There is limited consensus regarding which presentations should be considered geriatric syndromes. Clinical codes generated following healthcare contacts are commonly used to identify diverse medical conditions. It is well demonstrated that geriatric syndromes are harder to identify using codes, possibly partly due to varying definitions, although identifying information is often located in unstructured text. Accurately identifying geriatric syndromes in healthcare records may therefore require different approaches compared to more firmly defined conditions. We review how studies using Electronic Health Records (EHRs) and derived databases align or differ in terms of geriatric syndromes selected for study, and how the syndromes are identified in the data sources.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      The review was registered on the Open Science Framework (\n                      <jats:ext-link xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" xlink:href=\"https:\/\/osf.io\/9ejhq\" ext-link-type=\"uri\">https:\/\/osf.io\/9ejhq<\/jats:ext-link>\n                      ).
