Falls are an increasing cause of mortality in an ever-growing aging population. The main factors to consider in reducing mortality rates due to falls are postural control, consisting of the vestibular, visual, and proprioceptive system, and perturbation response. This Neuro Forum article reviews recent literature highlighting the developmental changes that occur in aging populations and the possible avenues for interventions and training to mitigate fall risk.
随着人口老龄化的不断增长，跌倒已成为导致死亡率上升的一个日益严重的问题。为降低因跌倒导致的死亡率，需考虑主要因素包括姿势控制（由前庭、视觉和本体感觉系统组成）和对干扰的反应。本文通过神经学论坛回顾了最新文献，强调了衰老人群中发生的发育变化，以及可能的干预和训练途径来降低跌倒风险。
