falls鈥攐r the experimental study intervention in which individualized care plans will be developed and administered. The care plans will be presented to the participant鈥檚 primary care physician for review, modification, and approval and will include proven fall risk reduction interventions that can be implemented by the research team, physicians and other health care providers, caregivers and community-based organizations. The intervention centers on the concept of a falls care manager working with each participant鈥檚 primary care provider to develop the plans and monitor success. <br></p> <p>The research team plans to enroll <strong>6,000 adults age 75 and older</strong>, living in the community, with one or more modifiable risk factors for falls. The first year of the study was a pilot phase, during which many aspects of the intervention were tested with small numbers of people across 10 clinical sites. The enrollment for the full trial started on August 1, 2015 and will take place over 18 months. The participants will be followed for up to three years.</p> <p>The <strong>primary trial outcome</strong> is reduction in serious fall injuries, including non-spinal fractures, joint dislocation, head injuries, lacerations, internal injuries, and hypothermia. Secondary outcomes include reduction in all falls that cause injuries; all falls regardless of injury, indicators of well-being, physical function and disability, and anxiety and depression.</p> <p>More Information on STRIDE can be found at: <a href="https://www.stride-study.org/">www.stride-study.org</a></p></div></div><div class="generic-paragraph"><div class="heading__container"><h2 class="generic-paragraph__heading" id="the-yale-data-coordinating-center-(dcc)">The Yale Data Coordinating Center (DCC)</h2><div class="heading__anchor-copy-button-container"><button type="button" aria-label="Copy Link" class="anchor-copy-button anchor-copy-button--color-mode--dark"><span class="anchor-copy-button__content"><span class="anchor-copy-button__text">Copy Link</span><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xml:space="preserve" viewBox="0 0 24 24" focusable="false" class="anchor-copy-button__icon"><path d="M5.253 21.497a5.21 5.21 0 0 1-3.712-1.535A5.21 5.21 0 0 1 .006 16.25c0-1.404.545-2.722 1.535-3.712l4.773-4.774a5.22 5.22 0 0 1 3.716-1.539c1.402 0 2.719.544 3.708 1.531a5.225 5.225 0 0 1 .538 6.804.75.75 0 0 1-1.048.165.74.74 0 0 1-.299-.489.75.75 0 0 1 .134-.558 3.73 3.73 0 0 0-.384-4.86 3.73 3.73 0 0 0-2.649-1.094 3.73 3.73 0 0 0-2.655 1.099l-4.774 4.774a3.754 3.754 0 0 0 0 5.303c.707.707 1.649 1.096 2.652 1.096s1.945-.389 2.652-1.096l.932-.932a.744.744 0 0 1 1.06 0 .744.744 0 0 1 0 1.06l-.932.932a5.2 5.2 0 0 1-3.712 1.537"></path><path d="M13.978 18.024a5.21 5.21 0 0 1-3.709-1.535 5.22 5.22 0 0 1-.536-6.803.75.75 0 0 1 1.047-.166.75.75 0 0 1 .3.49.75.75 0 0 1-.134.558 3.73 3.73 0 0 0 .383 4.859 3.73 3.73 0 0 0 2.65 1.096 3.73 3.73 0 0 0 2.654-1.1l4.773-4.773c.708-.708 1.098-1.65 1.098-2.652s-.39-1.943-1.098-2.652c-.707-.707-1.649-1.096-2.652-1.096s-1.945.389-2.652 1.096l-.75.75a.744.744 0 0 1-1.06 0c-.142-.141-.22-.33-.22-.53s.078-.389.22-.53l.75-.75c.99-.99 2.309-1.536 3.712-1.536s2.722.545 3.712 1.536a5.21 5.21 0 0 1 1.538 3.712 5.21 5.21 0 0 1-1.538 3.712l-4.773 4.773a5.21 5.21 0 0 1-3.711 1.54z"></path></svg></span></button></div></div><div class="generic-paragraph__text"><p> <strong>The Yale Data Coordinating Center (DCC)</strong> is a partnership between the Yale Center for Analytical Sciences, and the Yale Program on Aging (POA)/Older Americans Independence Center.

care—primarily information about preventing falls—or the experimental study intervention in which individualized care plans will be developed and administered. The care plans will be presented to the participant’s primary care physician for review, modification, and approval and will include proven fall risk reduction interventions that can be implemented by the research team, physicians and other health care providers, caregivers and community-based organizations. The intervention centers on the concept of a falls care manager working with each participant’s primary care provider to develop the plans and monitor success.\r\n<br></p>\r\n<p>The research team plans to enroll <strong>6,000 adults age 75 and older</strong>, living in the community, with one or more modifiable risk factors for falls. The first year of the study was a pilot phase, during which many aspects of the intervention were tested with small numbers of people across 10 clinical sites. The enrollment for the full trial started on August 1, 2015 and will take place over 18 months. The participants will be followed for up to three years.</p>\r\n<p>The <strong>primary trial outcome</strong> is reduction in serious fall injuries, including non-spinal fractures, joint dislocation, head injuries, lacerations, internal injuries, and hypothermia.

