Abstract

medical accidents by falling fracture, it is tend to increase every year. According to the previous year is due to falling fracture about 30% of medical accidents. Medical institution, falling fracture countermeasure is an important issue. We are elucidate behind falling that had to give a serious head injury by previous studies.
