fractures are the most frequent type of fall-related fracture, with
traumatic brain injuries second, and extremity injuries third.
>> The Centers for Disease Control
Approximately 30% of people ages 60 and older will fall
in any 12-month period.
>> Journal
of American Geriatrics Association
Recovery from concussion is slower among older adults,
young children and teens. And those who have had a
concussion are at higher risk of having another
concussion.
>>>
The Centers for Disease Control
People who sustain a single traumatic brain injury are
more likely to develop Alzheimer's-like symptoms later
in life.
>>The Center for Brain Injury and Repair,
PerelmanSchool of Medicine, the University of
Pennsylvania
Falls have become a health crisis. The frequency, morbidity,
and mortality rates of falls increase everyday. The cost
of falls is increasing at an even greater pace.
>> The Centers for Disease Control
One in 3 adults 65
and older falls at least once a year, with 1 out of 3 not able to
live independently as a result of the fall.
>>
The National Safety Council
A blow to the head that at first seems minor and does
not result in immediate pain or other symptoms can in
fact turn out to be a life-threatening brain injury.
>>
Duke University Medical Center's Neurosciences Critical
Care
Fear of falling is a common problem with serious
outcomes in older adults, such as reductions in levels
of physical activity, reduced ability to perform
activities of daily living, and future falling
episodes. >>Journal of the
