Downton Fall Risk Index is an instrument aimed at assessing the risks of falls. The instrument has shown high sensitivity and lower specificity but deemed as having adequate predictive accuracy for falls among older people ( Rosendahl et al., 2003). The older people are assessed through 11 different risk factors which are grouped into five categories: Each of the 11 risk factors gives either a 0 or 1 yielding a maximum score of 11.https://www.researchgate.net/figure/The-Downton-fall-risk-in...
