Deaths from falls
Falls, and complications following from falls, are a significant subgroup of deaths from accidents, especially among the elderly. Due to variations in coding practice between countries, the most comparable way of looking at this is by including unspecified accidents. Experience shows that similar cases would be coded as falls in some countries, and unspecified accidents in other countries.
