Clinical Impact of a Digital Home-based Falls Prevention Program on Elderly People
This study is a single-center, prospective, non-blind, parallel-group, randomized controlled trial with an experimental and a control group with the aim of evaluating the clinical impact of a home-based falls prevention program using a new biofeedback system on community-dwellers older adults with fall risk in comparison with standard of care. The experimental group will perform a 12-week exercise program at home, under remote monitoring from a clinical team, whereas the control group will benefit from standard medical care currently in place at the participating primary care facility. The hypothesis is that the home-based falls prevention program will lead to a lower risk of falling than standard medical care.
