Dr. Brian Patterson et al. used electronic health record data to evaluate whether routinely collected Hendrich II fall scores can predict returns to the emergency department (ED) for falls within 6 months. The investigators found that using the score alone, the odds of returning to the ED for a fall in 6 months were 1.23 times as high for every 1-point increase in the Hendrich II score. When routinely collected data on other fall risk factors was combined with the fall risk score, the screening performed much better.
