The Aging Foot: An Interdisciplinary Perspective


The Aging Foot: An Interdisciplinary Perspective

The Aging Foot: An Interdisciplinary Perspective resulted from a collaborative effort between the Ohio State University College of Medicine and Public Health, Ohio College of Podiatric Medicine, Ohio University College of Osteopathic Medicine, and Western Reserve Geriatric Education Center. The team of allopathic, osteopathic, and podiatric physician educators created a comprehensive graduate physician-training program to teach podiatry, family medicine, and internal medicine residents about foot care for older patients.

As the geriatric population increases, it is imperative that physicians possess the knowledge and skills needed for care of foot problems of older patients. The Aging Foot: An Interdisciplinary Perspective is designed to provide the necessary information to assist primary care physicians in diagnosing, treating, and managing foot diseases and disorders affecting older, as well as younger, adult patients.

In addition to the 15 chapters that address issues relevant to foot problems encountered in the primary care of patients, are several appendices that contain:

  • Residency training curriculum syllabi: Family Medicine, Internal Medicine, and Podiatry
  • Pretest and Post-test: Rotation(s) and study materials
    Worksheets for critical assessments of research articles
  • Doctor-Patient communication needs assessment
  • Wound care products and uses

Also included are two informative CDs:

  • Podogeriatric Procedural Video Library
  • The Interactive Guide to Physical Examination
