McGraw-Hill Medical. Current Geriatric Diagnosis and Treatment
addresses the medical problems that are most common, most serious,
or most troublesome to older adults. With the explosion in the
number of older adults, especially those age 85 years or older,
this information is especially important because most physicians
and nurses will spend most of their professional lives caring for
older adults. Thus, Current Geriatrics presents critical
information about cancers, coronary artery disease, and other
common diseases as well as the geriatric syndromes such as
dementia, delirium, and falls.
