Video related to the research paper our Professor Michael M. McKee, MD, MPH and Dr. Teal Benevides, of @AUG_University had published in the most recent issue of @AnnFamMed about ED visits among people with or without IDD or cerebral palsy. annfammed.org/content/24/3/2…
Dr. Teal Benevides & Dr. Michael McKee (@deafmd1) explain their findings that adults with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities (IDD) or cerebral palsy (CP) were more likely to visit the emergency department for a fall-related injury than adults without these conditions, and that this risk appears at earlier ages than is seen in the general population on π„π©π’π¬π¨ππž πŸπŸ‘ 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐑𝐞 π€π§π§πšπ₯𝐬 𝐨𝐟 π…πšπ¦π’π₯𝐲 𝐌𝐞𝐝𝐒𝐜𝐒𝐧𝐞 𝐏𝐨𝐝𝐜𝐚𝐬𝐭 @AUG_University, @disability_UM, @umfamilymed , @AUG_SPH Link below to watch the full conversation on our YouTube channel

Our director Dr. Michael M. McKee @deafmd1 is featured in this video/podcast on new research showing adults with IDD or cerebral palsy facing higher fall risks, with ED visits for falls peaking at ages 34–45 vs. 62–65 for others. Early screening for fall risk is recommended.
