The FES consists of 16 items that assess the level of concern about performing daily activities without falling. The total score ranges from 16 to 64, with higher scores indicating greater fear of falling.;Timed Up & Go TestTimepoint: The TUG test is a reliable test that measures mobility. The performance of the TUG is rated on a scale from 1 to 5. A faster time indicates a better functional performance. Scores of ten seconds or less indicate normal mobility, 11–20 seconds are within normal limits for frail elderly & disabled patients, and greater than 20 seconds means the person needs assistance outside and indicates further examination and intervention | — |
