SF2 Trial Summary

This trial will study if an exercise program can help reduce risk of falling in people, especially those at high risk & with lower socio-economic status. Results will also show if the program can be sustained with digital content.

Who is the study for?

This trial is for individuals aged 60 or older who can walk (with or without a cane or walker), read and speak English, have a low risk of falling according to the STEADI questionnaire, and have access to internet/computer with Zoom on a device with at least a 7-inch screen.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The study tests if digitally delivered exercises can prevent falls in people at higher fall risk from lower socio-economic backgrounds. It builds on prior research by measuring balance, posture, strength benefits, and checking if ongoing digital content helps maintain improvements post-12-week program.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

Since this trial involves digital exercise programs aimed at preventing falls, side effects may include typical exercise-related issues such as muscle soreness or strain but are generally expected to be minimal.
