肌肉无力和平衡受损是老年人经历的许多福尔斯和跌倒损伤的潜在风险因素。预防跌倒的策略包括通过提高力量和平衡来降低跌倒风险的锻炼计划。我们开发了一个量身定制的、以家庭为基础的力量和平衡再培训计划，该计划已被证明在减少80岁及以上人群的福尔斯和中度跌倒损伤方面取得了成功。在这里，我们描述了一个简单的评估力量和平衡和内容和交付的福尔斯预防演习计划。
Muscle weakness and impaired balance are risk factors underlying many falls and fall injuries experienced by older people. Fall prevention strategies have included exercise programmes that lower the risk of falling by improving strength and balance. We have developed an individually tailored, home-based, strength and balance retraining programme, which has proven successful in reducing falls and moderate fall injuries in people aged 80 years and older. Here we describe a simple assessment of strength and balance and the content and delivery of a falls prevention exercise programme.
