Abstract
Background Accidental falls pose a high-risk that should not be overlooked in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), as they can result in significant injury or even fatality. This study aimed to investigate the characteristics of CKD patients with fall injuries during hospitalization, discuss potential mechanisms, and to provide an overview of existing prevention methods.
