Overview

Dysphagia is a common symptom seen in the elderly poplulation owing to senile physiological changes in the muscles involved in deglutition. The prevalance of dysphagia in the elderly population is 7% to 22% per 100,000 individuals. Patients of all age groups may develop dysphagia and the incidence of dysphagia increases with age.

Epidemiology and Demographics

The epidemiology and demographics of dysphagia are as follows:[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13]

Incidence

  • The annual incidence of esophageal food impaction is 25 per 100,000 persons per year.
  • There are a number of causes of different types of dysphagia across the world of which the most common is stroke among the elderly.
  • In Asia, esophageal squamous cell cancer is a common cause of dysphagia while in Africa, Chagas disease is a prevailing etiology.[14]
  • The incidence progressively increases with age, reaching the peak around seventh decade of life.
  • The incidence is higher in males as compared to females.

Prevalance

  • The prevalance of dysphagia in the elderly population is 7% to 22% per 100,000 individuals.
  • It increases to 40% to 50% per 100,000 individuals among geriatric population residing in long-term care facility.
  • Increased prevalance of dysphagia is found in post-stroke patients, acute care settings and nursing care facilities.

Age

  • Patients of all age groups may develop dysphagia, resulting either from structural damage, congenital abnormalities and medical conditions.
  • The incidence of dysphagia increases with age.
