Accidents
A pattern of increased susceptibility to accidents, falls, or unintentional injuries, which may reflect underlying issues with attention, coordination, balance, vision, or proprioception.
Quick answer
Accident-proneness as a symptom (ICD-10: R26.9; ICD-11: MB48) may reflect attentional deficits (ADHD), vestibular dysfunction, peripheral neuropathy, medication effects, or neurological changes. Falls prevention programmes have strong evidence in older adults. Holistic approaches address balance, proprioception, and attention.
