  • Title: Major urologic problems in geriatrics: assessment and management.
    Author: Guzzo TJ, Drach GW.
    Journal: Med Clin North Am; 2011 Jan; 95(1):253-64. PubMed ID: 21095428.
    Abstract:
    Elderly urologic patients require the same cautions as used in development of treatment programs for them in other disciplines. Because of potential interference with poor renal function or crossover effects with central or peripheral nervous system, however, many urologic drugs must be titrated appropriately. In treating cancer, erectile dysfunction, incontinence or urinary infection, patient quality of life and life span become dominant factors in making therapeutic decisions, by behavioral change, medication, or surgical intervention.
