The proportion of the population of octogenarians and elderly patients presenting for intensive care is rapidly increasing thus exacerbating the need to modify our critical care management to cater for this patient group. This book will provide practical guidance on all issues related to the critical care of elderly patients, incorporating physiological and epidemiological information, clinical guidance, ethical and end-of-life issues and advice about optimal use of drugs and new technologies. Complications of polypharmacy, high-risk surgery and increased recovery times are also discussed. Chapters are concise, each including a list of key points and summary of available data, making this a quick reference for experienced consultants, as well as a useful resource for trainees preparing for exams.

This is no longer a Western or a developed world problem, but a global problem. Elderly patients, especially those who are more than 50 years old, are one of the fastest growing segments of the population. Population demographics are changing, and the proportion of elderly patients who are being treated for critical illness continues to increase rapidly. Increasing numbers of elderly patients are undergoing surgical procedures that decades ago would have been considered prohibitively high risk and would not be offered to elderly patients. Thus many elderly patients require intensive monitoring and postoperative care in critical care units. Geriatric patients develop significant physiologic changes with aging, including an increased incidence of frailty and diminished physiologic reserve. Complicating the care of geriatric patients are concurrent multiple comorbidities and. N° de réf. du vendeur Batch-FM634-LN-13186
