    Abstract:

    Fear of falling is quite common among stroke survivors, which can lead to avoidance behavior and then further increases fall risk, forming a vicious circle finally. Different from the inclusive interventions targeted to healthy older people, interventions for stroke survivors intend to improve certain functions and balance confidence. In this review, we summarized the characteristics and effectiveness of different interventions based on concerning foreign studies in recent years in order to help medical staff to optimize the measures and then break the vicious circle of fear of falling in stroke patients.
