This book focuses specifically on the management of cardiovascular disease in elderly patients with particular frailties and in the “oldest old”. It is clearly explained how treatment in these patients differs from that in patients in their seventies who respond well to therapies and do not present frailties or organ failures.

Recensioner i media

“This is a good collection of evidence‐based practices in geriatric cardiology that provides guidance for appropriate decision making in the treatment of cardiovascular comorbidities in frail elderly geriatric patients based on the experience of professional geriatricians and cardiologists. … The audience is internists treating patients with common cardiovascular conditions, but it also would be useful for recent cardiology graduates.” (Ravi Prasad Avati Nanjundappa, Doody's Book Reviews, July, 2017)
