Glossary
- Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment (CGA)
- A multidimensional clinical process that assesses medical, functional, cognitive, psychological and social needs of older adults to build a coordinated care plan. At this congress, CGA is a core lens for hospital, primary care and nursing-home sessions.
- Frailty
- A state of increased vulnerability to stressors caused by age-related decline across multiple physiological systems. Frail patients are more likely to experience falls, hospital admission and loss of independence, making frailty a key topic for geriatrics teams.
- Sarcopenia
- Age-related loss of muscle mass, strength and function. It is linked to falls, disability and poor surgical outcomes, and is relevant to nutrition, exercise and rehabilitation exhibitors at the congress.
- Polypharmacy
- The use of multiple medicines at the same time, often defined as five or more regular drugs. In geriatrics it raises risks of interactions, adverse events and hospital admission, so medication review is a recurring congress theme.
- Deprescribing
- The planned and supervised withdrawal of medicines that are no longer benefiting a patient or are causing harm. It is closely tied to polypharmacy, falls prevention and end-of-life care in older adults.
- Delirium
- An acute disturbance in attention and awareness, often triggered by infection, surgery, medicines or hospitalisation. It is a common geriatric emergency and a frequent topic in nursing and hospital-care sessions.
- Dementia
- A progressive syndrome of cognitive decline that affects memory, reasoning and daily function. Congress content typically covers diagnosis, behavioural symptoms, caregiver support and care planning.
- Advance care planning
- A process of discussing and documenting a person's preferences for future care, including treatment limits and decision-makers. It is relevant to palliative care, dementia and chronic complex care discussions.
- Gerontechnology
- Technology designed for older adults, such as remote monitoring, fall sensors, assistive apps and smart-home safety devices. Exhibitors in this space need to show clinical usefulness and usability for older patients and caregivers.
- Telecare
- Remote support and monitoring services that help older people live safely at home, often including alarm systems, vital-sign monitoring and response centres. It connects clinical care with social and home-care services.
- Activities of daily living (ADL)
- Everyday tasks such as bathing, dressing, eating, transferring and toileting. Loss of ADL function is a central outcome measure in geriatric assessment and rehabilitation.
- Caregiver burden
- The physical, emotional and financial strain experienced by family or informal carers. It is a key consideration in dementia, dependency and home-care planning.
- Multimorbidity
- The presence of two or more chronic conditions in the same person. In older adults it complicates treatment guidelines and requires coordinated primary, hospital and social care.
- Palliative care
- Care focused on relieving symptoms and improving quality of life for people with serious illness, alongside curative or life-prolonging treatment. Geriatric palliative care often addresses pain, nutrition, delirium and family support.
- Successful ageing
- A framework for ageing with good physical, cognitive and social function, rather than simply the absence of disease. It supports prevention, exercise, nutrition and community-care debates at gerontology meetings.
