Introduction to the Program
A complete study about the most outstanding advances in the attention and care of patients with pain from the techniques of physiotherapy work in the geriatric area"

One of the priorities of physiotherapists is to achieve pain management that allows sufferers to find the wellbeing they need. This applies to all types of patients, but especially geriatric patients who require greater delicacy in all interventions.
To this end, the professional must assess and explore the patient's resistance and physiological reserves in order to establish the appropriate framework for action and choose between home care, residential care, day care centers, social centers or private clinics.
Treatment should include pre-frailty, frailty, trauma and neurological disorders, respiratory and/or pelvic floor disorders, which may be associated with gerontological syndromes or cognitive impairment, side effects of drugs and/or biopsychosocial conditions that may complicate the clinical picture.
It is therefore essential to know the tools of physiotherapy and the appropriateness of their application in each case, such as active exercise, manual therapy and electrotherapy. Being able to work in an interdisciplinary team, with appropriate communication tools, understanding the concept of person-centered care, having the most up-to-date knowledge of support devices and even the support of current technology can be key to success in physical therapy treatment.
