Human development establishes the capacities acquired over the years on an emotional, physical and mental level; All these are useful in life and allow growth and harmonious relationship with the environment and society. This development also shows that the stage of adulthood is a process of loss of functionality, because they begin to trigger characteristics of age and decrease their ability to function in the world. For all the above it is intended to identify risk factors associated with the falls of adults, consequences that trigger and actions that can be implemented. Objective: Identify the risk factors that lead to falls or accidents in the elderly; and the health determinants that these trigger. Methodology: A bibliographic search of epidemiological studies was conducted in the databases SciencieDirect, Pubmed, Scopus, Redalyc and Google Scholar that included AM that have suffered falls. Results: 40 articles were condensed, where only 14 were included; which had as main theme the falls in the MA, the risk factors that lead to them and their consequences. Conclusion: A fall in the AM, can have serious consequences, and even cause the death to the individual. That is why this article aims to identify the risk factors that cause falls to the AM; in order to mitigate incidence rates and look for strategies to adapt the environment in which they operate |
