Advancing fall risk prediction in older adults with cognitive frailty: A machine learning approach using 2-year clinical data.

PloS one
Falls are a critical concern in older adults with cognitive frailty (CF). However, previous studies have not fully examined whether machine learning models can predict falls in older individuals with CF. The 2-year longitudinal data set from the Kore...

Human fall direction recognition in the indoor and outdoor environment using multi self-attention RBnet deep architectures and tree seed optimization.

Scientific reports
Falling poses a significant health risk to the elderly, often resulting in severe injuries if not promptly addressed. As the global population increases, the frequency of falls increases along with the associated financial burden. Hence, early detect...

Performance of Natural Language Processing versus International Classification of Diseases Codes in Building Registries for Patients With Fall Injury: Retrospective Analysis.

JMIR medical informatics
BACKGROUND: Standardized registries, such as the International Classification of Diseases (ICD) codes, are commonly built using administrative codes assigned to patient encounters. However, patients with fall injury are often coded using subsequent i...

Development and Validation of a Rule-Based Natural Language Processing Algorithm to Identify Falls in Inpatient Records of Older Adults: Retrospective Analysis.

JMIR aging
BACKGROUND: In order to address fall underestimation by the International Classification of Diseases (ICD) in clinical settings, information from clinical notes could be incorporated via natural language processing (NLP) as a possible solution. Howev...

A lightweight approach to gait abnormality detection for At Home health monitoring.

Computers in biology and medicine
Gait abnormality detection is a growing application in machine learning based health assessment due to its potential in domains from clinical health reviews to at home health monitoring. This latter application is of particular use for older adults, ...

[How older people are learning through artificial intelligence-assisted health technologies : Cute seals and nervous fall sensors].

Zeitschrift fur Gerontologie und Geriatrie
BACKGROUND: With the growing use of artificial intelligence (AI) in various areas of life, AI technologies are increasingly being developed for the nursing and care of older people and are intended to contribute to greater safety for older people in ...

Fall recognition using a three stream spatio temporal GCN model with adaptive feature aggregation.

Scientific reports
The prevention of falls is paramount in modern healthcare, particularly for the elderly, as falls can lead to severe injuries or even fatalities. Additionally, the growing incidence of falls among the elderly, coupled with the urgent need to prevent ...

Remote monitoring of Tai Chi balance training interventions in older adults using wearable sensors and machine learning.

Scientific reports
Tai Chi, an Asian martial art, is renowned for its health benefits, particularly in promoting healthy aging among older adults, improving balance, and reducing fall risk. However, methodological challenges hinder the objective measurement of adherenc...

Integrating machine learning and a large language model to construct a domain knowledge graph for reducing the risk of fall-from-height accidents.

Accident; analysis and prevention
Fall-from-height (FFH) accidents remain a major source of workplace injuries and fatalities. Fall protection systems (FPS) are critical for preventing falls in the work-at-height (WAH) environment. However, challenges in designing and selecting effec...

Utilizing machine learning to identify fall predictors in India's aging population: findings from the LASI.

BMC geriatrics
BACKGROUND: Depression has a detrimental effect on an individual's mental and musculoskeletal strength multiplying the risk of fall incidents. The current study aims to investigate the association between depression and falls in older adults using ma...
