Summary

This study aimed to find out how common swallowing problems are in older adults who survive an ICU stay, and how those problems affect their recovery and quality of life. Researchers planned to evaluate swallowing safety, cough strength, and frailty in participants. However, the study was withdrawn before any volunteers were enrolled.
