  • Study design completion status and final sample size are not specified in the provided abstract
  • Whether cognitive frailty modifies the exercise-fall relationship or how the intervention compares to standard care outside a controlled trial setting remains unknown

Abstract or registry material supplied for assessment; source version 1. This is not a claim of full-text review.

The proposed trial will address the problem of how to effectively prevent subsequent falls in community-dwelling cognitively frail older adults with a history of falls.
In community-dwelling older adults with cognitive frailty and a history of falls, can a home-based exercise program with behavioural change techniques significantly reduce falls vs. health education (i.e., control; CON)?
