Abstract

Abstract

Objective To investigate the status and impact factors of fall among elderly people in Wuhan Province, so as to provide scientific basis for preventing falls among elderly. Methods A total of 387 476 elders were collected by questionnaire survey and medical examination from health status census on all elder people aged over 65 in Wuhan. SAS 9.4 was used for descriptive analysis, chi-square test and multivariate Logistic regression analysis. Results The report rate of falls among elderly people in 2018 was 3.44%. The rate in urban area(4.42%) was higher than that in rural area(2.39%)and the rate in female(4.22%) was higher than that in male(2.47%). 46.48% falls occurred at home. Sprains/strains(accounted for 31.07%) was the mainly fall injury. Logistic regression analysis showed that female, slightly or moderate dependent self-care ability, hands cannot put behind the head, could not pick up things on the floor, osteoarticular diseases, eye disease and stroke were the main risk factors of falls in elderly people. Conclusions The report rate of fall in elderly people is 3.44%. In this study, weakened self-care ability, diminished exercise ability, osteoarticular diseases, eye disease, stroke are the major risk factors for falls in the elderly people.
