In the context of our evolving health care system and a rapidly aging population, clinicians are continually adapting their practice to meet the needs of their older patients. Current Diagnosis and Treatment: Geriatrics provides a framework for using the functional and cognitive status, prognosis, and social context of patients to guide diagnosis and treatment of medical conditions. In this edition, authors apply the principles of geriatric medicine, in different care settings to address common clinical scenarios and common geriatric conditions encountered by clinicians in the care of older adults.
