Area of Science:

  • Gerontology
  • Clinical Nutrition
  • Rehabilitation Medicine

Background:

  • Sarcopenic dysphagia is a recently identified condition characterized by swallowing difficulties stemming from generalized muscle weakness, particularly affecting the muscles involved in swallowing.
  • It is increasingly recognized as a significant health concern, especially among the elderly population.
  • Risk factors include advanced age, pre-existing medical conditions, and physical frailty, which can impair daily living activities.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To highlight the importance of prevention, assessment, and intervention strategies for sarcopenic dysphagia.
  • To emphasize the need for multidisciplinary approaches in managing this condition.
  • To review recent advancements in therapeutic interventions.
