SECURITY IN COMPLEX ENVIRONMENTS BECOMES MORE IMPORTANT

The direct consequences of a fall can vary from minor injuries, small bruises (28%), to severe soft tissue injuries (11.4%) and fractures of bones (5%). A hip fracture is the most common serious, in 20% of cases this fracture leads to immobility and 14% to 36% of cases leads to death after one year.2
A fall can have legal consequences. Reporting the possibility of a fall is not enough, it is essential to focus on implementing solutions focusing on the risk factors that cause them.
A fall is an involuntary event that causes the balance and that precipitates the individual to the ground against his will. Definition World Health Organization.
FALLS ARE THE SECOND LEADING CAUSE OF DEATH WORLDWIDE FROM UNINTENTIONAL INJURIES
- 37.3 million falls each year.
- 424,000 fatal falls.
- Predominant cause of injury in the elderly advanced.
- They reduce mobility and independence.
- They increase the risk of premature death. (WHO – 2012)
According to the Joint Commission International, the falls are ranked sixth on the list of sentinel events. The falls can occur in any area of care. The health and fall rates vary according to the practice and fundamentally in the environment.
As a consequence of a fall there are different types of injury, it can be a simple discomfort, a minor injury, a moderate injury where it is required suture, a major injury where it will be necessary to treat fractures either with a cast or surgery or even can lead to death.
The risk is the combination of the probability that one or more dangerous events occur and the severity of the damage that can be caused.[/az_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/6″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/6″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”2/3″][az_blank_divider height_value=”10″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/6″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/6″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”2/3″][az_single_image image=”1008″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/6″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/6″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”2/3″][az_blank_divider height_value=”10″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/6″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/6″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”2/3″][az_column_text]1.
