O knihe
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in the elderly poses a geriatric problem because it worsens with age. The prognosis of exacerbations is more severe, co-morbidities are more frequent and treatment is more delicate. Therapeutic management must therefore take into account the cumulative risks associated with COPD and aging itself. The objectives of this study are to describe the clinical, functional, evolutionary and therapeutic characteristics of COPD in a population of patients aged = 65 years, and to carry out a geriatric evaluation in this population of 50 patients using validated evaluation tools: the Mini Nutritional Assessment (MNA), the Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS) and the Activities of Daily Living (ADL).
