Clayton NA, et al. - Researchers examined patients >75 years admitted to Concord Repatriation General Hospital with severe burn injury over a 4-year period (2013–2017) for the prevalence, and risk factors for dysphagia. Older persons with burns displayed a high dysphagia prevalence. Findings suggest that dysphagia was significantly associated with burn size, pre-existing cognitive impairment, mechanical ventilation, duration of enteral feeding, hospital length of stay, in-hospital complications and mortality.
