With the increase in life expectancy in the United States, octogenarians and nonagenarians are more frequently seen in clinical practice. The older adults patients have multiple preexisting comorbidities and are on multiple medications, which can make pain management complex. Moreover, the older adults population often suffers from chronic pain related to degenerative processes, making medical management challenging. In this review, the authors collated available evidence for best practices for pain management in the older adults.
随着美国人预期寿命的增加，八九十岁的老年人在临床实践中更为常见。这些老年患者通常患有多种并存疾病，并服用多种药物，这使得疼痛管理变得复杂。此外，老年人群常常患有与退行性过程相关的慢性疼痛，这使得医疗管理具有挑战性。在这篇综述中，作者整理了有关老年人疼痛管理最佳实践的现有证据。
