N2 - Aim: Our objective was to study the predictive value of the Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) in the cohort of the SCOPE project on falls, injurious falls, and possible difference of prediction between indoors and outdoors falls. Findings: No association of SPPB and falls was found in models adjusted for age, sex, marital status, number of medications, quality of life, handgrip strength, and muscle mass. While SPPB fails to differentiate between injurious and non-injurious falls (p = 0.48), a lower SPPB score was associated with falls at home (p < 0.01) after 24 months. Message: SBPP was not able to significantly predict the risk of falling as well as experiencing an injurious fall.
