Drug Dosing: Geriatric Patients01:15

Drug Dosing: Geriatric Patients

Elderly individuals encompass a diverse population with varying degrees of age-related physiological changes. Defining the elderly presents challenges, as the geriatric population is often arbitrarily categorized as individuals older than 65. However, many individuals in this group lead active and healthy lives, with an increasing number surpassing 85 years and falling into the older elderly category. Physiological changes associated with aging impact performance capacity and homeostatic...

Drugs Used in Lower Respiratory Disorders: Overview01:17

Drugs Used in Lower Respiratory Disorders: Overview

Lower respiratory tract disorders present challenges that often require skilled and nuanced approaches for effective management. Common ailments, such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), have prompted the development of intricate treatment strategies involving bronchodilators and anti-inflammatory drugs, each tailored to ease breathing and revitalize the lungs.
Bronchodilators, the first step of respiration enhancement, come in various forms, each with its own mechanism...
Pharmacokinetics in Geriatric Patients: Effect of Age on Drug Distribution01:00

Pharmacokinetics in Geriatric Patients: Effect of Age on Drug Distribution

Drug distribution in the human body is influenced by several factors, including plasma protein concentration, body composition, blood flow, tissue-protein concentration, and tissue fluid pH. Among these, changes in plasma protein concentration and body composition due to aging significantly affect how drugs are distributed within the body. Specifically, aging is associated with a decrease in albumin levels by about 10% and an increase in α1-acid glycoprotein levels. These alterations are not...
Asthma III: Clinical Manifestations01:13

Asthma III: Clinical Manifestations

Asthma presents with a characteristic pattern of episodic respiratory symptoms that reflect underlying airway inflammation, bronchoconstriction, and mucus hypersecretion. Although severity varies among individuals, certain clinical manifestations are considered hallmarks of the disorder and often guide diagnosis and assessment.Respiratory SymptomsA persistent cough is one of the most common early features of asthma. It is frequently dry and tends to worsen at night or in the early morning,...

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Allergic rhinitis (AR) in older adults is complex, often co-occurring with non-allergic rhinitis (NAR) and presenting unique diagnostic challenges. Safe and effective management focuses on intranasal corticosteroids and second-generation antihistamines, avoiding older medications.

Area of Science:

  • Otolaryngology
  • Geriatrics
  • Allergology

Background:

  • Rhinitis in the elderly presents unique clinical challenges due to multimorbidity, frailty, and polypharmacy.
  • Allergic rhinitis (AR) in older adults is frequently intertwined with non-allergic rhinitis (NAR).
  • Symptoms like nasal dryness and congestion without clear triggers can lead to underrecognition.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To highlight the complexities of diagnosing and managing rhinitis in the elderly population.
  • To emphasize the need for person-centered treatment strategies.
  • To review current therapeutic options and safety considerations for elderly patients with AR.

Main Methods:

  • Review of existing literature on rhinitis in the elderly.
  • Analysis of age-related changes affecting nasal function and symptom presentation.
  • Evaluation of current treatment guidelines and pharmacological safety profiles.

Main Results:

  • AR in the elderly often presents atypically, complicating diagnosis.
  • Age-related nasal changes can influence symptom perception and presentation.
  • First-generation antihistamines should be avoided due to safety concerns.

Conclusions:

  • Management of AR in the elderly requires careful consideration of comorbidities and polypharmacy.
  • First-line treatments include intranasal corticosteroids (INCS) and second-generation oral antihistamines.
  • Digital health and artificial intelligence show promise for future AR management in this demographic.
