Official title
Effectivity of Early Recovery Accelerated Swallowing Program on Promoting Swallowing Recovery in Older Patients With High Risk of Oral Frailty Requiring Endotracheal Intubation During General Anesthesia: a Pilot Randomized Control Trial
Overview
The investigators studied that swallowing function of patients receiving the Early Recovery Accelerated Swallowing (ERAS-W program) training will recover fast than that of patients in the control group. The ERAS program training will be initiated before surgery and continue to after surgery.
Detailed description
The older patients (≥65 years old) with OFI-8≥4 undergoing elective orthopedic surgery requiring tracheal intubation will be recruited. Patients will be randomized into an intervention and a control group. Patients in the intervention groups will received the ERAS-W program, while those in the control group will receive the swallowing education video.
Interventions
- Behavioral early rehabiliation swallowing program
not receiving early rehabilitation swallowing program from before and after surgery - Behavioral not receiving early rehabilitation swallowing program
the Taiwan Dysphagia Society's publicly shared swallowing exercises for dysphagia, which is from before and after surgery
Primary outcome measures
- UES pressure, mmHg [Time frame: about six months]
