Thus the identification of fall-prone stroke patients is of
great importance. Studies have been carried out with the
aim of identifying risk factors predictive of falls, and a
number of such factors have been suggested. Postural
sway,the rate of rise in force in sit-to-stand movement,
increased motor response time to visual stimuli,
rightward-orienting bias among right hemisphere stroke
patients,and depressive symptomatology,have been
associated with increased fall risk. It has also been shown
that patients who experienced at least one fall had significantly
lower functional independence, balance, and arm,
foot, and leg motor scores compared with non-fallers.
Among community-dwelling stroke survivors, 1 study reported
that repeat fallers had significantly more reduced
arm function and activities of daily living (ADL) ability than
those who did not report any falls,and another studyshowed that accumulated deficits such as motor and sensory
impairments increased fall risk, whereas accumulated
motor, sensory, and visual impairments seemed to reduce
the risk of falling.Among community-dwelling women
with stroke onset more than 1 year earlier, self-perceived
difficulties with balance while dressing and self-perceived
residual balance problems proved to be independent risk
factors for falls.
