Abstract
As the elderly population continues to expand, more elderly patients will undergo surgical procedures. This patient population provides challenges for perioperative nurses, surgeons, and anesthesia care providers. By understanding normal age-related body system changes that may affect anesthesia, perioperative management team members can prevent complications and provide positive outcomes for elderly surgical patients.Entities:
