Abstract
Abstract Falls is one of the major adverse outcomes of frailty and sarcopenia, and may be considered a downstram consequence of these emerging geriatric syndromes. Frailty consists of both physical and cognitive components, which lead to increased falls risk. Community screening for frailty and sarcopenia may be included as an important public health measure, to be followed by more detailed falls risk assessment requiring various measurements. At the same time falls prevention or rehabilitation programs need to take into account the presence of frailty and/or sarcopenia and their appropriate management, to achieve optimal results.
