A multivariate negative binomial regression was used to identify baseline predictive factors predicting falls: age, endurance (6 minute walk test), number of medications, motor control (Fugl\u2010Meyer lower extremity score), depression (Patient Health Questionnaire\u20109), physical activity (number of steps per week), and cognition (Mini Mental Status Exam score). A second negative binomial regression analysis was used to identify baseline balance assessment scores predicting falls: gait velocity (comfortable 10 Meter Walk), Berg Balance Scale (BBS), Timed Up and Go (TUG), and Functional Reach Test (FRT). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) and area under the curve (AUC) were used to determine the cutoff scores for significant predictors of recurrent falls.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Main Outcome Measurement<\/jats:title><jats:p>The number of falls during the 42\u2010week follow\u2010up period.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Baseline measures that significantly predicted the number of falls included increased number of medications, higher depression scores, and decreased FRT. Cutoff scores for the number of medications were 8.5 with an AUC of 0.68. Depression scores differentiated recurrent fallers at a threshold of 2.5 scores with an AUC of 0.62.
