Giriş: Bu çalışmanın amacı, toplum içinde yaşayan yaşlılarda Uluslararası Düşme Etkinlik Skalasının Türkçe versiyonu ile değerlendirilen düşme korkusu ile denge arasındaki ilişkiyi araştırmaktı.Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışmaya 100 gönüllü dahil edildi. Katılımcılarda; Uluslararası Düşme Etkinlik Skalası ile düşme korkusu, Kalk ve Yürü Testi ile denge ve yürüme, Berg Denge Skalası ile denge, Modifiye Barthel İndeksi ile dizabilite düzeyi değerlendirildi.Bulgular: Uluslararası Düşme Etkinlik Skalası skorları ve Kalk ve Yürü Testi, kadınlarda ve 70 yaş üzerindekilerde anlamlı olarak yüksek, BDS skorları anlamlı olarak düşüktü (p<0.05). Uluslar arası Düşme Etkinlik Skalası skorları Kalk ve Yürü Testi ile pozitif, Berg Denge Skalası ile negatif yönde korele idi (p<0<001). Ayrıca yaş ile BDS arasında negatif korelasyon (p<0.05) ve yaş ile Kalk ve Yürü Testi ve Uluslararası Düşme Etkinlik Skalası arasında pozitif korelasyon saptandı (p<0.001). Yaş, Modified Barthel Indeksi, Kalk ve Yürü Testi ve Berg Denge Skalası skorları; Uluslar arası Düşme Etkinlik Skalası skoru ?24 olan katılımcılarda skoru <24 olan katılımcılara göre anlamlı olarak yüksekti (p<0.05). Yapılan regresyon analizinde, Uluslararası Düşme Etkinlik Skalası skorları ile en anlamlı ilişki Berg Denge Skalası skorları ve Kalk ve Yürü Testi arasındaydı (p<0.001). Uluslararası Düşme Etkinlik Skalası skorları ile yaş (p=0.004) ve cinsiyet (p=0.017) de ilişkiliydi.Sonuç: Toplumda yaşayan yaşlılarda düşme korkusu ile denge arasında olası bir ilişki vardır ve bu etkileşim geriatrik rehabilitasyonda özellikle de yaşlı kadınlarda göz önünde bulundurulmalıdır.

Toplum içinde yaşayan yaşlılarda düşme korkusu ve denge arasındaki ilişki

Introduction: The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between fear of falling and balance in community-dwelling older adults.Materials and Method: Study sample included 100 volunteers. The assessment of fear of falling was performed by Falls Efficacy Scale-International; mobility by Timed-up and Go Test, balance by Berg Balance Scale, and disability by Modified Barthel Index.Results: Falls Efficacy Scale-International and Timed-up and Go Test scores were significantly higher, and Berg Balance Scale -scores were significantly lower in women and in subjects older than 70 years (p<0.05). Falls Efficacy Scale-International scores were correlated with Timed-up and Go Test scores positively, and with Berg Balance Scale scores negatively (p<0.001). There was a negative correlation between age and Berg Balance Scale score (p<0.05), and a positive correlation between age and Timed-up and Go Test and Falls Efficacy Scale-International (p<0.001) scores. Age, Modified Barthel Index, Timed-up and Go Test, and Berg Balance Scale - scores were significantly higher in subjects with Falls Efficacy Scale-International score ?24 than subjects with Falls Efficacy Scale-International score <24 (p<0.05). Multiple regression analysis revealed that the most significant correlations with Falls Efficacy Scale-International scores were Berg Balance Scale and Timed-up and Go Test scores (p<0.001). Age (p=0.004) and gender (p=0.017) were associated with Falls Efficacy Scale-International scores.Conclusion: There is a possible relation between fear of falling and balance performance in older people and this interaction should be considered in geriatric rehabilitation especially in elderly women.
