The book offers an integrated approach to the main syndromes and clinical problems, incorporating new chapters on syncope, epilepsy, type 2 diabetes, and hypoxia, as well as a renewed focus on falls and gait disorders. With an orientation toward integrated care systems, the work emphasizes interdisciplinary coordination and continuity of care, providing practical tools such as updated algorithms and a self-assessment section with MIR-style questions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is it about?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe work develops the fundamentals of geriatric medicine from a clinical and practical perspective. It addresses in depth the most prevalent health problems in the elderly, with special attention to transient losses of consciousness (syncope, epilepsy, stroke, and anemia), the management of type 2 diabetes in this age group, and hypoxia. Independent chapters are dedicated to the analysis of falls and gait disorders, two of the main risk factors for dependence and morbidity. In addition, the text expands its focus toward integrated care models, highlighting the need for coordination between different levels of care and disciplines to ensure continuous and quality care.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eMain Topics\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eTransient losses of consciousness in the elderly: syncope, epilepsy, stroke, and anemia.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eManagement of type 2 diabetes in geriatric patients.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eHypoxia in the elderly: diagnosis and clinical approach.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eFalls and gait disorders as key geriatric syndromes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eIntegrated care systems, interdisciplinary coordination, and continuity of care.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eClinical problems in geriatric medicine with updated algorithms.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book is aimed at medical students seeking a solid foundation in geriatrics, health professionals interested in updating their knowledge of elderly care, and educators in the specialty who need structured materials for preparing classes based on clinical problems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat this book offers\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eUpdated content with new chapters on prevalent and emerging pathologies in geriatrics.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003ePractical approach through clinical algorithms and a self-assessment section with 70 MIR-style questions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eTools for interdisciplinary coordination and continuity of care in integrated care systems.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eAccess to the digital version with 6 complementary videos to reinforce visual learning.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eSpecific teaching material for instructors, with clinical problems ready to use in the classroom.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Sheet\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eAuthor: Abizanda\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003ePublisher: Elsevier\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eLanguage: Spanish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eSubject: Medicine, Geriatric Medicine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eCollection: Medicine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003ePublication date: May 2025\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eNumber of pages: 1264\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 1153 g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eEditorial Review\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis third edition of \u003cem\u003eGeriatric Medicine\u003c\/em\u003e consolidates the work as an updated and highly useful resource for those facing the clinical complexity of the elderly patient.
