Preventive Approach for the Management of the Main Geriatric Risks (Ger-e-Tec)

November 23, 2021 updated by: University Hospital, Strasbourg, France

Development of a Codified Preventive Approach for the Management of the Main Geriatric Risks

Nowadays, EHPAD residents are polypathological (cognitive and psycho-behavioral pathologies, undernutrition, IC, diabetes, COPD, IR, etc.) and multi-medicated. From a medical point of view, this implies the need for regular monitoring and a high level of medical or even multidisciplinary expertise for the healthcare team. The objective of the GER-e-TEC ™ project is to provide these complex patients with telemedicine tools allowing protocolized and personalized, non-intrusive monitoring. The GER-e-TEC ™ project more specifically takes into account the significant issues in nursing homes of aging residents with the main geriatric syndromes (fall, undernutrition, cognitive-behavioral disorders, iatropathogeny, etc.) The objective of the work undertaken is to develop a codified preventive approach for the management of the main geriatric risks, in order to avoid the occurrence of an acute decompensation factor in the elderly.
