AORTA (Anesthesia for Older Adults Research Taskforce)

AORTA (Anesthesia for Older Adults Research Taskforce) is a group of medical experts dedicated to studying how anesthesia affects older adults during surgery. As aging can change how bodies respond to anesthesia, their research aims to improve safety and outcomes for seniors. They review current practices, identify risks, and develop guidelines tailored to the unique needs of older patients. The goal is to ensure that anesthesia is used effectively, minimizing complications and supporting better recovery for older individuals undergoing surgical procedures.
