During the last decades, as the population grew older,
gerontologically adjusted services became the norm for the highest
standard of care. The Acute Care for Elderly Unit has been
specifically devised to provide trained acute hospital care for
elderly patients with geriatric syndromes, disabilities and
frailty. Hospitalists and geriatricians find only limited guidance
in the literature referring specifically to the management of acute
disorders in elderly persons, having multiple comorbidities,
geriatric syndromes, disabilities and frailty. For such conditions
we have attempted to update the most recent evidence and define the
frontiers of knowledge in the volumes Challenges in Acute Geriatric
Care' in 2009 and Acute Geriatric Care' published in 2012. Fifty
five case histories in this tome provide an insight into acute
geriatric care: the patients, the problems and the physicians'
skills concerned.
