Synopsis

Textbook describes the principles and practices involved in proper care of orthopedic injuries in the elderly. The entire range of injuries is considered, including fractures and soft tissue injuries, from the most common "classic" injuries to the distinctly uncommon injuries that would be more frequently encountered in younger patients. The first section addresses the management of specific musculoskeletal injuries. The second focuses on the comprehensive care component for this patient population. The third part both describes the data collection system for hip fractures at the Hospital for Joint Diseases Orthopedic Institute, NYC, and discusses the current health care financing system.
