A research on determining the current state of studies conducted in the field of geriatric rehabilitation and examining them from a gerontological perspective

As life expectancy increases, the possibility of reaching older ages also increases. As age progresses, accidents, traumas and illnesses that a person has experienced in the past or at an advanced age affect the negative aspects of the individual's life. Many disciplines are working collaboratively to reduce post-traumatic effects and eliminate dysfunctions. In this process, the branch of Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation has an important place in various treatments and post-traumatic treatments for all age groups. The performance and distribution of the diseases that are applied and applied in order to find solutions in the period when increasing old age is experienced is high, and the success of the treatment in the clinic is positive and significantly limited. This thesis study is about determining the existing pieces of literature in the field of Geriatric Rehabilitation; The literature will continue, it will show the general situation of the topics of further study, repetitions will be prevented, by clarifying the targets, the effectiveness of sales and growth will increase further. In this thesis, where situation analysis was carried out with the qualitative research method, research based on literature review was conducted. In the reports that have been available for 10 years, it is estimated that the literature emerging in existing regions will be directed in line with the needs without falling into repetition and that the way for regional academic data flow will be paved according to the task of guiding the new research. At the same time, a holistic treatment will be presented from the perspective of Gerontology, which is the science of old age and aging, and will contribute to making the solution to the problems of the elderly more efficient and effective. When evaluated in general; It has been determined that the elderly individuals registered in total are concentrated in a limited area that is geriatric compatible. It has been seen that future people need more comprehensive, advanced and effective treatments to cope with the increasing life limits of the elderly and their health problems.
