Therefore, this study aims at determining factors relating FALLing of the aged suffering from type 2 diabetes.Methods: A total of 60 years old or older with type 2 diabetes that referred to selected hospitals of Tehran University of Medical Sciences using continues method. Cases that had experienced FALLing during last year and controls that had no such experience were assigned to two separate groups. Questionnaire used in this study included demographic data and factors relating FALLing. Data obtained were analyzed using descriptive statistics, independent t- test, Chi square and logistic regression.Results: Results showed that postural blood pressure (p=0.02) dizziness (p=0.05), fecal incontinency (p<0.01), auditory disorder (p<0.01), visual disorder (p<0.01), pain in the lower extremity (p=0.027), taking anti-coagulation medicine (p=0.017) had a significant correlation with FALLing.Conclusion: Multivariate logistic regression illustrated that fecal incontinency and auditory disorder happened along with FALLing in the aged suffering from type 2 diabetes.
