Objective: Ascent to high altitude may be associated with changes in heart rate and systolic blood pressure, resulting in greater cardiac work. In elderly individuals with coronary artery disease, these changes may lead to myocardial ischemia. We studied an elderly population to assess the incidence...

Hypothermia is a special concern for the elderly. Older adults can struggle to keep their body temperature in a normal range if they’re somewhere with intense air conditioning or there’s not enough heat. Other things can also make you more likely to get hypothermia. They include: ...

What is the normal blood pressure range for the elderly? The normal blood pressure range for elderly individuals, typically those aged 65 and older should be less than 120/80 in an ideal scenario. Due to age-related changes in the cardiovascular system, blood pressure might naturally trend high...
