Abstract:
Effective and safe swallowing is one of the basic needs for human survival. Dysphagia or swallowing disorders often occur in the elderly and increase with age. Patients often do not complain of dysphagia and compensate by modifying the texture of the food. Frailty is associated with an increased prevalence of dysphagia. Difficulty of chewing, formation and positioning bolus are associated with dysphagia. In addition, dysphagia can cause weakness because there is a disturbance due to decrease nutritional status, muscle function, and can cause recurrent aspiration pneumonia. Frailty and dysphagi

Abstract:
The elderly are the fastest growing proportion of the world population. Additional increase in longevity, brought about by improved medical technology, will impact significantly on the health care system as, with advancing age comes a variety of acute and chronic health conditions. No matter how fit, advancing age leads to reduction in mobility and physical function, and these changes, affect quality of gait and the capacity for functional and safe ambulation. With the frail elderly, gait impairments are often severe and impact on health and quality of life. Given that improving walking capaci

Abstract:
Background: The worldwide ageing demographic trend has resulted in a growing number of frail elderly who are in the last stages of autonomous living. Oral nutritional interventions for the frail elderly address the body’s natural weight loss, sometimes reversing weight loss, though the literature is not of one accord. No review of nutritional interventions has been conducted for community-dwelling frail elderly, who are most likely to benefit from these interventions and delay adverse outcomes.

Abstract:
The increasing number of older people requires serious attention from policy makers and service providers if a crisis in care is to be avoided. This paper presents a biographical study of 9 months in the life of an elderly couple, looking at the problems experienced by them and their family when dealing with different stages of health and social care provision. The study covered periods of general health, hospitalization, reablement and separation. Studying the events arising in each period has provided insights into the requirements of the frail elderly and the adequacy of current provision.
