An analysis of fall incidence rate and risk factors in an inpatient rehabilitation unit: Aretrospective study.
CONCLUSION: This study suggests Morse FS, TUG, and age in the routine initial assessment upon admission in a rehabilitation setting, as key variables for screening the risk of fall. Additionally, the cutoff scores of Morse FS and TUG were observed to be more rigid than other clinical settings.
