摘要： 老年人跌倒是一种常见的社会流行病，一般是由自身生理、病理、心理因素与存在危险因素的环境相互作用的后果，其中老年人的腿部肌力减退和平衡及步态异常为最重要原因。预防和治疗应该在全面评估的基础上采取以运动治疗为主要内容的综合性措施，其中太极拳运动从多个方面消除老年人跌倒的危险因素，值得临床借鉴。

Abstract: Fall is a common symptom in the elderly, which could be attributed to the interactions among the physiological, pathological,psychological factors of the older individuals and the environment with hazard factors. However, muscle weakness and balance and gait disorders have been identified as the most important etiology of falls. The intervention strategies should be developed individually and implemented based on the comprehensive assessment of the patient and the environment, to integrate exercise training as the main component for improving functional status. Tai Chi is a meaningful form of exercise which is effective in multi-perspective in preventing falls of the elderly.
