在从急症医院到社区透析中心的所有医疗机构中,透析提供者越来越多地面对年龄越来越大、身体越来越虚弱的患者。这些患者通常带来的不仅仅是肾衰竭,还有一系列复杂的慢性疾病、合并症、功能和认知障碍。应对这些挑战并协调这些高度复杂患者的护理大大增加了整个透析团队的工作量。本文回顾了老年综合评估在这些患者中的作用,并讨论了其每个要素如何与常规透析护理相互作用。
Dialysis providers are increasingly being presented with progressively older and frailer patients, in all healthcare settings from the acute hospital to the community dialysis center. These patients commonly bring more than kidney failure with them, with a complex constellation of chronic illness, comorbidity, and functional and cognitive impairment. Navigating these challenges and coordinating the care of these highly complex patients significantly increase the work of the whole dialysis team. This article reviews the role of Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment in these patients and discusses how each of its elements interacts with routine dialysis care.
