[Patients and their diseases in a geriatric hospital (author's transl)].
Report on patients and their problems of a hospital of chronic diseases. Geriatric departments, part of clinics of acute diseases should treat not only patients without real chance for rehabilitation or discharge. Most of the diseases of elder persons are such of the arterial system, especially of the cerebral and coronary vessels. Although patients suffered of partial or complete dementia and had to stay long in the hospital visitors came more often. Generally must be postulated, that all institutions for medical care or nursing of old people should cooperate better than today.