The care plans will be presented to the participant’s primary care physician for review, modification, and approval and will include proven fall risk reduction interventions that can be implemented by the research team, physicians and other health care providers, caregivers and community-based organizations. The intervention centers on the concept of a falls care manager working with each participant’s primary care provider to develop the plans and monitor success.\r\rThe research team plans to enroll 6,000 adults age 75 and older, living in the community, with one or more modifiable risk factors for falls. The first year of the study was a pilot phase, during which many aspects of the intervention were tested with small numbers of people across 10 clinical sites. The enrollment for the full trial started on August 1, 2015 and will take place over 18 months. The participants will be followed for up to three years.\rThe primary trial outcome is reduction in serious fall injuries, including non-spinal fractures, joint dislocation, head injuries, lacerations, internal injuries, and hypothermia. Secondary outcomes include reduction in all falls that cause injuries; all falls regardless of injury, indicators of well-being, physical function and disability, and anxiety and depression.\rMore Information on STRIDE can be found at: www.stride-study.org","imageMetaData":null,"videoMetaData":null,"audioMetaData":null,"author":null,"pageType":null,"publishDate":null,"canonicalUrl":null,"isNoIndex":false}}}],"sidebarComponents":[],"contextNavigation":{"siteTitle":"Geriatrics","isTopLevelPage":false,"navigationItems":[{"link":{"isCurrentLink":false,"rootOrganizationPrefix":null,"currentLinkUrl":null,"url":"/internal-medicine/geriatrics","text":"Home"},"type":"subLevelIndicator","isActive":false,"isHomeLink":true},{"link":{"isCurrentLink":false,"rootOrganizationPrefix":null,"currentLinkUrl":null,"url":"/internal-medicine/geriatrics/research","text":"Research"},"type":"subLevelIndicator","isActive":false,"isHomeLink":false},{"link":{"isCurrentLink":false,"rootOrganizationPrefix":null,"currentLinkUrl":null,"url":"/internal-medicine/geriatrics/research/pepper","text":"Pepper Center"},"type":"pageLink","isActive":false,"isHomeLink":false},{"link":{"isCurrentLink":false,"rootOrganizationPrefix":null,"currentLinkUrl":null,"url":"/internal-medicine/geriatrics/research/disability","text":"Center for Disability and Disabling Disorders"},"type":"pageLink","isActive":false,"isHomeLink":false},{"link":{"isCurrentLink":true,"rootOrganizationPrefix":null,"currentLinkUrl":"/internal-medicine/geriatrics/research/stridestudy","url":"/internal-medicine/geriatrics/research/stridestudy","text":"STRIDE Study"},"type":"pageLink","isActive":true,"isHomeLink":false},{"link":{"isCurrentLink":false,"rootOrganizationPrefix":null,"currentLinkUrl":null,"url":"/internal-medicine/geriatrics/research/conferences","text":"Aging Conferences"},"type":"pageLink","isActive":false,"isHomeLink":false},{"link":{"isCurrentLink":false,"rootOrganizationPrefix":null,"currentLinkUrl":null,"url":"/internal-medicine/geriatrics/research/patient-priorities-care","text":"Patient Priorities Care"},"type":"pageLink","isActive":false,"isHomeLink":false}]}}</script> <script>window['applicationSettings'] = {"shouldShowSuppressedImageWarnings":false,"shouldShowBugReportButton":false,"shouldShowDownloadAsWordButton":false,"captchaKey":"a46dfca5-98da-4ec7-83e2-16980be648d0","facebookShareUrl":"https://www.facebook.com/dialog/share?app_id=604142276782606&display=popup&href=","isSearchFeedbackEnabled":true,"isSearchAnalyticsEnabled":true,"siteimproveScriptUrl":"https://siteimproveanalytics.com/js/siteanalyze_373.js","radarKey":"prj_live_pk_e9bc38cc9ac871b02332c0d599d7a893c03ad94d","mediaStatistics":{"baseUrl":"https://media-statistics-prod.ysmdevs.com","apiKey":"249c64e3-d0cc-45ed-97a0-5d3106411485","isEnabled":true}};</script> <noscript id="modern__LOADABLE_REQUIRED_CHUNKS__">[6602,3053]</noscript><noscript id="modern__LOADABLE_REQUIRED_CHUNKS___ext">{"namedChunks":["modules-page-components-ComponentWrapper","features-generic-content-components-GenericContent","modules-footer-components-Footer"]}</noscript> <script async data-chunk="main" src="https://cdn1.medicine.yale.edu/build/main.es2015.6e84018dd733df386502.js" type="module" crossorigin="anonymous"></script> <script async data-chunk="features-generic-content-components-GenericContent" src="https://cdn1.medicine.yale.edu/build/6602.es2015.ad0250b323ceb5faf829.js" type="module" crossorigin="anonymous"></script> <script async data-chunk="modules-footer-components-Footer" src="https://cdn1.medicine.yale.edu/build/3053.es2015.359573b73638d4069b34.js" type="module" crossorigin="anonymous"></script> <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://use.typekit.net/eqf4dwf.css" as="style" crossorigin>  <script async type="text/plain" data-cookiecategory="analytics" src="https://siteimproveanalytics.com/js/siteanalyze_373.js"></script> </body> </html>
