摘要
随着社会老龄化的加剧,医院里高龄老年患者越来越多,危重症老年患者更是比比皆是。危重老年患者的救治要有积极的态度,但是治疗需要适度;老年肿瘤晚期患者的治疗、医疗技术的实施要有限度;老年患者的手术及有创操作更要个体化考虑,区别于其他患者群;老年患者合并焦虑、抑郁会严重影响医疗的结果,要给予充分重视及干预;老年终末期患者治疗终止的决策不全部由家属决定,患者应有一定决策权。总之,老年危重症患者的治疗是结合生理学、心理学、社会学的系统治疗。
With the aging of the society,there are more and more elderly patients in the hospitals,especially elderly critically ill patients.The attitude towards treatment of elderly critically ill patients should be positive,but the treatment needs to be appropriate.The treatment of elderly patients with advanced cancer and implementation of medical technologies should be reasonable.Operations and invasive techniques for elderly patients should be considered individually,which is different from that of other patient populations.Medical outcome can be seriously affected on elderly patients with anxiety and depression,so full attention and intervention should be given.The decision of terminating treatment for elderly patients should not always be decided solely by the family members,patients should be endowed with decision-making power.In short,the treatment of elderly critically ill patients is a systematic treatment combining physiology,psychology and sociology.
