Abstract

Objective: This study aimed to compare ELDERLY FALLers and non FALLers by balance test under DUAL TASKs conditions.Materials & Methods: This study was a analyse- comparative study. Subjects were chosen from three parks of Tehran. Subjects were 20 older adults with no history of FALLs (aged 72.60±5 years) and 21 older adults with a history of 2 or more FALLs in the last one year (aged 74.50±6 Years). All subjects performed SPEED GAIT test under 3 conditions (speed gait, SPEED GAIT with numbers counter randomly [speed gait cognitive], and SPEED GAIT while carrying a full cup of water [speed gait manual]). Data was analysed from multivariate analysis with SPSS 17.Results: The results showed significant difference between ELDERLY FALLers and non FALLers in FALL risk composed dependent variable (P=0.0005), as the non FALLers had greater score than ELDERLY FALLers.Conclusion: Consequently, we can apply the Gait Speed test under both DUAL TASK conditions (Cognitive and Motor) for identification of risk of FALLing in ELDERLY adults with and without of FALLing history.
