The number of elderly patients is constantly increasing in emergency medicine. It is important to be familiar with the particularities of the diagnostics and treatment of elderly patients in order to prevent incorrect assessments. Some of these particularities in the treatment of geriatric patients will be discussed in greater detail based on the example of an 82-year-old female patient with pneumonia. In addition to the compilation of the medical history, certain symptoms such as dyspnoea and delirium will be addressed, as will diagnostic pitfalls such as the assessment of body temperature and laboratory values. © Springer-Verlag 2012.
