Geriatric intensive-care unit
Geriatric intensive care unit is a special intensive care unit dedicated to management of critically ill elderly.
== Origin ==
Geriatric intensive care units began because the world population is aging. Geriatric medicine is distinct from adult or pediatric medicine, especially if they are critically ill. Geriatric medicine was not included in the curricula of undergraduate or advanced medical training until recently, so not all critical care physicians are oriented to the specific needs of geriatric patients. Despite the fact that many critically ill patients are older, the training of critical care teams still lacks a geriatric focus.〔(Geriatric intensive care (1993) article )〕〔(The Geriatric Patient in The Intensive Care Unit, Cuba )〕〔(RELATION BETWEEN ELDERLY AND INTENSIVE CARE UNIT, Turkey )〕〔(Neuroscience ICU )〕
Older adults admitted to intensive care units can suffer from severe infections, such as MRSA or systemic fungal infections,〔(Invasive mycosis in the Elderly – an appraisal on an geriatric intensive care unit )〕 and may need special post-operative analgesia.〔(postoperative analgesia for geriatric intensive care patients )〕 People age 75+ may need assessment by special instruments to predict their ICU prognosis. 〔(Geriatric Intensive Care Unit, Peking University, China )〕
