Better informing everyday fall risk assessment: experimental studies
Two case studies were performed to provide a framework to assess extrinsic factors within fall risk assessment via video glasses. The first was AI-based detection of environment and terrain type. We developed convolutional neural networks (CNN) via a bespoke dataset (>145 000 images) captured from different settings (eg, offices, high streets ...
Video-Based Inpatient Fall Risk Assessment: A Case Study
The majority of prior studies have focused on fall event detection, and do not consider the circumstances that may indicate an imminent inpatient fall. Here, we propose a video-based system that can monitor the risk of a patient falling, and alert staff of unsafe behaviour to help prevent falls before they occur.
Assessment and Management of Fall Risk in Primary Care Settings
The recommended elements of a fall-focused physical examination are shown in Box 1. An essential exam element is assessment of the patient's gait and balance. Three quick gait, strength, and balance tests are the Timed Up-and-Go (TUG), the 30-Second Chair Stand test, and the 4-Stage Balance test.
