StayBalanced: implementation of evidence-based fall prevention balance training for older adults-cluster randomized controlled and hybrid type 3 trial.BACKGROUND
 The StayBalanced programme has shown positive effects on fall prevention, balance control and fear of falling.  The aim is to investigate the effectiveness of two different strategies to facilitate the implementation of an intervention, the StayBalanced balance training programme, in primary health care, including evaluation of relative changes and maintenance in patient outcomes between intervention arms over 24 months.  The StayBalanced programme will be launched through a website with information on the balance training and how to use it in clinical practice.  The other strategy simply includes access to the StayBalanced website.  Outcome measures in the project consist of implementation outcomes, such as acceptability, feasibility, fidelity and sustainability of the StayBalanced programme.

The StayBalanced programme will be launched through a website with information on the balance training and how to use it in clinical practice.  One implementation strategy will include close facilitation, i.e. support and close follow-ups initiated by the researchers, in addition to access to the website.  The other strategy simply includes access to the StayBalanced website.
