. 2023 Jul;
91(2):183-193.
PMID: 37498939
Grab bars are used to support bathing tasks. Sometimes, temporary rim-mounted grab bars may be preferred over permanent wall-mounted grab bars. We compared postural requirements, applied loads, and user perceptions...

PMID: 36324476
Given the prevalence and severity of bathroom falls and injuries across age groups, there is growing interest in policy-level approaches to bathroom fall prevention. Grab bars reduce fall risk during...

. 2021 Dec;
65(8):1821-1829.
PMID: 34963373
Objective: This study evaluated the hazard (risk of unrecovered balance loss and hazardous fall) and strategies associated with grab bar use, compared to no grab bar use, during unexpected balance...

. 2021 Sep;
49(12):3267-3279.
PMID: 34494215
Fall simulations provide insight into skin-surface impact dynamics but have focused on vertical force magnitude. Loading direction and location (relative to the femur) likely influence stress generation. The current study...

PMID: 34418865
In-vivo fall simulations generally evaluate hip fracture risk through differences in impact force magnitude; however, the distribution of force over the hip likely modulates loading and subsequent injury risk of...

PMID: 34256320
Falls during stair descent are dangerous and costly. Contrasting tread edge highlighters improve measures of stair safety, however the necessary contrast level of these interventions has not been investigated. Thirteen...

PMID: 30201251
While metrics of pelvis and femur geometry have been demonstrated to influence hip fracture risk, attempts at linking geometry to underlying mechanisms have focused on fracture strength. We investigated the...
