Interventions for Preventing Falls in Older People in Care Facilities and Hospitals

Cameron, ID, et al. | The Cochrane Collaboration | 2013

A physician smiles into the camera at a hospital while other clinicians gather in the background.

This review included 60 randomised controlled trials involving 60,345 participants. Forty-three trials (30,373 participants) were in care facilities, and 17 (29,972 participants) in hospitals. Despite the large number of trials, there was limited evidence to support any one intervention.
