Risk Factors for Falls and Fall-related Injuries Associated With Mild Neurocognitive Disorders

Study Description
Brief Summary:
This study evaluates the risk for incident falls and fall-related injuries at the onset of neurocognitive disorders in older adults participating in the Canadian Longitudinal Study

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment
Old Age Fall Injury Neurocognitive Disorders Other: Observational

Detailed Description:

Falls are frequent events in adults over age 65 (up to 30% each year in Canada). They are a major Canadian public health concern, which negatively impacts health and quality of life of fallers, and health care system. Neurocognitive disorders are strongly associated with falls and fall-related injuries.

Several clinical characteristics, identified previously as risk factors for falls in the older population and in older adults with neurocognitive disorders are selected in the Canadian Longitudinal Study On Aging. The performance criteria of different statistical models will be compared for the association of neurocognitive disorders with falls and fall-related injuries. Six linear statistical models (i.e., logistic regression, discriminant analysis, Bayes network algorithm, decision tree, random forest, boosted trees), Factor Mixture Models and two different artificial neural network (i.e., multilayer perceptron and the neuroevolution of augmenting topologies).

Arms and Interventions
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Fall Injury [ Time Frame: 18 months ]
    Incident falls occurring during the 18 months. Information related fall- injuries will also be collected, including fractures, dislocations, voluminous intracranial or peripheral hematomas, trauma of the face, and cutaneous lacerations of significant size and/or deeper than the hypodermis, possibly resulting in medical consultation or hospitalization.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Auditory verbal memory disorder [ Time Frame: around 20 years ]
    Investigator will use the Rey Auditory Verbal Test that evaluates the auditory-verbal memory.

  2. The Mental Alteration Test [ Time Frame: around 20 years ]
    Investigator will evaluate the amnesia
