Physical Function, Self-Perceived Physical Fitness, Falls, Quality of Life and Degree of Disability According to Fear and Risk of Falling in Women with Fibromyalgia
Abstract
:1. Introduction
- (1)
- Women with FM with fear of falling have worse physical test performance, a higher number of previous falls, worse perceived physical condition, worse health-related quality of life, worse self-perceived health, and a greater degree of disability due to the disease than women without fear of falling.
- (2)
- Women with FM at risk of falls have worse performance on physical tests, a higher number of previous falls, worse perceived physical condition, worse health-related quality of life, worse self-perceived health, and a greater degree of disability due to the disease than women without risk of falls.
- (3)
- There are correlations between physical function, perceived physical condition, previous falls, health-related quality of life, self-perceived health, and degree of disability due to the disease with fear of falling (assessed with the FES-I) and risk of falling (assessed with the ABC Scale).
