Abstract:

While the 2019 and 2023 updated versions of the American Geriatrics Society (AGS) Beers Criteria® share a common objective of improving medication safety for older people, the latter is expected to incorporate newer evidence, reflect evolving guidelines, and address emerging medication-related concerns. The advancements in the 2023 update aim to enhance the precision, applicability, and effectiveness of the AGS Beers Criteria®, ultimately supporting the optimal use of medications in the older adult population. Health care professionals and providers are encouraged to familiarize themselves wit

Abstract:

Geriatric patients are especially vulnerable to adverse drug reactions (ADRs) and inappropriate medication use due to age-related physiological changes and the presence of multiple comorbidities. These age-related changes have significant implications for the clinical management of older adults, as alterations in metabolism and variations in drug response often require adjustments in medication dosages. To mitigate these risks, healthcare professionals rely on various guidelines and criteria, among which the Beers Criteria is widely recognised. <strong>Objective- </strong> This study was

In 2012, the American Geriatrics Society (AGS), along with a panel of 11 experts, updated the Beers Criteria which has evolved significantly since its inception in 1991. The Beers Criteria, in general, classifies medications/medication classes as: (1) potentially inappropriate for use in all older adults, (2) potentially inappropriate for older adults with certain diseases or symptoms and (3) requiring extra caution when used in older adults. Although each patient must be evaluated individually, the Beers Criteria is a useful clinical tool that can be used when initiating pharmacologic agents

Abstract:

Potentially inappropriate medications (PIM) are drugs that can cause significant unnecessary harm to patients. Prescribing PIM can cause significant healthcare problems, especially if there is a safer, similar, or even more effective alternative for the treatment. They are the cause of significant health issues that lead to increased treatment costs and reduced life quality. The main problem when it comes to treating geriatric population is a lack of specific guidelines for the treatment. This is mainly because clinical trials which are the main pillars of clinical guidelines are usually aimed

Abstract:

The American Geriatrics Society’s (AGS) 2023 Beers Criteria identifies potentially inappropriate medications (PIMs) to use in geriatric patients defined as greater than or equal to 65 years of age. This population experiences pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic changes, which raise the risk of potentially harmful side effects. The Beers Criteria were developed as a clinical tool to help healthcare providers improve medication safety in this vulnerable population. The main focus of this article is on commonly seen medications and the rationale for recommended avoidance in geriatric patients. Ad

Abstract:

ABSTRACTIn 2012, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) released STEADI (Stopping Elderly Accidents, Deaths and Injuries) toolkit which is based on the 2011 American Geriatrics Society/British Geriatrics Society (AGS/BGS) fall prevention guideline. In 2024, the National Network of Public Health Institutes (NNPHI), via a Cooperative Award with the CDC of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), invited AGS to recommend updates to STEADI with a focus on falls prevention in primary care. An AGS workgroup reviewed the 2022/2024 publications and held three outreach events wi

Abstract:

INTRODUCTION. Pharmacotherapy in elderly and senile patients is associated with multimorbidity and polypharmacy and can lead to adverse drug reactions (ADRs). The growth of the world’s population over 60 makes the practical application of the Beers Criteria for Potentially Inappropriate Medication Use in Older Adults, the key recommendations to optimise prescribing in the geriatric population, increasingly important.AIM. This study aimed to review the history of the Beers criteria, the main changes in the updated 2023 version, and national and international publications on the practical experi

ABSTRACTBackgroundThe American Geriatrics Society (AGS) Board Review Course aims to enhance geriatric knowledge and increase the number of board‐certified geriatricians. This study evaluated the feasibility of offering the course both virtually and in‐person at a national conference and assessed whether participation improved confidence and supported board certification.MethodsBetween May 2021 and May 2022, 233 participants (196 virtual, 37 in‐person) completed precourse and postcourse surveys.

AbstractThis paper is an official position statement of the American Geriatrics Society (AGS) and updates the 2017 AGS position statement, Making Medical Treatment Decisions for Unbefriended Older Adults. In this updated position statement, the term “unbefriended” is replaced by “unrepresented” as a term that is more value‐neutral, more accurately describes the circumstance in which a person without medical decision‐making capacity does not have recognized surrogate representation, and better aligns with increasingly preferred terminology as reflected in recent medical literature.

Abstract:

AbstractFalls are a major cause of preventable death, injury, and reduced independence in adults aged 65 years and older. The American Geriatrics Society and British Geriatrics Society (AGS/BGS) published a guideline in 2001, revised in 2011, addressing common risk factors for falls and providing recommendations to reduce fall risk in community‐dwelling older adults. In 2022, the World Falls Guidelines (WFG) Task Force created updated, globally‐oriented fall prevention risk stratification, assessment, management, and interventions for older adults. Our objective was to briefly summarize the ne
