Abstract
Caring for and anesthetizing critically ill geriatric patients requires multiple
special considerations. This chapter will explore the considerations that must be taken
when anesthetizing this geriatric critically ill population. In addition, it will also
describe in detail common critical care scenarios in the geriatric population such as
airway and ventilation management, resuscitation, and sepsis. Finally, some critical
care issues specifically related to the geriatric population such as frailty and end-of-life
considerations will be discussed.
