Geriatric Emergent/Urgent and Ambulatory Care PDF Free

Geriatric medicine in the ED has its own rules — this discussion-based, case-rich manual helps you think like the ED doc who knows older patients best. If you’re doing rotations or preparing for emergency medicine viva, download the free PDF at MedicalStudyZone.org and get confident with older patients fast.

Key features:

• Deep, practical focus on emergency care for older adults — covers assessment, atypical presentations, meds, transitions and ethics.
• Case-driven chapters and “what-to-do-now” policy/environment tips (useful for clinical shifts).
• Includes practical GED (Geriatric ED) modifications — environment, workflows and checklists.
• Rather than generic EM algorithms, this book is built around geriatric-specific competencies (e.g., atypical disease presentations, polypharmacy pitfalls, transitions-of-care) and departmental design — it’s the ED clinician’s geriatric playbook, not a general geriatrics textbook.

• Chapters: 27 (wide coverage from physiologic aging → trauma → end-of-life).
• Average chapter length: ~15–16 pages (417 ÷ 27 ≈ 15.4) — each topic is deep enough for practice, short enough to read between shifts.
• General assessment (p.1), Physiologic changes with aging (p.13), Pharmacological issues (p.43), Altered mental status (p.58), Acute chest pain (p.152), Stroke (p.203), Infections (p.218), The geriatric ED (p.407).
