Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Home accidents are a significant public health issue in developed and developing countries. Home refers to where older individuals spend most of their daily time, thus increasing their likelihood of experiencing any accidents at home. Home accidents are more common among older individuals and can lead to serious health consequences. Individuals aged 65 and above are particularly at high risk of home accidents due to physical, psychological, and social impairments. Musculoskeletal problems and sensory and motor function loss in this group increase the risk of accidents. Home accidents are assumed to be unintentional and can range from minor injuries to fatalities. These accidents can occur within the home and in surrounding areas such as garages, gardens, terraces, and stairs. While unintentional home and recreational injuries pose a risk for individuals aged 85 and older, outdoor injuries also pose a risk for younger, older individuals.
