Prevalence and complications of oropharyngeal dysphagia (OD) malnutrition (MN) in COVID-19 patients is unknown. Our aim was to assess the prevalence, risk factors clinical outcomes OD MN a general hospital during first wave pandemic.
ABSTRACT Background: The therapeutic effect and optimal rheological properties of thick purees for hospitalized patients with oropharyngeal dysphagia (OD) have not yet been settled. Objectives: objectives this study were to (a) Quantify the 6 Texture C, BDA ; (b) Determine biomechanics oral processing its on properties; (c) Evaluate safety efficacy swallowing in OD . Methods: Six pureed dishes (30 g) given 20 aged 84 ± 7.2 years. Oral was measured using electromyography. Rheological textural...
The optimal textural properties and therapeutic effects of fork-Mashable dishes for hospitalized older patients with oropharyngeal dysphagia (OD) have not been adequately defined. This study aimed to (a) quantify the six (British Dietetic Association (BDA) texture E; International Dysphagia Diet Standardization Initiative (IDDSI) level 6), (b) assess impact oral processing on texture, (c) evaluate their safety efficacy in OD. Twenty (85 ± 4.51 years) consumed 30 g dishes. Oral was analyzed...
COVID-19 hospital mortality is higher among older patients through as yet little-known factors. We aimed to assess the effect of frailty (FR), oropharyngeal dysphagia (OD) and malnutrition (MN) on in hospitalized patients. Prospective cohort study (>70 years) with admitted a general from April 2020 January 2021. Patients were evaluated admission, discharge at 1- 3-months follow up. FR was assessed FRAIL-VIG, OD Volume-Viscosity Swallowing Test MN GLIM criteria. Clinical characteristics...
Oropharyngeal dysphagia (OD) is a prevalent geriatric syndrome causing severe nutritional and respiratory complications. We aimed to describe the characteristics therapeutic needs of older patients with OD admitted general hospital. Prospective cohort study (≥70 years) consecutively was clinically assessed Volume-Viscosity Swallowing Test status Mini Nutritional Assessment-short form. Oral health (OH) periodontal diseases were evaluated by dentists. Functionality, frailty, sarcopenia,...
Background: The phenotype of patients affected by COVID-19 disease changed between the waves pandemic. We assessed prevalence oropharyngeal dysphagia (OD), malnutrition (MN), and mortality first three in a general hospital. Methods: prospective observational study April 2020–May 2021. Clinical assessment for OD was made with volume-viscosity swallowing test; nutritional performed consistent GLIM criteria. A multimodal intervention implemented second third wave, including (a) texturized...
