximately, one-third of them (n=۱۰۰, ۳۳.۳%) reported at least one fall during the last year. The results of the logistic regression revealed that the number of medicines used (OR=۵.۳۱, CI=۱.۴۴-۱۹.۴۹), history of the physical disease (OR=۱.۳۱, CI=۱.۰۱-۱.۷۰), age (OR=۱.۰۹, CI=۱.۰۳-۱.۱۵), balance control (OR=۱.۰۴, CI=۰.۰۷-۱.۰۱), and physical activity (OR=۰.۷۲, CI=۰.۵۷-۰.۹۲) were internal predictors of the fall among older adults.
Discussion: The findings of our study disclosed that the incidence of falls is rather high among older people. The frequency of falls increased by advancing age, increase the number of physical illnesses and medicines used, poor balance, and a reduction in physical activity.
