A Self-report Home Environment Screening Tool for Determining Fall Risk in Iranian Older People
Objectives Older people are at risk of falling and its complications more than other age groups. Evaluation of environmental hazards requires time and money. So it seems necessary to design a self-report questionnaire for initial screening. This study aims to develop a self-report tool for falling risk assessment in Iranian older people. Methods & Materials After approval of the Ethics Committ...
متن کاملPosture Recognition Based Fall Detection System For Monitoring An Elderly Person In A Smart Home Environment
We propose a novel computer vision based fall detection system for monitoring an elderly person in a home care application. Background subtraction is applied to extract the foreground human body and the result is improved by using certain post-processing. Information from ellipse fitting and a projection histogram along the axes of the ellipse are used as the features for distinguishing differe...
متن کاملA multi-sensor approach for People Fall Detection in home environment
This paper presents a hardware and software framework for reliable fall detection in the home environment, with particular focus on the protection and assistance to the elderly. The integrated prototype includes three different sensors: a 3D Time-Of-Flight range camera, a wearable MEMS accelerometer and a microphone. These devices are connected with custom interface circuits to a central PC tha...
متن کاملAn Efficient approach to maintain and protect Human Health Based on Fall Detection Algorithm
The rapidly aging population not only causes long hospital waiting times and expensive hospital waits, but also it increases the time to fix an appointment, workload of doctors and medical practitioners. Managing the cost and quality of treatment and caring of seniors are becoming key pressing issues both in developed and developing countries. Diagnosing and continuous record of realtime data b...
متن کاملA Wavelet-Based Approach to Fall Detection
Falls among older people are a widely documented public health problem. Automatic fall detection has recently gained huge importance because it could allow for the immediate communication of falls to medical assistance. The aim of this work is to present a novel wavelet-based approach to fall detection, focusing on the impact phase and using a dataset of real-world falls. Since recorded falls r...
