Geriatrics present medical care for the elderly, an age group that is not easy to define precisely. While aging biology refers to the inevitable, irreversible decline in organ function that occurs over time even in the absence of injury, illness, environmental risks, or poor lifestyle choices. For instance, prescribing medications for a patient with multiple health problems is more complex. A drug that might be useful in treating one health problem can make another problem worse, and be taking multiple medications can cause problematic drug interactions and side effects.
Chronic diseases have a serious impact on the health of an elderly people. There are so many chronic conditions that seem to afflict older persons of their mistaken perception example; glaucoma, lung disease, osteoporosis, macular degeneration, cardiovascular disease.

Geriatric medicine especially centers its focus on health care of elderly people. Its objective is to promote health by preventing and treating diseases and disabilities in older adults. It offers a more holistic approach to patient care than organ-based internal-medicine specialties. At this time, researchers finalized that, geriatric medicine is apart from a standard adult medicine which deals with elderly people disorders, diseases, and medication, and also specialized in the health care of old, preventing and treating them in the right way. So, this conference can help to team up with the approaches of geriatricians, nurse, nutritionist, physician assistant, geriatric psychiatrists to explore ideas which will be useful in continuing further research.
Up to 60% -70% of cancer mortality occurs in persons aged 65 years and above. The number of cancer patients over the age of 65 is projected to significantly increase over the next 20 years. Historically, clinical trial enrollment of older adults has not reflected the more general population of older patients with cancer due primarily to: one the low overall numbers of older patients enrolled and another is overly strict inclusion criteria leading to the enrollment of primarily healthy, “fit” older adults. It is very difficult to extrapolate clinical trial data to inform treatment decisions of older patients with cancer who are more vulnerable to adverse outcomes due to underlying health issues.

Some studies have suggested that treatment of endocrine diseases varies markedly in the elderly. Doses of growth hormone, thyroxine and insulin are relatively lower in aged 60-65 and above aged people. However, psychosocial factors unique to the elderly people which play an important role in the management of endocrine and metabolic disorders, such as osteoporosis, blood pressure, and diabetes etc. and should be taken into consideration in the search for optimal care of such patients.
The objective of geriatric rehabilitation is to keep up utilitarian freedom in the elderly matured individuals who are imperative part of the general public. Henceforth, elderly individuals can thrive socially and financially work. With the expansion, matured patients frequently confront numerous physical and passionate changes that can influence the level of fundamental to geriatric restoration is correspondence particularly enhancing any tactile disability.

Geriatric care administration normally has earlier preparing in nursing, social work, gerontology or other wellbeing administration territories. They are relied upon to have broad learning about the costs, quality, and accessibility of administrations in their groups. In a few nations and purviews, they may get affirmation from different expert affiliations, for example, the National Association of Professional Geriatric Care Managers in the United States.
Geriatric Nursing is a thorough hotspot for clinical data and administration exhortation identifying with the care of more established grown-ups. The diary's companion assessed articles report the most recent advancements in the administration of intense and incessant issue and give down to earth counsel on the care of more seasoned grown-ups over the long haul continuum.

Rejuvenation is a medical discipline focused on the practical reversal of the aging process. Rejuvenation is distinct from life extension. Life extension strategies often study the causes of aging and try to oppose those causes in order to slow aging. Rejuvenation is the reversal of aging and thus requires a different strategy, namely repair of the damage that is associated with aging or replacement of damaged tissue with new tissue. Rejuvenation can be a means of life extension, but most life extension strategies do not involve rejuvenation.

Overview
According to a report published in March 2016 by the United States Census Bureau, the geriatric population aged 65 years is expected to account for 12% of the global populations by 2030 and further to 16.7% by 2050 as compared to 8.5% in 2015. The report further states that the population in Asia and Latin America is aging rapidly. Therefore, demand for geriatric care services is projected to be high in Asian and Latin American country during the forecast period from 2016–2024.

Conclusion
In numerous nations, including a portion of the more crowded ones, the relative predominance of undernourishment will decrease essentially with this approach. Fewer nations than at present will have elevated amounts of undernourishment, none of them in the most crowded class. The issue of undernourishment will have a tendency to end up plainly lesser as far as both supreme numbers influenced and, considerably more, in relative terms, subsequently it will turn out to be more tractable through arrangement mediations, both national and international. Now that you have all the data you require on eating healthy, the most vital activity step you can do is to keep up this direction for living however much as could be expected. Post purposes when you require inspiration from others. Keep a journal of your sustenance decisions on your blog or diary. Converse with other individuals when you are feeling enticed to enjoy undesirable pastries.
