内容説明

Many conditions present differently and require different treatment in elderly people. In addition, both diagnosis and management may be complicated by the presence of other existing chronic conditions in the patient. This text brings together contributions from acknowledged experts in the field to ensure effective management of this group of patients. Management of the following condition is featured: heart failure; diabetic and endocrine emergencies; acute urinary tract infections; delirium; stroke and other neurological disorders; and the elderly patient in the ICU.
