Episode 325: Making Your Home Safe and Accessible with Tracy Carrasco
Manage episode 384867816 series 1605758
According to the CDC, 36 million falls are reported each year, resulting in 3 million adults being transported to the Emergency Room and 32,000 adults dying from their falls. Studies have shown that, in any six-month period, more than 50% of the people living with MS fall at least once, and 30% fall multiple times.
As falls at home are common, occupational therapist Tracy Carrasco joins me to share tips and strategies for making your home safe and accessible.
We're also sharing a research roundup featuring results from a few different clinical trials that are focused on the impact of diet on MS. And that includes the Swank diet, the Wahls diet, the Mediterranean diet, and a simple low-fat diet.
We'll tell you about a novel study that explored the economic impact of an Epstein-Barr Virus vaccine on the cost of MS care in Australia.
If you're living with MS, we have your invitation to participate in the Patient Reported Outcomes for Multiple Sclerosis (PROMS) initiative survey.
And we'll tell you how you can catch the video replay of the International Progressive MS Alliance global webcast on research and treatment for cognitive challenges in progressive MS.
We have a lot to talk about! Are you ready for RealTalk MS??!
