What is Functional Decline After Nonhospitalized Injuries about?
This study estimates the cumulative incidence of functional decline in older adults following nonhospitalized injuries assessed in Canadian emergency departments, finding a 17% decline over 6 months. Key determinants of this decline include older age, frailty, occasional use of walking devices, and limited outings per week. The findings suggest the need for targeted interventions to identify and assist at-risk seniors post-discharge.
