The comprehensive geriatric assessment in emergency and intensive unit settings
This review discusses the challenges that hospitals face when caring for older patients in emergency departments and intensive care units. Beyond chronic diseases, the older person is often affected by acute events, which require, in addition to the typical knowledge of emergency medicine and anesthesia, the holistic and targeted approach of the comprehensive geriatric assessment in the emergency room and intensive care setting. With Italy’s health centers struggling to manage the increasing pressure of patients, the COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the need for a geriatric approach to address this challenge. This review outlines the Geriatric 5Ms Model of Care, which addresses five domains, and the Domain Management Model, which provides acute medical management.
