| Abstract: | Metabolic bone dlseases are frequently seen in the geriatric population. The pain which often accompanies the disorder is a major cause of morbidity, frequent visits to the physician, health resource utilization, and even mortality. Successful prevention, detection and management of metabolic bone disease are essential components of optimal geriatric health care. This is the 4th paper presented in the symposium, Pathogenesis and Management of Pain in the Elderly, presented during the 16th Annual Meeting of AGE in Washington, D.C. on 9/25/86. |
