Robot tool may predict falls in older adults
NCT ID NCT07582900
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at data from 355 adults aged 20 to 95 who had their fall risk assessed using the Hunova robotic platform. The goal was to understand how well the platform measures fall risk and to improve fall prevention programs. Falls are a major cause of injury and death in older adults, and better risk assessment could help keep people independent longer.
