Abstract

Numerous studies have shown that geriatric cooperation models in traumatology lead to significantly reduced morbidity and mortality rates. Even though national and international orthopedic and trauma societies recommend expanding these concepts to include nontrauma-related musculoskeletal diseases, unfortunately, to date only a few of these projects have been implemented. The present article deals with the necessary personnel and infrastructural implementation of aso-called orthogeriatric concept and puts the special features of this new type of treatment in direct comparison with known traumatological cotreatment concepts.
