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:

Frailty is an expression that reconciles and condenses loss of autonomy, both physical and cognitive decline and a wide spectrum of adverse outcomes due to aging. The decrease in physical and cognitive activity is associated with altered mitochondrial function, and energy loss and consequently morbidity and mortality. In this cross-sectional study, we evaluated the carnitine levels in frailty status. The mean serum concentrations of total carnitine (TC) were lower in frail elderly subjects than in prefrail ones (p = 0.0006), higher in frail vs. robust subjects (p < 0.0001), and higher in pr

Abstract:

Pre-frail dan frail elderly are susceptible to dysphagia. Dysphagia leads to vulnerability to aspiration pneumonia, undernutrition, and dehydration, which negatively affect physical condition and quality of life. Expiratory muscle strength training (EMST) is an intervention for dysphagia. However, the effects of EMST on pre-frail elderly are still unclear. This study aimed to investigate effectiveness of expiratory muscle training on dysphagia risk of pre-frail elderly. The study design was a randomized clinical trial.

Moreover, there was a severe shortage of doctors and nurses too. With the progress of the pandemic, the hospitals became increasingly overburdened.
