Perceived Ability to Manage Risk of a Falls or Actual Falls
upin humans1
Floor-rise training improves perceived Ability to Manage Risk of a Falls or Actual Falls in humans (13.6 to 16.3, P = .033).
“PAMF scores increased significantly in the FRT group (13.6 to 16.3, P = .033).”

Independent floor-rise ability
upin humans1
Floor-rise training improves independent floor-rise ability in humans (100% vs 63%, P = .007).
“Post-intervention, 100% of FRT participants could rise from supine versus 63% of controls (P = .007).”

Floor-rise training decreases floor-rise time in humans (13.1 s to 7.1 s, P = .001).
“FRT participants significantly reduced floor-rise times compared to controls: supine (13.1 s to 7.1 s, P = .001)”
