21st Brazilian Congress of Geriatrics and Gerontology is organized by GAP Congress (GAP Congressos) and will be held during Jun 06 - 08, 2018 at Windsor Convention & Expo Center, Barra Da Tijuca, Rio De Janeiro, Brazil.
The care of the elderly individual, by definition, is integral and multidisciplinary. Professionals dedicated to Geriatrics and Gerontology have the unique opportunity to accompany this individual and his family for years, or even for decades. Care begins in the promotion of active aging, contemplates the cognitive or functional losses that can be installed and ends in the apotheosis of impeccable performance at the end of life. The art of caring requires that the preferences of the individual be known and respected - so that he reaches the maximum of his ability and lives, as fully and safely as possible, until the final moment. Participate in the Brazilian Congress of Geriatrics and Gerontologyand expand your network of professional contacts to promote increasingly broad and integrated care. Our field of activity is in full expansion and we hope that the congress represents an opportunity for discussion, with experts from Brazil and the world, on exciting and current topics.
Conference topics :
• Adequacy of prescription in elderly patients
• Cardiogeriatrics: arterial hypertension and arrhythmias
• Palliative care
• Delirium
• Dementias: diagnosis and treatment
• Depression
• Chronic Kidney Disease
• Urinary and fecal incontinence
• Insomnia
• Postural instability: interventions to reduce the risk of falls
• Parkinsonism: how to evaluate and treat
• Vertigo
Additional details will be posted as soon as they are available.
