Home based, tailored intervention to reduce rate of falls after stroke (FAST): randomised trial
Listen to this summary
The study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a multidisciplinary, home-based intervention in reducing falls among community-dwelling individuals who have experienced a stroke. Results indicated that the intervention led to a significant 33% reduction in the rate of falls over 12 months, alongside improvements in self-efficacy, mobility, community participation, and balance. These findings suggest that tailored interventions can effectively mitigate fall risks in this population.
