Strategic objectives
- Improve knowledge of geriatric medicine (diseases and disabilities in older adults and care systems), with a focus primarily on risk reduction (patient safety) and the prevention or delay of physical and mental disability.
- Specifically include patients admitted to nursing homes and other complex patients in clinical research projects.
Research lines
- Appropriate medication prescription in older adults.
- Systematic review of non-pharmacological therapies for geriatric syndromes.
- Prognostic value of comprehensive geriatric assessment.
- Definition of sarcopenia and frailty. Value of nutritional and exercise intervention in preventing physical disability.
- Indications for nutritional intervention in geriatrics.
