At baseline measurements, information regarding CVA date, the number of attacks, brain imaging results, brain lesion side, and previous fall histories were recorded. Visuospatial neglect, motor functions, and balance impairments were assessed. The Functional Ambulation Category was used to determine each participant’s patient’s ambulation level. Cognition was tested using the Mini-Mental State Examination(MMSE). All 66 participants were observed at home after being discharged from the rehabilitation hospital. After the 6 months, all caregivers were interviewed. After each fall the date, description, injury, hospital admission, use of assistive device were collected from caregivers via telephone.
