En esta obra, profesionales de distintas disciplinas aportan sus conceptos, intervenciones y programas conducentes a detectar y prevenir los factores de riesgo de fragilidad, con centro en el armado personal del propio envejecer. " Es preciso hablar de la fragilidad desde la prevención si queremos envejecer de una manera activa, digna y saludable. Los textos de este libro se despegan del modelo biomédico clásico e invitan a recorrer un camino consciente para mitigar el impacto de la fragilidad en las personas, las familias y las comunidades, y expandir los horizontes de la mera funcionalidad. De manera magistral, se abordan conceptos que se convertirán fácilmente en líneas de acción e investigación para la sociedad actual y para las dinámicas de la llamada nueva longevidad. Espero que disfruten del libro como yo lo hice, que lo compartan y lo distribuyan en diferentes programas universitarios, entidades públicas, privadas y en la comunidad en general" (Del Prólogo del doctor Robinson Cuadros Cuadros).

This book is the first of a new series which will present the proceedings of the newly established Nestlé Nutrition Workshop Series: Clinical & Performance Programme aimed at adult nutrition. Undernutrition is a common phenomenon in elderly people, and malnutrition reaches significant levels in those being in hospital, nursing homes or home care programs. Consequences of malnutrition often go unrecognised owing to the lack of specific validated instruments to assess nutritional status in frail elderly persons. The Mini Nutritional Assessment (MNA) provides a single, rapid assessment of nutritional status in the elderly of different degrees of independence, allowing the prevalence of protein-energy malnutrition to be determined and to evaluate the efficacy of nutritional intervention and strategies. Easy, quick and economical to perform, it enables staff to check the nutritional status of elderly people when they enter hospitals or institutions and to monitor changes occurring during their stay. Moreover, the MNA is predictive of the cost of care and length of stay in hospital. This publication will be of immense assistance to heads of geriatric teaching units, teachers in nutrition, clinicians general practitioners and dieticians, enabling them to better detect, recognise and start treatment of malnutrition in the elderly.

Frailty is considered a multisystem impairment that makes an individual vulnerable to external or internal stressors. Sarcopenia, the age-dependent loss of muscle mass and function, is proposed as the biological substrate and the pathway whereby the consequences of physical frailty develop. These syndromes are associated with a negative impact in quality of life and can lead to the occurrence of disability, institutionalization, and even mortality. The book focuses upon all the related aspects of frailty and sarcopenia and the new advancements in the related treatments including complex issues and research. It includes high-quality chapters in all related aspects for the syndromes of sarcopenia and frailty, which adversely affect the function and overall effectiveness of the musculoskeletal system and interventions to promote rehabilitation.

From the Black Death of the fourteenth century to more recent Ebola and SARS and the ongoing HIV/AIDS crisis, pandemics and disease outbreaks have devastated societies, wiped out significant portions of populations, and necessitated political, social, and scientific changes to address these public health catastrophes. When the COVID-19 virus effectively brought the world to its knees in 2020, it became clear that whatever scientists and policymakers had learned from historical pandemics wasn’t enough. Journalists, politicians, medical professionals, and other experts from a range of fields weigh in on how pandemics happen and evaluate the potential means of controlling them.

El envejecimiento de la población occidental es un hecho y los sistemas sanitarios tienen ante sí el reto de compaginar el aumento en la esperanza de vida con dotar de calidad estos años ganados. Políticas para abordar la cronicidad ydependencia son ya una prioridad en la gestión de hospitales y departamentosde salud. Sin embargo, la fractura por fragilidad, siendo una de las principales causas de mortalidad, morbilidad y dependencia, es una entidad que pasa desapercibida para la opinión pública y autoridades sanitarias. El fracaso de laestructura esquelética como soporte mecánico asociada al envejecimiento conduce a las personas a una espiral de fracturas concatenadas y sucesivas que, en no pocas ocasiones, acaba con su fallecimiento. El envejecimiento es inherenteal ser humano y no se puede combatir pero sí que se pueden minimizar sus consecuencias. La fractura de cadera y la fractura vertebral son algunas de las entidades patológicas que mayor impacto económico tienen en los hospitales pero,todavía mas importante, en la vida de las personas y sus cuidadores. Es obligación de los profesionales que se enfrentan en el día a día a las fracturas porfragilidad poner el foco de la sociedad en este perfil de enfermos. La fractura por fragilidad pone en situación de riesgo a todas las personas y requierenuevas estrategias médicas, quirúrgicas y asistenciales para poder resolverlascon eficiencia y establecer políticas de medicina preventiva. El Hospital Universitario Infanta Leonor fue el primer centro español en recibir la acreditación global calificación "plata" y el segundo en recibir la acreditación "oro"en fractura de cadera por la International Osteoporosis Foundation. Desde entonces son muchos los profesionales, de todas las disciplinas médicas (traumatólogos, geriatras, rehabilitadores, internistas, fisioterapeutas, asistentes sociales) que han visitado el hospital para compartir conocimiento y trasladar asus centros esta forma de trabajar. Este libro recoge la experiencia multidisciplinar acumulada en diez años por los profesionales del Hospital Universitario Infanta Leonor y del Hospital Virgen de la Torre. Es un libro con un claroenfoque práctico, hecho por médicos para médicos, que recoge la noción y experiencia adquirida en todos estos años. El lector encontrará trucos y perlas quirúrgicas específicas de las fracturas por fragilidad más prevalentes, así como recomendaciones a la hora de enfocar la valoración y tratamiento de estos pacientes. Solo desde un enfoque global y holístico de la patología por fragilidad se pueden establecer líneas de trabajo sostenibles y eficaces
