Design and Analysis for Fall Detection System Simplification
Published on: April 6, 2020
Abstract:
Multifactorial assessment and targeted intervention to reduce falls among older people has for some time been considered an effective intervention ( Gillespie et al 2003 ; Chang et al 2004 ). This practice normally involves identifying the risk status of individuals and then intervening to reduce such risks by, for example, medication review, offering professionally prescribed gait training, exercise programmes toimprove strength and balance, modification of environmental hazards and so on. It has been the cornerstone of UK NHS policy implemented by NICE ( 2004 ).
