dc.description.abstractBACKGROUND: AGEING IS ASSOCIATED WITH SENSORY AND PHYSICAL DECLINES AND FALLING RISK. OBJECTIVE: TO DETERMINE THE ASSOCIATION BETWEEN 3 PERFORMANCE-BASED MOBILITY TESTS AND FALL HISTORY. METHODS: FIFTY PARTICIPANTS MOBILITY WAS ASSESSED BY TIMED UP AND GO (TUG) AND 4- AND 6-M WALKING TESTS (WT). RESULTS: THE TUG PERFORMANCE CORRELATED WITH 4- AND 6-M WT PERFORMANCE, AND PERFORMANCE ON 4-M WT POSITIVELY CORRELATED WITH 6-M WT. ONLY TUG PERFORMANCE SHOWED A STRONG RELATIONSHIP TO FALL HISTORY. CONCLUSIONS: PERFORMANCE TESTS COULD INDICATE THE PRESENCE OF FALL HISTORY IN THE INSTITUTIONALIZED OLDER ADULTS; THE TUG BEING THE MOST SUITABLE COMPARED WITH OTHER COMMON WT.
