Abstract
The well-documented interaction of mind and body provides clinicians with an imperative to understand and respond to both patients psychologic and physiologic needs. An introduction to psychologic aspects common to athletes and to some emotional and psychologic characteristics of aging patients provides a foundation from which practitioners can more rapidly and effectively respond to the specific needs of individual aging athletes. Guidelines for patient interactions are offered to enable clinicians to reduce frustration and to improve both the rate and frequency of patient compliance and recovery. Improved doctor/patient interactions are seen as the heart of healing. Verf.-Referat
