About
Wojciech Korga’s research focuses on geriatric pharmacology, with a particular emphasis on the risks associated with polypharmacy and polypragmasy in elderly populations. His most cited work, a 2018 study co-authored with Bartoszek Adrian, Sagan Andrzej, and Szalast Kamil, investigates the critical connection between multiple medication use and falls among older adults. Published in the *Journal of Education, Health and Sport*, this paper has garnered 2 citations and highlights the dangerous interplay between excessive drug regimens and increased fall risk—a leading cause of morbidity in the aging population. Korga’s contribution lies in drawing clinical attention to how the cumulative burden of prescribed and over-the-counter medications can compromise balance and coordination, thereby elevating fall incidence. This work underscores the urgent need for deprescribing strategies and careful medication review in geriatric care. While his citation count remains modest, Korga’s research addresses a pressing public health issue, offering practical insights for clinicians managing complex elderly patients. His findings serve as a valuable resource for healthcare professionals seeking to mitigate iatrogenic harm and improve quality of life in later years.
