Assessment of Geriatric Trauma: Special Considerations

Gudrun E. Mirick, Jennifer H. Wood
The incidence of geriatric trauma continues to rise as patients live longer and stay active for a longer length of time. The longer life span unfortunately brings with it an increased risk of injury, predominantly due to the elderly person being unable to correctly physiologically compensate for trauma. This decreased compensation is a result of multiple anatomic and physiological factors. Appropr...... hiện toàn bộ
