With population aging and advances in dialysis technology,the proportion of elderly people among hemodialysis patients is getting higher,making concurrent geriatric syndromes an important issue that deserves particular consideration in the management of dialysis patients in clinical practice.Common geriatric syndromes,such as frailty,sarcopenia,malnutrition,physical dysfunction,cognitive impairment and depression,have a high prevalence in hemodialysis patients and are associated with poor prognosis.Comprehensive geriatric assessment of elderly hemodialysis patients can identify high-risk patients early,help implement stratified care,and serve as a valuable guide in the improvement of patients'prognosis and quality of life.
