30% of older adults fall at least once per year, with 5% of falls resulting in fractures like hip fractures. Increased fall risk is associated with age, prior falls, use of multiple medications, visual impairments, gait disorders, and other factors. A study of over 3,000 older Dutch adults found that short-acting benzodiazepines are associated with increased fall risk, as are proton pump inhibitors though not to the extent of H2 blockers. Physical frailty and a history of falls are also predictive of future falls. Multifactorial fall prevention programs that address medical, behavioral and environmental risks have not consistently shown reductions in falls rates.
