Objective

To investigate the incidence and influencing factors of moderate and severe fall-related injuries among the elderly in Guangzhou, Guangdong, China, thus informing evidence-based interventions for fall prevention in the elderly population.

Methods

To analyze the incurrence of moderate and severe fall-related injuries and identify influencing factors among the elderly patients, we collected data from 13 898 injury surveillance reports between January 1, 2015 and December 31, 2021 across four National Injury Surveillance Sentinel hospitals in Guangzhou.

Results

moderate and severe injuries accounted for 38.53% (n = 5 355) of cases. Multivariate unconditional logistic regression analysis identified the following risk factors: female, non-local household registration, age ≥ 70 years, history of falls, and activity-specific hazards emerged during walking (OR=1.118) and essential life activities, particularly in unspecified locations. Autumn occurrence and road/street environments of falls were the protective factors.

Conclusions

The incidence of moderate and severe fall-related injuries among elderly patients in Guangzhou is high. Key influencing factors include gender, age, household registration, history of falls, seasons, activities, and locations.
