Abstract Pedestrian fall incidence resulting from slips or trips is one of the foremost causes of fatal and non-fatal injuries that take more loss of functionality. It occurs at any age group including healthy people . Fall injuries are also one of the major outcomes in surveys on serious occupational incidents as well as one of the most common geriatric syndromes threatening the independence of older people (Dias et al. in Revista Brasileira de Fisioterapia 15:406–413, 2011; Perez-Jara et al. in Maturitas 73:261–264, 2012; Demura et al. in International Journal of Gerontol 7:13–16, 2013; Whitney et al. in J Geriatr Phys Ther 36:3–12, 2013). More than one-third of adults 65 and older fall each year in the United States (Hornbrook et al. 1994; Hausdorff et al. 2001).
