Digital home program to prevent falls in older adults
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study tests whether a guided digital exercise program done at home can lower fall risk and improve safety for people age 65 and older. You’d likely use a device/app and follow a plan for light-to-moderate activity.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be older than 65
