Prevent Fall Injuries - What’s Wrong with the STRIDE Trial - FORD BREWER MD MPH

Episode Summary

According to the STRIDE trial recently published in NEJM, the number of injuries caused by falls has not declined despite intervention. Janice dismissed the said study as being not "evidence-based." In this video, Janice and I discussed falls, how we can prevent falls, and other fall prevention studies, programs, and guidelines (the Cochrane reviews, Otago, and CDC's STEADI). Here's the link to the NEJM article: https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa2002183
