| Abstract | Age should not be a limiting factor for optimal surgical care of cancer. Preoperative assessment and therapeutic line decision must be a multidisciplinary team work. A specific geriatric oncology consultation would help assessing the level of autonomy or dependence, the patient cognitive functions and his nutritional status. The preoperative interview and clinical examination aim to assess the overall general health of the patient and to detect cardiovascular, pulmonary and neurological disorders which are the main postoperative factors of morbidity and mortality, other than related to tumor itself. Many scores of surgical risk assessment have been proposed. The Charlson index and the CIRS-G are the most widely used. Because of pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic changes related to age, new anesthesia techniques, such as target intravenous anesthesia (TIVA), which allow fine adjustment of anesthesia level according to the patient individual parameters (age, weight, height, sex) will be preferred. The most frequent postoperative complications are those related to hypothermia, pain and postoperative cognitive dysfunction. The main objective of the preoperative care of the elderly person is a rapid return to autonomy in a familiar environment. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
