It combines standard cardiology with geriatric principles like frailty, function, cognition, and medication safety. It is commonly used in outpatient clinics, hospitals, and perioperative (around surgery) planning for older patients. The goal is to match heart treatment choices to a person\u2019s health status, goals, and day-to-day function."}
