Description

For all sample adults who have felt as if they are going to pass out or faint, AND have fallen during the past 5 years, FELARPASSO indicates if any of the falls occurred just before or around the time person felt like they were about to pass out. A fall was defined as, "unexpectedly dropping to the floor or ground from a standing, walking or bending position."

The question for this variable occurred as part of the Sample Adult Balance Supplement, sponsored by the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders.
