Abstract Summary
The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of potential fallers on fall analysis. 79 elderly people aged 60 years or older were participated in this experiment. Subjects were divided into four groups (GROUP1: non-faller - non-faller n = 46, GROUP2: non-faller - faller n = 12, GROUP3: faller - non-faller n = 13 , GROUP4: non-falling - non-falling n = 8). The groups were classified into three subgroups(TNF; Subject without fall experience within 1 year , ONF; Subjects without fall experience within 1 year except potential fallers, F; Subject with fall experience within 1 year) for consider protentional fallers. TUG experiments were conducted, and 48 variables related to Gait, Turn and Turn to Sit variables were extracted through IMU (APDM Inc., Portland, OR, USA). Independent T test (α = 0.05) was performed for the first year TUG variables of each group. Significantly different variable between ONF and
