More than 80% of people in the United States who are older than 65 years have 1 or more chronic medical problems, and 50% have 2 or more. The cost of care for the elderly is at least 3 to 4 times that of younger populations and is rapidly growing, mostly because of a lack of preventive approaches and overly medicalized and fragmented care. This article summarizes the most up-to-date evidence for specific integrative modalities for common geriatric conditions, including falls, frailty, osteoporosis, and end-of-life palliative care.
美国超过 80%的 65 岁以上老年人患有 1 种或多种慢性疾病，其中 50%患有 2 种或更多疾病。老年人的护理费用至少是年轻人的 3 到 4 倍，而且还在迅速增长，这主要是由于缺乏预防措施以及过度医疗化和碎片化的护理。本文总结了最新的循证医学证据，介绍了针对常见老年病的具体综合治疗方法，包括跌倒、虚弱、骨质疏松症和临终姑息治疗。
