Geriatric Anesthesia, An Issue of Anesthesiology Clinics : Volume 33-3 Hardback
by Charles Brown
Part of the The Clinics: Internal Medicine series
Hardback
Description
The volume of elderly patients requiring anesthesia and surgery is growing rapidly.
Thirty-five percent of surgeries are performed on patients older than 65 years, and in general, these patients have higher morbidity and mortality rates after anesthesia compared with their younger counterparts.
One of the major challenges of treating elderly patients is the heterogeneity of the geriatric population-and the need to individualize care for each patient to provide the best outcome.
