This scoping review aimed to explore the characteristics, strengths, and gaps in research conducted in Brazilian long-term care facilities (LTCFs) for older adults. Electronic searches investigating the residents (≥60 years old), their families, and the LTCF workforce in Brazil were conducted in Medline, EMBASE, LILACS, and Google Scholar, within the timescale of 1999 to 2018, limited to English, Portuguese, or Spanish. The reference lists were hand searched for additional papers. The Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool (MMAT) was used for critical appraisal of evidence. Data were reported descriptively considering the study design, using content analysis: 327 studies were included (n = 159 quantitative non-randomized, n = 82 quantitative descriptive, n = 67 qualitative, n = 11 mixed methods, n = 6 randomized controlled trials, and n = 2 translation of assessment tools). Regardless of the study design, most were conducted in a single LTCF (45.8%), in urban locations (84.3%), and in non-profit settings (38.7%). The randomized trials and descriptive studies presented the lowest methodological quality based on the MMAT. This is the first review to provide an overview of research on LTCFs for older people in Brazil. It illustrates an excess of small-scale, predominantly qualitative papers, many of which are reported in ways that do not allow the quality of the work to be assured.

This paper reports a scoping review of the literature on eating difficulties among older adults with dementia in long-term care facilities to identify key concepts, methods of measuring outcomes, interventions, and related factors. A scoping review was performed using the bibliographic databases PubMed, CINAHL, PsycINFO, and Cochrane Library. A combination of keywords and subject headings related to eating or feeding difficulties was used. Inclusion criteria were limited to materials published in English. A total of 1070 references were retrieved, of which 39 articles were selected after applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Articles that met the criteria were published between 1987 and 2020. “Eating disabilities” have been defined as problems related to choosing food and/or the ability to get food to one’s mouth, chew, and swallow. Interventions for eating difficulties described in the literature include spaced retrieval training, Montessori training, and feeding skill training. Intrapersonal, interpersonal, and environmental factors related to eating difficulties were identified. This scoping review will provide direct care workers, nursing educators, and administrators with an overview of eating performance and a broad understanding of eating difficulties for older adults with dementia in long-term care facilities.

Abstract This study aims to synthesize existing literature concerning eating difficulties among older adults with dementia in long-term care facilities. A scoping review, using the framework proposed by Arksey & O'Malley (2005) and improved and supplemented by Levac et al. (2010), was conducted. Literature was searched from five bibliographic databases—Research Information Sharing Service (RISS), Korean studies Information Service System (KISS), National Digital Science Library (NDSJ), Korean Medical Database (KMBASE), DataBase Periodical Information Academic(DBPia), Google Scholar, and gray literature. Literature selection and characteristics were approved by two independent reviewers, using pre-tested forms to determine final inclusion. Eventually, 111 articles from 2012–2020 were identified, and the 11 articles were used for the final analysis. We found that primarily utilized Eating behavior scale (EBS) and Edinburgh feeding evaluation in dementia scale (EdFED) had utilized as measurement tools for evaluating eating behavior. The most common factors related to eating behavior of older adults with dementia included cognitive and physical functions in the individual domain, the caregiver's attitude toward eating in the inter-individual domain, and types of meal in the environmental domain. Therefore, it is essential to develop measurement tools that reflect the eating behavior of older adults with dementia, a comprehensive understanding of the eating behavior of old adults with dementia, and create effective interventions that can be implemented in the specificity of long-term care facilities in Korea. The results of this analysis are intended to be used as basis to develop a meal support programs for older adults with dementia.
