Fall risk in adult family practice non-attenders : a cross-sectional study from Slovenia = Tveganje za padec med odraslimi redkimi obiskovalci ambulant družinske medicine : presečna raziskava iz SlovenijeRužić Gorenjec, Nina, 1986- ...Introduction: Not much is known about the fall risk among the adult population of those who rarely visit doctors. We wanted to determine the prevalence of increased fall risk in a population of ... family practice non-attenders and the factors associated with it. Methods: We included participants from family medicine practices in this cross-sectional study. To be included in the study, the participants had to be adults living in the community (home-dwelling people) who had not visited their chosen family physician in the last five years (non-attenders). The identification of the eligible persons was done through a search of electronic medical records, which yield 2,025 non-attenders. Community nurses collected data in the participants’ homes. The outcome measure was increased fall risk as assessed by the Morse fall scale: increased risk (≥25) vs. no risk. Results: The sample consisted of 1,945 patients (96.0% response rate) with a mean age of 60.4 years (range 20.5 to 99.7 years). An increased fall risk was determined in 482 or 24.8% (95% CI: [22.9, 26.8]) of the patients. The multivariate model showed a significant association of increased fall risk with higher age (p<0.001), lower systolic blood pressure (p=0.047), poor family function (p=0.016), increased risk of malnutrition (p=0.013), higher number of chronic diseases (p=0.027), higher pain intensity (p<0.001), lower self-assessment of current health (p=0.002), and higher dependence in daily activities (p<0.001). Conclusion: Non-attenders may have an increased risk of falling which depends on their health status and age. The inclusion of community nurses in primary healthcare teams could be of use not only to identify the non-attenders’ health needs, but also to better manage their health, especially the factors that were identified to be associated with greater fall risk.Vir: Zdravstveno varstvo : Slovenian journal of public health. - ISSN 0351-0026 (Letn. 62, št. 2, Jun. 2023, str. 76-86)Vrsta gradiva - članek, sestavni del ; neleposlovje za odrasleLeto - 2023Jezik - angleškiCOBISS.SI-ID - 146203651
