摘要：
For elderly patients specific medical problems, such as the consequences of aging organs, comorbidities or geriatric syndromes must be considered in the intensive care treatment of acute diseases. Under these circumstances special instruments for geriatric assessment are particularly useful. Up to now geriatrics and intensive care medicine have made complementary contributions in the treatment of severely ill elderly patients. A closer interdisciplinary cooperation of the two disciplines could be of substantial beneficial value in the care of the sick and elderly to overcome the many open questions and pressing problems.
