NSG 6420: FNP I Adult/Gero (NSG6420)

NSG 6420: FNP I Adult/Gero Final Review Study Guide (REVISED) 2023. 1. General Concepts in Geriatrics Impact of physiological changes with aging: Kennedy Chapter 1. The major impact of all of these physiological changes can be highlighted with three primary points. First, there is a reduced physiological reserve of most body systems, particularly cardiac, respiratory, and renal. Second, there are reduced homeostatic mechanisms that fail to adjust regulatory systems such as temperature cont...
