Older adults with cancer are at risk of over-treatment or under-treatment, and treatment decision-making is difficult due to both the complexity of adverse aging and under-representation in clinical t...
Hyponatremia presents with symptoms considered age-associated in the elderly. We assess the change in Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment (CGA) parameters after hyponatremia improvement in hospitalized...
We took 100 hyponatremic and same number of eunatremic geriatric patients (> 60 years) who were comorbidity, presenting-complaints, and age-matched. Four CGA parameters were utilized, the new Hindi Me...
Average age was 68.1 ± 5.8 years, with males constituting 75%. The CGA parameters demonstrated worse values amongst the hyponatremia than the normonatremia group. Severe hyponatremia group showed wors...
Our study is the first utilizing HMSE to assess change in cognitive ability with improvement in serum sodium levels in the Indian elderly. Hyponatremic patients show worse baseline CGA parameters, and...
Digital health apps have a large potential for autonomous screening and monitoring of older people with respect to maintaining their independence. Due to demographic change and the shortage of special...
This narrative review enables the assessment of whether a digital geriatric self-assessment for older people ≥ 70 years is feasible using currently available apps....
A search was carried out for apps that enable a self-assessment in the following domains: physical capacity, cognition, emotion, nutrition, sensory perception and context factors. Based on predefined ...
Self-assessment apps could be identified in four of the six domains: physical capacity, cognition, emotion and sensory perception. In total five apps are presented as examples. No apps were identified...
The presented results indicate that digital self-assessment can currently be realized for certain domains of the comprehensive geriatric assessment. New promising apps are currently under development....
It is only by knowing the most common causes of falls in the hospital that appropriate and targeted fall prevention measures can be implemented. This study aimed to assess the frequency of falls in a ...
The aging population has led to an increase in emergency department (ED) visits by older adults who have complex medical conditions and high social needs. The purpose of this study was to assess if co...
This is a retrospective matched case-control study at a level 1 geriatric ED (GED) from January 1, 2018-March 31, 2020. Geriatric nurse specialists (GENIEs) provided comprehensive evaluations and mana...
GENIE consults were associated with a 13.0% reduction in absolute risk of admission through the ED at index (95% confidence interval [CI] -17.0%, -9.0%, p < 0.001) and a reduction in risk for total ad...
GENIE consults were associated with decreased inpatient admissions through the ED, modestly increased ED revisits, and decreased cost of inpatient and ED care. The results of this study can be useful ...
Geriatric assessment (GA) is recommended to detect vulnerabilities for elderly cancer patients. To assess whether results of GA actually influence the treatment recommendations, we conducted a case vi...
Seventy oncologists gave their medical treatment recommendations for a maximum of 4 out of 10 gastrointestinal cancer patients in three steps: (i) based on tumor findings alone to simulate the guideli...
Data on 164 treatment recommendations were analyzed. The recommendations had a significantly higher variance for elderly patients than for 'standard' patients (944 versus 602, P < 0.0001) indicating a...
The higher variance of treatment recommendations indicates that it is less likely for elderly patients to get the optimal recommendation. Although the proposed therapeutic regimen varied higher in eld...
Most cancers occur in older people and the burden in this age group is increasing. Over the past two decades the evidence on how best to treat this population has increased rapidly. However, implement...
Present an approach for surgical decision-making in cancer that incorporates geriatric assessment by building upon the common categories of tumor, technical, and patient factors to enable dual assessm...
Conventional preoperative assessment is insufficient for older adults missing important modifiable deficits, and inaccurately estimating treatment intolerance, complications, functional impairment and...
Geriatric assessment and management has substantial benefits over conventional preoperative assessment alone. This article highlights these advantages and outlines a feasible strategy to incorporate b...
