| Popis: | Dysphagia is an important clinical problem in older adults with heart failure. Moreover, evidence is scarce regarding the prevalence and impact of dysphagia on physical function in these patients. This study examined the association of dysphagia and physical function in patients undergoing cardiac rehabilitation following heart failure. This prospective cohort study included consecutive 149 (mean age 78.6 years, 72 women) inpatients in an acute-care hospital. Outcomes included the Food Intake Level Scale (FILS) and Barthel Index (BI) as indicators of dysphagia status and physical function, respectively. Multivariate analyses were used to determine whether FILS scores on admission and at the point of heart failure stabilization were associated with BI at discharge. Of the 149 patients, 14 (9.4%) had dysphagia at the time of stabilization of heart failure. Patients with dysphagia (FILS score |
