Geriatric Orthopaedics

Geriatric Orthopaedics

Geriatric Orthopaedics is a specialized branch of orthopaedic medicine that focuses on the unique musculoskeletal issues affecting older adults, typically aged 65 and above. As individuals age, they are more prone to conditions such as osteoporosis, arthritis, and fractures due to diminished bone density and joint health. Common concerns addressed in geriatric orthopaedics include hip fractures, osteoarthritis, spinal stenosis, and fragility fractures. Treatment approaches often involve a combination of non-surgical interventions like physical therapy, medications, and assistive devices, as well as surgical options when necessary. Orthopaedic surgeons specializing in geriatrics consider the overall health and functional status of older patients, aiming to improve mobility, reduce pain, and enhance the quality of life. Multidisciplinary collaboration with geriatricians, physical therapists, and other healthcare professionals is essential to provide comprehensive and tailored care for the unique needs of elderly individuals with musculoskeletal issues.
