Exercise alone and various combinations of interventions reduces the risk of injurious falls in older adults

Benefits of exercise in Older Adults!

Tricco AC, Thomas SM, Veroniki AA, et al. Comparisons of interventions for preventing falls in older adults. A systematic review and meta-analysis. JAMA 2017;318(17):1687-1699.

Exercise alone; exercise combined with vision assessment/treatment; exercise combined with vision assessment/treatment and environmental assessment/modification; and clinic-level quality improvement strategies combined with multifactorial assessment/treatment and calcium and vitamin D supplementation are all effective interventions for reducing the risk of injurious falls in older adults.

Synopsis
These investigators thoroughly searched multiple databases including MEDLINE, EMBASE, the Cochrane Register, Ageline, and reference lists of relevant trials and reviews for randomized controlled trials that examined fall-prevention interventions for adults 65 years or older. Study authors were also contacted for unpublished studies or additional data. Two investigators independently reviewed all potential studies for inclusion criteria and methodologic quality using standard risk-of-bias scoring tools. Conflicts were resolved by consensus agreement with a third reviewer. The primary outcome of interest was the number of injurious falls and fall-related hospitalizations. A total of 283 randomized trials and 20 companion reports (N = 159,910 participants) met inclusion criteria. The overall risk of bias among the studies was moderate, with an unclear risk of bias for allocation concealment, contamination, and selective outcome reporting. A funnel plot analysis found no evidence of publication bias. 

Conclusions:

   1.  Four interventions were significantly associated with a reduced risk of injurious falls compared with usual care: exercise alone; combined exercise and vision assessment and treatment; combined exercise, vision assessment and treatment, and environmental assessment and modification; and combined clinic-level quality improvement strategies, multifactorial assessment and treatment, calcium supplementation and vitamin D supplementation. 

2.  Combined exercise and vision assessment and treatment was the most effective intervention. In a subgroup analysis, the best intervention for reducing the risk of hip fracture was combined osteoporosis treatment, calcium supplementation, and vitamin D supplementation.

Pacey Cuff Fitting Strategy

Guidance on Fitting your new Pacey Cuff

     Over View

    New users of the Pacey Cuff Urethral Control Device occasionally have issues around sizing and getting the performance from the cuff that they need.  There is a wide range of functional overlap between the existing devices of size Large, Medium, and Small so that , in fact,  most users can use all of the sizes if they are adjusted appropriately. 

    Multiple size users of the Pacey Cuff

    Some users of Pacey Cuff use multiple sizes for example - for day and night use. The Medium nay be worn during the day and small at night for variation of the footprint on the penis. While this is not necessary it illustrates that most of the size issues are adjustment issues. Medium size anatomy can often accommodate  Large, Medium, and Small devices.

    Pacey Cuff size setup.

1. The device may be used with the opening gap on the left or right - you will use your dominant hand to compress the upper and lower parts.

2. The bottom part may be adjusted to the left or right so, to begin check that it is adjusted to the 3 position .

3. Place the device on for the first time and thread the strap through the strap guide slot and take up any slack in the strap. Then aim to compress the upper part and the lower part with your dominant hand very firmly to generate compression. Then apply the strap if possible to 3 in the midline and lay it down to engage the velcro. For many users the 3 setting will be comfortable and will achieve continence. The device should be squarely on the penis so that the urethra at the back is compressed in the midline.

4. The device may be adjusted in .5 cm increments as required. If  continence is achieved at 4 , for example,  then one should look at the lower part and adjust it to 4 so that it matches the strap number on the upper hood.

   Anatomy of importance

1. The urethra conducts the urine and is found  in the midline below the penis. The Urethra is the target of our compression.

2. The blood vessels are protected by the dorsal hood.
