Acute Illness Impacts Function In Elderly
Session Overview
Description
This session examines how acute illness in the elderly may disguise other medical problems and considers the implications of this for presentation and examination. The causes and consequences of immobility in the elderly are also considered.
Learning Objectives
By the end of this session you will be able to:
- Recognise that acute illness in the elderly may present non-specifically, and that history, examination and investigations may need to be broadened to encompass this
As the population ages and we are better able to treat many previously incurable conditions, the number of co-morbidities each person may have will increase.
