Fall Trajectories in Older Men: Trajectories of Change by Age and Predictors for Future Fall Risk
Two distinct groups of high fall risk individuals were identified among 5 trajectory groups, those with steeply increasing fall risk and persistently high fall risk. Statistically significant characteristics for group assignment suggest that future fall risk of older men may be predictable at baseline.
