Stellungnahme
Stellungnahme der AG pneumologische Altersmedizin zu COVID-19 bei geriatrischen Patienten
Recommendations for the Treatment of Elderly Patients with COVID-19 from the Taskforce for Gerontopneumology
Die epidemiologischen Daten zeigen weltweit, dass von schweren Verläufen und Todesfällen mehrheitlich alte Patienten betroffen sind und die Case Fatality Rate ab einem Alter von 65 Jahren deutlich ansteigt [1]. Die Sterblichkeit bei Patienten über 80 Jahre liegt bei über 15 % [2]. Dies macht COVID-19 zu einer gerontopneumologischen Erkrankung. Die AG pneumologische Altersmedizin gibt im Folgenden daher eine Stellungnahme zur Therapie geriatrischer Patienten mit COVID-19. Diese ist als Ergänzung zu Empfehlungen anderer Arbeitsgruppen zu verstehen.
