Elderly patients after index falls presenting to the emergency center without inpatient admission: trajectories and needs of this high-risk group as a basis for the development of tailored interventions for the elderly
The BMBF-funded project SeFallED is carried out in collaboration with the Division of Geriatrics. This study aims to investigate trajectories and needs of elderly patients after index fall with presentation to the emergency department directly discharged. Since this group of persons represents a so far little-studied high-risk group for further falls, the aim of the study is to provide a basis for the development of targeted interventions for older persons.
