Screening tool effectiveness: sensitivity and specificity of fall-risk tools.

Monthly fall-tracking surveys; baseline and final assessments

Sensitivity, specificity, likelihood ratios, logistic regression

Sensitivity ranged between 22.5 and 68.7%; specificity ranged between 57.9 and 89.4% with variation by age and sex.

Highlights that no screening tool is a one-size-fits-all. Thus, risk screening should be tailored to patient characteristics.

Community-dwelling older adults who are over 65 years old.

Fall incidence: rate of falls per year.

 

Injury severity: fractures, dislocations, concussions.

Bed/chair alarms and sensors showed no significant impact.

Highlights that technology alone provides limited benefits. Instead, education is the most effective component of a rehab fall bundle.

Spoon et al. (2024)

ERIC implementation strategies.

Systematic review.

48 hospital-based fall prevention studies.

Implementation strategies: methods promoting interventions.


Adherence rates: compliance with interventions.
