Care of the Injured Patient: A Geriatric Perspective
Kara Jones MSN, RN, FNP-‐BCJenna Kesey MSN, RN, FNP-‐BC, CWS
Disclosures
• None to add,
Objectives1) Identify differences in physiology for the aged
patient.2) Identify the significance of geriatric injuries to
morbidity and mortality.3) Pinpoint system based modifications in
management of the traumatically injured geriatric patient.
4) Understand management principles for caring for the thermally injured geriatric patient.
5) Utilize appropriate resources to maximize outcomes for the geriatric injured patient.

Why I Care about Geriatric Trauma
Geriatric Trauma:A Public Health Issue
• Geriatric population: aged >60 years.• Over 10% of total population.• Most rapidly growing segment of the US population.
(Administration on Aging, 2015)(Census Bureau, 2010)
9/7/15

The Issue Continues• 33% of trauma health care expenditures.• $30 billion per year in direct & indirect costs.• 4th leading cause of death in all age groups• 8th leading cause of death in those 65 years and older.

• Most common cause of injury: falls.• 2nd most common: motor vehicle collisions.• Pedestrian injuries, suicide, geriatric abuse.

Geriatric Trauma Through the Ages
• Public health issue dating back to the 80s. – 1984: 85% survival rate BUT 88% did not return to prior level of
function.– 1986: 70% survival rate; care should not differ from other age groups. – 1990: “We would contend that the multiply injured elderly patient
that has sustained trauma is different.

Falls in theGeriatric Population
• 40% of trauma admissions related to falls.• 10%-‐15% of all emergency department visits.• Leading cause of non fatal injuries.• >60% discharged somewhere other than home.

Objective 2: Identify the significance of geriatric injuries to morbidity and mortality.
• #1 Fall: Overall mortality = 6%.• Operative intervention = 30%.• Proximal femur fracture mortality = 20%-‐30%.

MVC Mortality
• #2 MVC: blunt force trauma rib fractures.• 3-‐4 rib fractures = 19% mortality
31% pneumonia• >6 rib fractures = 33% mortality
51% pneumonia• Chest wall pain limits pulmonary function.

Stassen, Lukan, Mizuguchi, Spain, Carrillo, & Polk, 2001
Objective 3: Pinpoint system based
modifications in management of the traumatically injured geriatric patient.• EAST guidelines: – avoid under triage – rapidly correct coagulopathy – admit to ICU if base deficit <-‐6mEq/L – SBP<90 associated with 82% mortality rate– GCS <8 x 72 hours warrants supportive care discussion.

Dabigatran
This medication, used to prevent
the formation of blood clots in patients with atr ial fibr illation, increases the chance of bleeding in
adults 75 years and older more than another drug, war far in, that is

Page 1 of 2- ICU Progressive Mobility Plan 05/07/2012 (#1076 R-1)
Perform each step of progressive mobility for at least 30 to 60 minutes three times a day. Repeat each step until patient demonstrates hemodynamic and physical tolerance then advance to next step at the next activity period.
Step 1: HOB elevated to 45 degrees
Step 2; HOB elevated to 45 degrees and legs in dependent position (partial chair mode)
Step 3: HOB elevated to 65 degrees and legs in full dependent position (full chair mode)
Reconsult Physical Therapy for evaluation and treatment when ready to progress to Step 4
Step 4: HOB elevated to 65 degrees plus legs in full dependent position and feet on the floor plus standing.
Step 5: Initiate stand/pivot and into chair

• SNF increases risk of death and poor long term physical function
• Education, education, education• Manage co-‐morbidities before discharge• Involve family members• Utilize community resources
