Can a fitbit and a coach stop seniors from falling?
NCT ID NCT04851405
Summary
This study is testing two ways to deliver a proven exercise program designed to prevent falls in older adults living at home. Researchers are comparing the traditional method against a new coaching approach where physiotherapists use a Fitbit to give feedback. They will measure how well the program is delivered, how many falls occur, and whether the new method is a cost-effective way to keep seniors safer over two years.
