30% of people with “severe” OH did not have symptoms. This complicates making the diagnosis, but they are at more risk of falls than their symptomatic counterparts (perhaps because they don’t get warning to sit down), says Briggs #BGSconf

It’s falls awareness week, in surgery we have been educating our staff the importance of vision and our falls risk patients. The staff have experienced impaired vision, alongside some fun facts and spot the danger pictures! #fallsweek #teamsurgery @YorkGillyGilly

"Every fall is a story and every story has a beginning, a middle and an end. Colleagues always ask me why I spend time asking people how they fell and what were they doing before the fall. This is an important source of intelligence" bgs.org.uk/blog/behind-ev…

Frailty is not a contraindication to prescribe exercise therapy, but rather one of the most important reasons to prescribe it. 🛑A message worth spreading 🛑 🧵Thread #exercise #PhysicalActivity #geriatricians #olderadults Ref: #bib26" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Would you want to know if you were going to develop dementia in future? Research suggests 74% would want to know if they had #Alzheimers before symptom onset #BGSconf
