dc.description | The present review work was carried out with the purpose of making available basic and elementary aspects of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in the geriatric patient. Being one of the pulmonary pathological processes due to airflow limitation associated with an abnormal inflammatory response to noxious particles or gases, it does not differ much from other age groups. The importance for the family doctor will be to keep the disease stable and provide a better quality of life, taking into account during the follow-up in these patients the appearance of symptoms that show advanced stages of the disease and the impact of the disease on daily life. Above all, the degree of family and social support available to the patient should be investigated. Therefore, the management of stable COPD is aimed at the prevention of the disease, relief of symptoms, prevention and treatment of complications and exacerbations. It must always be remembered that advanced age is a factor associated with mortality and the appearance of complications, which forces us to be aware of a possible hospitalization of the control patient. | es_ES |

dc.description.abstract | El presente trabajo de revisión se realizó con el propósito de poner a disposición aspectos básicos y elementales de la enfermedad pulmonar obstructiva crónica (EPOC) en el paciente geriátrico. Siendo esta uno de los procesos patológicos pulmonares por limitación de flujo aéreo asociado a una respuesta inflamatoria anormal a partículas o gases nocivos, no difiere mucho de otros grupos etáreos. La importancia para el médico de familia será mantener la estabilidad de la enfermedad para mejorar la calidad de vida del paciente, tomando en cuenta durante el seguimiento la aparición de síntomas que muestren estadios avanzados de la enfermedad y el impacto en la vida cotidiana. Sobre todo, se debe indagar el grado de soporte familiar y social de que dispone el paciente. Por lo tanto, el manejo de la estabilidad de la EPOC está destinado a la prevención de la enfermedad, alivio de síntomas, prevención y tratamiento de las complicaciones y reagudizaciones. Se debe recordar siempre que la edad avanzada es un factor asociado a mortalidad y aparición de complicaciones, lo cual nos obliga a estar pendientes a una posible hospitalización del paciente en control. | es_ES |
