Based on the popular format of Ferri's CLINICAL ADVISOR, this text provides a comprehensive, quick reference for the examination and care of geriatric patients. Five separate sections - covering everything from diseases and disorders to prevention guidelines - focus on the special considerations presented by this growing segment of the patient population. Three appendices provide critical, at-your-fingertip information for evaluating and managing the geriatric patient. The book/website/PDA package is your clinical decision making tool. A formulary appendix - in both print and online - makes this a convenient and complete resource for geriatric point-of-care diagnosis and treatment. Includes online content that is fully searchable with links to relevant drug resources and journals. Provides essential and practical targeted information on addressing the unique needs of the older patient population. Offers five separate sections that cover Diseases and Disorders Differential Diagnosis Clinical Algorithms Laboratory Evaluation and Prevention Guidelines.
