Developing a Daily-use Fall Risk Assessment Device in Clinical Setting
Study Objectives Objective 1: Compare the fall risk assessment results between balance sensors, traditional tests, and clinical diagnoses. Objective 2: Improve the feasibility of using sensors to assess fall risk among older patients in the hospital. The investigators select Hong Kong as the region for the experiment. Specifically, the community clinics and daytime hospitals are the actual onsite locations for experimenting. The specific venues of these locations need an electrical power supply and a flat ground for conducting the device test. Patients will be recruited for the development and testing of a device for fall risk assessment, study participants will be involved in balancing assessments, and questionnaire surveys, their medical records will be accessed. And during these tests and questionnaire surveys, the investigators will take photos, videos, and or audio recordings.
