Risk Prediction Tool for Locomotor Disability

The BWHHS developed a prediction model and a risk score that can be used in

clinical practice.

The risk of incident disability at 3 and 7 years can be predicted in elderly women.

This prediction could help to efficiently target preventative measure and effective treatments for high risk groups.

The full reference for the published paper can be found in Publications> 2015> number 5

The model is available as an online calculator that predicts risks of locomotor disability available through clicking on the button below.
