BACKGROUND AND AIMS: This study aimed to identify injury patterns and contributing factors among older adults living in Tabriz City.
METHODS: A stratified random sampling method was used to select eligible participants. The sample size was determined by the population, with contributions calculated via a formula and simple random selection. The study analyzed data from 350 individuals aged over 60, residing in 350 households, using χ 2 tests and binary logistic regression for statistical evaluation.
RESULTS: The results showed that 177 participants (50.5%) experienced at least one type of home-related injury. Notably, women were found to be 5.1 times more likely to sustain an injury than men (CI: 95%; 2.38-11.08). Additionally, older adults who required assistance with instrumental activities of daily living (IADLs) had at least 7.81 times higher risk of injury compared to their independent counterparts (CI: 95%; 7.81-118.24). Furthermore, the risk of injury was 6.1 times greater for those with no or only one potential caregiver, compared to older individuals with multiple caregivers (CI: 2.56-14.96).
CONCLUSION: These findings emphasize the need to enhance home safety modification, particularly for older adults living alone. They underscore the importance of the challenges related to IADLs, highlighting the necessity for targeted interventions in injury prevention, design, and policy development.
