ER chatbot aims to cut fall injuries in seniors
NCT ID NCT07028463
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether giving older adults (65+) who are at high risk for falls a link to a chatbot (Livi) can help them find and join fall prevention programs. The goal is to reduce repeat ER visits for falls. Over 20,000 participants will be enrolled across multiple ERs.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Livi Chatbot referral
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could provide a simple, automated way to connect older adults with fall prevention programs, reducing injuries and ER visits.
- What could go wrong
- This is a behavioral intervention, not a drug. Success depends on patients actually engaging with the chatbot and programs. It may not reduce falls if patients don't follow through.
