Prognostic factors of falls in hospitalized adults and elderly: An epidemiological and clinical analysis.

Background: Falls are known to cause injuries ranging from minor to severe, resulting in local or systemic lesions. Addressing prognostic factors associated with falls is crucial for preventing this adverse event through the implementation of patient care protocols. This study aimed to explore the epidemiological, clinical, and pharmacological prognostic factors influencing falls in adult and elderly patients, assessing the timing and impact of these factors using survival curve analysis.
