This is a prospective, randomized controlled clinical trail involved Elderly Patients With Dysphagia.The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the clinical effect of Intermittent Oro-esophageal Tube Feeding in Elderly Patients With Dysphagia. The main questions it aims to answer:
Can Intermittent Nutritional Tube Supplementation help improve the nutritional status in Elderly Patients With Dysphagia.
Participants will be divided into two groups randomly. All patients are given routine rehabilitation and the intervention group is given Intermittent Oro-esophageal Tube Feeding once a day.
The current situation of dysphagia in elderly individuals is characterized by difficulty or discomfort in swallowing. This condition can occur due to various factors such as muscle weakness, neurological disorders, or structural abnormalities in the throat or esophagus. Dysphagia can lead to complications such as malnutrition, dehydration, aspiration pneumonia, and reduced quality of life. It is important for healthcare professionals to assess and manage dysphagia in elderly patients to ensure proper nutrition and prevent potential health risks.

| Intermittent Oro-esophageal Tube Feeding | Device | The group is given enteral nutritional support with Intermittent Oro-esophageal Tube according to the following procedure: Before each feeding, inside and outside of the tube was cleaned with water. During feeding, the patient should maintain a semi-reclining or sitting position with mouth opened, and the tube was inserted slowly and smoothly into the upper part of the esophagus by medical staffs while the appropriate depth of intubation was checked with the calibration markings on the tube wall. The distance from the incisors to the head part of the tube should be between 22-25 cm. |
