The increasing prevalence of frailty within the aging population poses challenges to current models of chronic disease management and end-of-life care delivery. As frailty progresses, individuals face an increasing frequency of acute health issues requiring medical attention. The ability of health care systems to recognize and respond to acute health issues in frail patients using a holistic understanding of health and prognosis will play a central role in ensuring their effective and appropriate care, including that at the end of their lives. This chapter reviews the history of palliative care and the elements of frailty that require the modification of current models of palliative care. In addition, tools and models for recognition of end of life in frailty and considerations for symptom management are introduced.
期刊介绍:
At a time when interest in the process of aging is driving more and more research, ''Interdisciplinary Topics in Gerontology and Geriatrics'' offers investigators a way to stay at the forefront of developments. This series represents a comprehensive and integrated approach to the problems of aging and presents pertinent data from studies in animal and human gerontology. In order to provide a forum for a unified concept of gerontology, both the biological foundations and the clinical and sociological consequences of aging in humans are presented. Individual volumes are characterized by an analytic overall view of the aging process, novel ideas, and original approaches to healthy aging as well as age-related functional decline.
