Our Aging World -- Physiology of Aging -- Frailty in Older People -- Pharmacology -- The Problem of Delirium in the Elderly -- Dementia: Making a Diagnosis and Managing Behavioral and Psychological Symptoms -- Diagnosis and Management of Depressed Mood in the Older Person -- Falls: Prevention and Management -- The Problem of Incontinence in the Elderly -- Acute Care and Geriatric Assessment -- Geriatric Ambulatory Care of the Elderly -- Residential Care -- Rehabilitation for the Older Patient -- Stroke in Old Age -- Atrial Fibrillation in the Elderly: Special Problems -- Isolated Systolic Hypertension -- Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction in the Elderly: Challenges and Management -- Osteoarthritis and Osteoporosis -- Ethics and the Care of the Elderly -- Advanced Care Planning -- Palliative Care of the Older Person.

Written by international experts, this book presents chapters that cover common geriatric conditions including dementia, depression, delirium, falls, polypharmacy, incontinence, immobility, and medication-related issues, as well as neurological, cardiovascular, and endocrine diseases associated with old age. The book also discusses various aspects of ambulatory, residential, and palliative care for the elderly, in addition to ethical aspects of old age care, advance care planning and living wills. Geriatric medicine is a rapidly growing field in internal medicine. The majority of elderly people now live in developing countries, where there is an urgent need to up-skill healthcare professionals. By presenting problems as they arise and then discussing how to solve them, this book offers a valuable resource for all physicians interested in the care of older people.
