Assessment of the aging man.
Knowledge of the aging process and the care of older patients has been increasing at a rapid pace. It is important to recognize and separate disease from the physiologic aging process. It is important to do appropriate comprehensive assessments in aging men, so that problems may be identified early and interventions instituted at the right time to delay physical decline, maintain independent living, and ultimately improve the quality of life of this part of the population.
