First seen Jan 27, 2026 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 16 times

Summary

This study looks at how well older adults and rehab patients understand their own walking abilities and whether that affects their risk of falling. About 100 people aged 60-85 will take cognitive tests, fill out questionnaires, and walk with sensors. The goal is to see if poor self-awareness is a hidden risk factor for falls, which could lead to better prevention strategies.
