Fall risk assessment is a necessary component of fall prevention programs. Accurate instruments to predict the risk of falling are paramount in identifying the correct patients in need of fall prevention measures. The purpose of this study was to prospectively validate the Hester Davis Scale (HDS) ...

In short, the results showed that the history of falls measured as the number of prior falls within 12 months before the study examination was the best predictor for future falls in all three cohorts [17, 18]. Furthermore, we showed the importance of how the information about the fall ...
Our study has some limitations. First, our model’s performance was not optimal, with an AUROC of 0.70, compared with other previous machine learning-based fall prediction models (AUROC range, 0.70–0.88) [22,23,24,25,26]. This is possibly because physical examination results, such as gait...

Postural instability is one of the most disabling motor signs of Parkinson’s disease (PD) and often underlies an increased likelihood of falling and loss of independence. Current clinical assessments of PD-related postural instability are based on a ret
