摘要
More than half of all patients hospitalized with cardiovascular disease today are older than 75 years. The evidence level for recommendations in cardiovascular guidelines is often low despite the large number of randomized trials. This is especially true for elderly patients who have not been represented well in cardiovascular trials. All efforts should be made to establish a database sufficient for treatment recommendations in the growing group of elderly patients with cardiovascular diseases.
