Abstract Objection To describe and study the risk factors of fall efficacy in patients with Parkinson's disease.
Methods One hundred and ninety-seven PD patients were recruited at out-patient neurology department of West
China Hospital from January 2016 to December 2016. Fall efficacy, general data, cognitive and emotional data were
collected. Fall Efficacy Scale (FES)was adopted to assess fall efficacy. UPDRS and H-Y score were used to assess the
severity of disease, Minimum Mental State Examination (MMSE) and Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) were
used to evaluate cognitive function, Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD) and Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA) were
used to estimate depression and anxiety respectively, modified Barthel Index (BI) was used to assess basic activities
of daily living. The function of balance was assessed by Berg Balance Scale (BBS), the risk of falling was evaluated
by the timed up & go test (TUG). Single factor analysis and multi factor analysis methods were both used to find
the risk factor of FES. Results Multiple linear regression showed having a history of falling OR=13.163,P=0.000,
the score of HAMA OR=1.025,P=0.000,BBS(OR=0.697,P=0.001),UPDRS (OR=0.392,P=0.002) were risk factors
of FES. Conclusion The main factors affected FES mostly are having a history of falling, anxiety, balance impairment
and the severity of disease. We should monitor their condition and give pertinent suggestions.
