Abstract
- Older adults suffering from chronic pulmonary diseases, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and interstitial lung disease, and critical illnesses, such as sepsis and acute respiratory failure, are more vulnerable to adverse outcomes like disability and greater side effects from treatments. In this update, we discuss recent practice-changing clinical trials and observational studies in Pulmonary & Critical Care Medicine that have advanced our understanding of the diagnosis or management of older adults with chronic lung diseases or critical illnesses.
