AbstractThe prehospital management of geriatric patients involves an understanding of the physiology of aging and necessitates the special acknowledgement of diagnosis and treatment of emergencies in the elderly. It is essential to keep in mind the prevention of an underestimation of the severity of disease and the necessity of an adequate therapy. The prehospital management of moribund patients gains special importance.
