What are geriatric diseases?
Geriatric diseases and syndromes are age-related health conditions that are typically chronic, associated with difficulties in everyday functioning. Geriatric refers to the medical care of older adults, often those ages 65 and over. Some conditions associated with aging, such as high blood pressure and immobility, may begin earlier and can worsen overtime. Therefore, early prevention and management are commonly recommended by geriatricians, including maintaining a balanced diet and engaging in regular physical acitivities.
Neurodegenerative diseases are conditions that gradually destroy the nervous system. This article focuses on Alzheimer's disease, one of the most common causes of dementia.
