| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study was to propose a method for evaluating fall risk of the elderly by the visual tracking test which involves pursuing a moving target by COP displayed on a PC monitor. Aging change was found in the visual tracking test, elderly with high risk of falling was inferior in horizontal balance. However there was no strong correlation with the fall risk investigation. From the above, it was suggested that the result of the visual tracking (horizontal balance) test may be one measure when screening risk of falling in the elderly.
