@paulgp @arpitrage There have been some RCTs of earlier technology, focused on hip fractures. Modest results. https://t.co/5m1axrCjXn https://t.co/B7lm3O7Yjl

@psvbluemts So this is not research on the above, but on hip protectors alone. Evidence was so, so. https://t.co/7Ivbw9xdwz

Hip protectors reduced hip fracture risk in older adults living in residential care settings with a small effect (RR = 0.82), but no effect in community-dwelling older adults (RR = 1.15). No effect was found in reducing falls and other fracture. #geriPT ht
