Fall Risk, Fall Prevention

This prospective observational study will describe changes in physical function and fall risk among adults aged 70 years or older who participate in the routine Frailty and Falls Prevention Program at the Centro Integral de Saúde de Lalín. Clinical assessments obtained before the program (T0) and at its completion (T1, approximately 8-12 weeks later) will be analyzed. The study does not assign treatment or change routine care.

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy of Whole-body vibration in improving postural control, risk of falling, and quality of life in patients with chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does Whole-body vibration have a significant effect on postural control, risk of falling, and quality of life in patients with chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy? Researchers will compare whole body vibration in addition to traditional exercise to traditional exercise alone to see if Whole-body vibration have a significant effect on postural control, risk of falling, and quality of life in patients with chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy. Participants will: * age between 30-60 years old. * be on chemotherapy for at least one cycle as a treatment of malignant tumors with peripheral neuropathy. * have mild to moderate neuropathy according to mTNS. * be assigned randomly into two equal groups (control group (A) and study group (B)). * Take three sessions per week for eight weeks. * The control group (A) will be treated by selected physical therapy treatment (Strength resistive training, Stretching \& flexibility, Balance training) * The study group (B) will be treated with selected physical therapy treatment in addition to whole-body vibration therapy.

Proximal femoral fractures are associated with increased mortality in older adults and may contribute to loss of functional independence, resulting in a higher risk of long-term institutionalization. The SIOT 2021 guidelines emphasize that management of older patients with proximal femoral fracture (FPF) requires a multidisciplinary approach, ideally integrated across all phases of care, including rehabilitation and secondary prevention at the community level, according to a continuity-of-care model that incorporates the implementation of Fracture Liaison Services. Multiple clinical, social, and environmental factors influence fall risk. Falls are also associated with psychological consequences. Age-related reductions in muscle strength contribute to progressive functional decline, increased morbidity and mortality related to falls, reduced quality of life, depression, and hospitalization. Sarcopenia is characterized by both quantitative and qualitative reductions in muscle tissue, including progressive replacement of contractile tissue with fibrous and adipose tissue. The European Working Group on Sarcopenia in Older People (EWGSOP), in its updated consensus (EWGSOP2), identifies low muscle strength as the primary parameter of sarcopenia, accompanied by a significant and generalized reduction in muscle mass. A use-case model dedicated to patients with sarcopenia describes typical demographic and social characteristics, associated comorbidities, and specific care needs, with the aim of identifying the most appropriate management pathways. This study adopts a person-centered approach to design, validate, and implement an integrated strategy for fall prevention, taking into account the multiple determinants of fall risk and related adverse health outcomes.

The objective of the study is to determine the comparative effects of Otago Exercise Program and Kitchen Sink Balance Exercises on strength, fall risk and functional mobility on elderly. This study would include total 56 participants which would be divided into two groups, 28 each. Convenience Sampling will be used and randomly assigned into two groups through sealed envelope method. Intervention Group A received Otago Exercise Program and Group B received Kitchen Sink Balance Exercises. Both groups received intervention for 45 minutes per session, 3 times a week, and for a total of 8 weeks. Assessment was done at the baseline, after 4 weeks and after 8 weeks.
