The efficacy of pre-thickened fluids on total fluid and nutrient consumption among extended care residents requiring thickened fluids due to risk of aspiration.
SIR—Dysphagia is associated with many neurological and neuromuscular conditions including stroke and Parkinson’s disease. Consequently dysphagia is a common condition in our patient population. Treatment of dysphagia necessitates the use of thickened fluids, however there are problems with the use of thickener. Failure to achieve the recommended consistency can increase the risk of aspiration. ...
متن کاملDesign of Thickener by Computer
A mathematical method for calculation of the minimum cross-sectional area of a thickener is presented by obtaining minimum laboratory batch settling test data, a function, which is called settling function, is derived. This function is found to be in the form of a polynomial of third order. The settling function and mass flux relation are used for the design of thickener. The method predict...
متن کاملThe relationship between sodium intake and some bone minerals and osteoporosis risk assessment instrument in postmenopausal women
Background: The results of the studies on the effects of sodium on bone metabolism have been inconsistent. There is no definitive answer to the question of whether sodium restriction can be associated with a lower incidence of osteoporosis. What reinforces the necessity of designing this study is the lack of findings with the approach of examining the effects of sodium on bone in our country. ...
متن کاملEffect of NaCl Addition on Rheological Behaviors of Commercial Gum-Based Food Thickener Used for Dysphagia Diets
Rheological properties of thickened fluids used for consumption by people with dysphagia (swallowing difficulty) are very sensitive to several factors, such as thickener type, temperature, pH, sugar, protein, and NaCl. In this study, steady and dynamic rheological properties of thickened water samples mixed with five commercial xanthan gum-based food thickeners (A~E) were studied in the presenc...
متن کاملThe relationship between pregnancy weight gain and impaired glucose tolerance test
Impaired glucose tolerance has several adverse effects on growing fetus. In this study we evaluated the effect of excessive weight gain during pregnancy on the risk of glucose intolerance in pregnant women. A case-control study was conducted through which the glucose tolerance status after 100 gram oral glucose intake was compared between 60 pregnant women with maximum 10 weeks of gestation and...
