با ادامه رشد جمعیت جهانی سالمندان، نسبت فزاینده ای از افرادی که به بخش های اورژانس گزارش می دهند، سالمندان هستند. کار این بیماران نسبت به بیماران جوانتر از زمان و منابع بیشتری استفاده میکند و به دلیل این واقعیت که بیماری حاد اغلب به صورت ظریفتر و بدون تظاهرات بیرونی که معمولاً در بیماران جوانتر دیده میشود، پیچیدهتر است. این جلد بر پاتوفیزیولوژی منحصر به فرد سالمندان تمرکز دارد و دستورالعمل هایی برای احیا، ارزیابی و مدیریت ارائه می دهد. بخش اول اصول کلی شامل جمعیت شناسی، فارماکولوژی و مدیریت درد را مورد بحث قرار می دهد. بخشهای زیر شامل رئیس پرخطر ارائه شکایات و بررسی اورژانسهای سالمندان میشود. در نهایت، موضوعات مربوط به ویژه در جمعیت سالمندان مورد بحث قرار می گیرد، از جمله ارزیابی عملکرد، مراقبت از پایان زندگی، ملاحظات مالی و سوء استفاده. این کتاب یک چارچوب جامع و عملی برای پزشکان اورژانس دانشگاهی و جامعه و همچنین مدیران بخش اورژانس فراهم می کند که در تلاش برای بهبود ارائه مراقبت به این جمعیت آسیب پذیر و در حال رشد هستند. هر فصل شامل مرواریدها و تلههایی است که بررسی سریع اجزای اصلی فصل را ارائه میکند فصلهای اختصاصی درباره موضوعاتی بحث میکنند که در جمعیت سالمندان از اهمیت ویژهای برخوردار هستند، مانند زمین خوردن، سوء استفاده از سالمندان و ملاحظات پایان زندگی. دستورالعمل های عملی به خوانندگان کمک می کند تا نظریه را به شیوه ای مرتبط بالینی به کار گیرند
As the global geriatric population continues to grow, an increasing proportion of people reporting to emergency departments are elderly. The work-up of these patients uses more time and resources than that of younger patients, and is complicated by the fact that acute disease often presents more subtly, without the outward manifestations typically seen in younger patients. This volume focuses on the unique pathophysiology of the elderly, presenting guidelines for resuscitation, evaluation and management. The first section discusses general principles including demographics, pharmacology and pain management. The following sections cover high-risk chief presenting complaints and review geriatric emergencies. Finally, topics of particular relevance in the geriatric population are discussed, including functional assessment, end-of-life care, financial considerations and abuse. This book provides a comprehensive, practical framework for community and academic emergency medicine practitioners, as well as emergency department administrators striving to improve delivery of care to this vulnerable, growing population. Each chapter includes pearls and pitfalls, providing a rapid review of the key components of the chapter Dedicated chapters discuss topics that are of particular relevance in the geriatric population such as falls, elder abuse and end-of-life considerations Practical guidelines help readers to apply theory in a clinically relevant manner
