How this list was created
President of Multidisciplinary Association of Geriatrics (AMGe ) invited members of Executive Committee to discuss tests and treatments commonly used in geriatric population that do not provide meaningful benefit for patients. A workgroup of member fellows representing a broad range of clinical expertise (geriatricians, internal medicine specialists, nurses and other members of healthcare staff) identified the list of recommendation relying on clinical experience and literature review. This list is going to be launched during 2019 AMGe National Meeting and thoroughly discussed in events organized by the regional AMGe sections.
