Abstract:
Objective:To investigate and analyze the status quo and risk factors of swallowing function and safe eating behavior in elderly type 2 diabetes patients with frailty, so as to provide a reference for clinical early identification and early prevention.Methods:From July 2021 to December 2022, 295 patients with type 2 diabetes accompanied with frailty were selected from the Endocrinology Department of Beijing Friendship Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University by convenience sampling. Patients were surveyed using the Tilburg Frailty Indicator (TFI) and the Eating Assessment Tool-10. Single factor analysis and Logistic regression analysis were used to explore the influencing factors of swallowing function and safe eating behavior in elderly type 2 diabetes patients with frailty.Results:A total of 295 questionnaires were distributed, and 291 valid questionnaires were collected, with an effective response rate of 98.64%. There were 94 cases in the group with abnormal swallowing function and safe eating behavior, and 197 cases in the group with normal swallowing function and safe eating behavior. There were statistical differences in age, body mass index, duration of diabetes, TFI score, education level, and number of chronic diseases between the two groups ( P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that the duration of diabetes ( OR=1.047, P=0.024), TFI score ( OR=1.147, P=0.009), and the number of chronic diseases ( OR=1.282, P=0.035) were the influencing factors of swallowing function and safe eating behavior in elderly type 2 diabetes patients with frailty. Conclusions:Abnormal swallowing function and safe eating behavior are common in elderly type 2 diabetes patients with frailty, and the duration of diabetes, frailty and chronic comorbidity are independent risk factors.
