Are Nocturia and Falls Associated? A Secondary Analysis

Listen to this summary

The authors aimed to investigate the association between nocturia and falls in older patients, considering other risk factors such as arthritis, gait instability, and obstructive sleep apnea. Their analysis of 121 participants revealed a low probability of a direct association between nocturia episodes and falls or injuries, suggesting that fall prevention strategies should prioritize addressing these other risk factors instead.
