Research Abstract |
We performed the study of Delphi technique to development of fall risk assessment tools. Our study identified 34 pediatric fall risk factors. We developed Children Fall Risk Assessment Tools "C-FRAT". We performed survey for 252 pediatric wards. Our study brought out validated fall prevention measures. We surveyed for 10.5% of pediatric patients in 6 wards using assessment tools for 6 months. Our study brought out the relationship between patient falls and risk factors and validity of C-FRAT. However it was not differenced in falls rate.
