A tailored plan to prevent bathroom falls in vulnerable adults: will it work?

NCT ID NCT07738354

First seen Jul 31, 2026 · Last updated Jul 31, 2026

Summary

This trial tests a personalized, multi-part program to prevent falls that happen while going to the toilet, a common and dangerous event for older adults and people with disabilities. Participants receive a thorough assessment of risk factors—like balance, muscle strength, urinary symptoms, and home environment—and then get a tailored mix of interventions, such as balance training, urinary management, and home modifications. The study tracks whether this approach reduces toileting-related falls and improves daily functioning over six months.
