The year 2025 marks a definitive inflection point in the history of neuroscience and #geriatric medicine. For decades, the field of #dementia care was characterized by a certain fatalism—a paradigm of "diagnose and manage" where the clinician’s role was largely to document decline and support the family.

CW: Old age and illness
Does anyone know if there's a group or hashtag for those of us dealing with #geriatric and terminally ill patients? I'm coming across so many issues and would really value a virtual community. I live with my parents so there's no let-up from it. As always @donty makes it bearable.

Instant block for anyone using #dementia or #geriatric to describe and boost memes about Trump. To be clear, the problem is not saying something nasty about Trump. Think for a second please about why most people are using those hashtags on here.

@Lupposofi A couple of years ago, I coauthored a paper trying to measure the applicability of the #aducanumab (#Aduhelm)'s results applied to the real world practice of a #geriatric outpatient clinic (with special focus on older persons with #cognitive impairment). Less than 1% of patients were potentially eligible. And this on the top of the unclear/arguable effects...

Is the Montreal #cognitive assessment culturally valid in a diverse #geriatric primary #care setting? Lessons from the Bronx
"...need for the creation and validation of accurate cognitive screeners for ethnoculturally and linguistically diverse older adults..."
PS Instruments are instruments. Do not accept their results within conceptualizing and adding clinical judgment.

Video from Uri Burstyn (aka Helpful Vancouver Vet) about some particular care items relevant to older cats. It's a bit lengthy but I find it interesting. as I have found most HVV videos. He used to post them frequently; I hadn't seen one from him in a long time and the start of this one touches on that. This one is from a few months ago.

❓ how to perform #geriatric assessment in patients with end stage renal disease?

After 73 years of marriage, this couple is forced to live apart. #LongTermCare (LTC) issues. This was happening long before the pandemic.
10 years ago my mom's #LTC roommate had a husband of 50+ years who was place into a facility across town. It was tough on the whole family.
It's worse for those who don't have kids or family who can advocate for them. They'll just never see each other again.
I bet a study would reveal this is, and has been, fairly common. It's devastating to the couples.
Placement of couples needs to be reformed.#elderly #geriatric

#dog #dogquestion my mom is in her 80's, lives independently in a condo with a porch, has lots of friends in the building and gets irregular, massive bouts of depression with a little bit of psychosis thrown in. She's decided that she wants a small dog for companionship and I support that with some caveats. I'd really like her to get a breed that might be inclined to alert on her mood changes. Does anyone have experience with this sort of thing?

@godpod Sure, but even if it's an "honest mistake", why does the USA keep putting #geriatrics in the most powerful and stressful job? Biden may be a well meaning #geriatric, while Lord Dampnut was evil, stupid and geriatric, but this is really a job for a younger person.

Relevant for older people: #kidney patients opting for #dialysis have an overall lower mortality risk compared with patients opting for conservative #care.
➡️ Likely #frailty plays major role, #geriatric assessment helpful!

About #geriatrics: older patients are very diverse, so as a doctor it is so important to look at more than age and comorbidity alone!
➡️ #geriatric assessment includes (at least) #cognition and #mood, #social network and support, physical functioning, #independence.
❗ You need the whole picture

@rvaughnmd Great article! Our societies need to be investing heavily in #geriatric screening and assessment, advsnce care planning and pre-habilitation.

@brucedouville Hi Bruce, #welcome to #Mastodon! Hashtags are where it's at here - since Mastodon doesn't include full-text search, they are the key thing that allows others to find your posts. #history and #historians use mainly #histodons. You might also try things like #geriatric. @histodons automatically retoots if tagged.
One other tip: you can follow hashtags in addition to accounts (just search for or click on one and use the follow button that appears next to it on the results screen).
