- W2078014816 abstract "Principals . Throughout the world, falls are a major public health problem and a socioeconomic burden. Nevertheless there is little knowledge about how the injury types may be related to the aetiology and setting of the fall, especially in the elderly. We have therefore analysed all patients presenting with a fall to our Emergency Department (ED) over the past five years. Methods . Our retrospective data analysis comprised adult patients admitted to our Emergency Department between January 1, 2006, and December 31, 2010, in relation to a fall. Results . Of a total of 6357 patients 78% (<mml:math xmlns:mml=http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML id=M1><mml:mrow><mml:mi>n</mml:mi><mml:mo>=</mml:mo><mml:mn>4957</mml:mn></mml:mrow></mml:math>) patients were younger than 75 years. The main setting for falls was patients home (<mml:math xmlns:mml=http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML id=M2><mml:mrow><mml:mi>n</mml:mi><mml:mo>=</mml:mo><mml:mn>2239</mml:mn></mml:mrow></mml:math>, 35.3%). In contrast to the younger patients, the older population was predominantly female (56.3% versus 38.6%;<mml:math xmlns:mml=http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML id=M3><mml:mrow><mml:mi>P</mml:mi><mml:mo><</mml:mo><mml:mn>0.0001</mml:mn></mml:mrow></mml:math>). Older patients were more likely to fall at home and suffer from medical conditions (all<mml:math xmlns:mml=http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML id=M4><mml:mrow><mml:mi>P</mml:mi><mml:mo><</mml:mo><mml:mn>0.0001</mml:mn></mml:mrow></mml:math>). Injuries to the head (<mml:math xmlns:mml=http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML id=M5><mml:mrow><mml:mi>P</mml:mi><mml:mo><</mml:mo><mml:mn>0.0001</mml:mn></mml:mrow></mml:math>) and to the lower extremity (<mml:math xmlns:mml=http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML id=M6><mml:mrow><mml:mi>P</mml:mi><mml:mo><</mml:mo><mml:mn>0.019</mml:mn></mml:mrow></mml:math>) occurred predominantly in the older population. Age was the sole predictor for recurrent falls (OR 1.2,<mml:math xmlns:mml=http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML id=M7><mml:mrow><mml:mi>P</mml:mi><mml:mo><</mml:mo><mml:mn>0.0001</mml:mn></mml:mrow></mml:math>). Conclusion . Falls at home are the main class of falls for all age groups, particularly in the elderly. Fall prevention strategies must therefore target activities of daily living. Even though falls related to sports mostly take place in the younger cohort, a significant percentage of elderly patients present with falls related to sporting activity. Falls due to medical conditions were most likely to result in mild traumatic brain injury." @default.
