Geriatric medicine which is that branch of of medicine which is concerned with the clinical, preventive and rehabilitative aspects of care of older persons, has much to offer in relieving the suffering and increasing the disability free years they can enjoy. Recent advances in Geriatric Medicine based on well designed randomized trials and meta-analysis that are clinically significant to the practicing physician are reviewed in this article.
