This new edition of the highly acclaimed Principles and Practice of Geriatric Medicine provides an account of the fundamental changes associated with ageing, which are essential to our understanding and management of the elderly sick population. With the addition of 27 new chapters and the increase and reorganization of a number of clinical chapters, numerous new and important areas of geriatric medicine are covered. New topics featured include: * Demography of ageing. * The older driver. * Smoking in old age. * Diagnostic imaging and interventional radiology. * Pharmacology and therapeutics. * Disorders of the stomach and duodenum. * Constipation. * Anaemias. * Hypertension. * Pulmonary rehabilitation. * Headache. * Clinical aspects of Alzheimer's Disease. * Osteoporosis. * Education in geriatric medicine. * Clinical audit and health care. * Ethical issues. The focus of this new edition is not simply on the management of disease but also the maintenance of health in the elderly. Greater coverage is given to topics such as health economics, medical audit, preventative medicine and delivery of care.
