Why older adults are also much more sensitive


Problem: Remember, older adults are also much more sensitive to the non-selective beta-blockers that are used to treat/prevent esophageal varices. Bradycardia, orthostatic hypotension, falls, and fatigue are commonly seen in older adults prescribed non-selective beta-blockers for this condition. Higher sedation risks are also noted for older adults that need EGDs, TIPS, liver transplants, or EVL (Kaplan et al., 2023) What might the options be for management of Portal Hypertension and Varices be in the older patients? Does anyone know how to best measure for portal pressures? Need Assignment Help?
