In dieser neuesten Ausgabe haben die Autoren die Inhalte aktualisiert und dabei die neuesten wissenschaftlichen Erkenntnisse konsequent auf die klinische Praxis übertragen, wobei sie vermehrt auf Beispielbilder, Algorithmen und Grundsätze der guten klinischen Praxis zurückgreifen. Die durchgängig aktualisierten Kapitel vermitteln eine wirklich umfassende Perspektive auf die Geriatrie und berücksichtigen auch die neuesten Veränderungen in Bezug auf Behandlungsmöglichkeiten und Gesundheitszustände.
Neben den neuen Kapiteln über verschiedene aktuelle Themen, den Grundsätzen der guten klinischen Praxis und den Beispielbildern (u. a. MRT-Scans) enthält das Buch außerdem:
_ Eine umfassende Einführung in die relevanten biologischen, sozialen und gemeinwohlbezogenen Perspektiven bei der Pflege älterer und alternder Patienten sowie in die Verschreibung von Medikamenten für ältere Patienten
_ Eine umfassende Untersuchung von Essstörungen, die häufig bei älteren Menschen auftreten, sowie Methoden zur Förderung einer gesunden Ernährung bei älteren Patienten
_ Eine praktische Erörterung hämatologischer und kardiovaskulärer Störungen und Krankheiten bei älteren Patienten
_ Eine eingehende Betrachtung besonderer Themen in der Altenpflege, darunter Missbrauch älterer Menschen, Alkoholabhängigkeit und Drogenmissbrauch, Schwierigkeiten beim Transport und Sterbebegleitung
Pathy's Principles and Practice of Geriatric Medicine eignet sich perfekt für alle Personen in Pflegeberufen, die mit älteren Patienten arbeiten, und darf auch in den Bibliotheken von Mitarbeitern der Gesundheitsdienste bei der Betreuung von älteren Patienten und Pflegebedürftigen nicht fehlen
