Previous falls prevention programs have demonstrated the effectiveness of multi-component falls prevention interventions in improving functional outcomes and reducing falls compared to usual care. A previous trial of a tailored multi-component falls intervention program for older adults recruited from the emergency department (SAFE) found that there is significant heterogeneity in terms of falls risk factors in high falls risk older adults. Thus, the effectiveness of SAFE in participants with poorer cognitive function or had more comorbidities were less effective and less cost-effective. Therefore, the aim of this trial is to demonstrate the effectiveness of a technology-enhanced, multi-domain and multi-component falls prevention intervention in reducing number of fallers and injurious fallers among older adults with elevated fall risk.\n\nHypothesis: Using novel wearable technologies to a) identify older adults who are at high risk of falls and more likely to benefit from a multi-component intervention and b) tailor the exercise and educational components by giving individualized biofeedback will improve the effectiveness of an enhanced multi-domain, multi-component falls intervention program for community dwelling older adults.\n\nMethodology: This study is a randomized controlled trial aimed at demonstrating the effectiveness of a technology-enhanced, multi-domain and multi-component falls prevention intervention (SAFE-TECH) in community- dwelling older adults with elevated fall risk compared with usual care. Participants in both arms are selected based on questionnaire based and wearable sensor based predictions of their falls risk. Participants in the intervention arm will receive a 12-week active falls intervention program consisting of exercise and educational components, with detailed biofeedback of their functional status.",[28,29],"Fall Prevention","Fall Injury",[31,32,33],"Fall","Injurious fall","Falls Prevention Intervention","RECRUITING","2024-09-03",{"date":37,"type":38},"2024-09-19","ACTUAL",{"date":40,"type":38},"2024-03-01",{"date":42,"type":22},"2026-02-28",{"name":44,"class":45},"Duke-NUS Graduate Medical School","OTHER",1,{"id":48,"slug":49,"hasResults":11,"nctId":50,"briefTitle":51,"officialTitle":51,"acronym":4,"eligibilityCriteria":52,"healthyVolunteers":53,"sex":17,"minAge":18,"maxAge":54,"enrollmentInfo":55,"targetDuration":4,"studyType":23,"phases":57,"briefSummary":58,"conditions":59,"keywords":4,"overallStatus":61,"whyStopped":4,"lastUpdateSubmitDate":62,"lastUpdatePostDateStruct":63,"startDateStruct":65,"completionDateStruct":67,"leadSponsor":69,"locationsCount":71},"100558009","does-participation-in-a-fall-preparedness-program-improve-fall-efficacy-among-older-adults-100558009","NCT06545539","Does Participation in a Fall Preparedness Program Improve Fall Efficacy Among Older Adults","Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Adults age 60 and up\n* able to participate in exercise program\n\nExclusion criteria:\n\n* Adults age \\\u003C60 year old\n* severe medical condition that prohibits the ability to participate in an exercise program\n* 6CIT score that indicates severely impaired cognition.\n\nSevere medical conditions will be screed by a licensed Physical Therapist.

A robust method for improving aging-related proprioceptive deficits is lacking, while strong evidence shows that proprioception deficits are highly associated with poor balance recovery from tripping. Previous research suggested that stochastic vibratory stimulation (SVS) can influence proprioception (i.e., muscle spindle function) among healthy controls; however, it is not clear how older adults with deficits in muscle spindle function would react to SVS. In previous work the investigators showed promising findings of standing balance and timed-up-and-go (TUG) improvements using SVS among high fall risk older adults with history of fall 15-18. They will implement SVS in the current project to improve aging-related proprioceptive deficits. The hypothesis is that SVS improves muscle spindle function and balance recovery from tripping in older adults with proprioceptive deficits.",[31,29],[116,117,118],"Balance recovery","stochastic stimulation intervention","Older adults","2023-02-07",{"date":121,"type":38},"2023-02-09",{"date":123,"type":22},"2023-09-20",{"date":125,"type":22},"2026-09-01",{"name":127,"class":45},"University of Arizona"]
