摘要：
Falls and fall-related injuries, such as fractures, are often the cause of pain, functional impairments, reduced quality of life and excess health-care costs and mortality among older adults. This Review focuses on evidence-based physical therapy approaches for the prevention of falls and fractures, including exercise, vibration training and improvement of safety at home and during periods of mobility, and highlights the benefits of multifaceted intervention strategies.
