Anahtar Kelimeler


Although there is an increased prevalence of some gastrointestinal disorders in older people, aging per se appears to have less of a direct impact on most gastrointestinal functions. As gastroenterologists, we often encounter elderly patients suffering from dysphagia, anorexia, dyspepsia, and colonic dysfunction. Therefore, understanding age-related changes in gastrointestinal physiology and the effects of common comorbid diseases will improve the ability to assess and treat these common, distressing symptoms. In geriatric patients, the main goal should be to choose the most appropriate treatment, taking into account the patient’s current performance and expected life expectancy.
