Due to the changing age structure of the Western population, an increase in geriatric patients in endoprosthetic care of hip and knee joints is to be expected in the future. The age-related frailty and the existing comorbidities pose great challenges for the entire treatment team. In the preoperative phase, geriatric patients should be identified as such and adjustable risk factors should be addressed prior to surgery. The primary goals of treatment are to minimize trauma from anesthesia and endoprosthetic surgery to ensure immediate postoperative mobilization of patients. At the same time, any perioperative complications, especially intensive care treatments, should be prevented. This is achieved excellently with algorithms that are well known from fast-track surgery.
