Exercise-based fall prevention: can you be a bit more specific?

Mark D Grabiner et al. Exerc Sport Sci Rev. 2014 Oct.

Abstract

Trip-specific perturbation training reduces trip-related falls after laboratory-induced trips and, prospectively, in the community. Based on an emerging body of evidence, we hypothesize that using task-specific perturbation training as a stand-alone approach or in conjunction with conventional exercise-based approaches will improve the effectiveness of fall prevention interventions significantly.
