Abstract
This Minireview article explores the critical role of electrolytes in geriatric gastric patients, emphasising their significance in managing gastrointestinal disorders. Elderly individuals are prone to electrolyte imbalances due to age-related physiological changes and the prevalence of gastric conditions. The review discusses the diagnostic methods, treatment strategies, and clinical outcomes associated with electrolyte disturbances in this population. Furthermore, it highlights the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration and personalised approaches in addressing electrolyte imbalances to improve patient outcomes.
