Application of Multi-task Collaborative Intervention in Older Adults with Oral Frailty

doi:10.13701/j.cnki.kqyxyj.2025.09.001

Abstract

Abstract: Oral frailty is an emerging health issue that has attracted widespread attention, but most studies in China have focused on conceptualization, development of screening tools, and epidemiological characterization, while systematic research on its pathological mechanisms and intervention strategies is still insufficient. Although a single oral function training, exercise, or nutritional intervention can partially improve oral frailty in older adults, recent evidence suggests that a collaborative intervention strategy based on multi-systemic interactions has more significant clinical advantages. In this paper, we systematically analyze the pathophysiological basis of oral frailty, elucidate the mechanism of multidimensional synergistic interventions (combined oral-exercise-nutritional interventions), and comparatively analyze the clinical effects of different intervention modes, with the aim of providing evidence-based evidence for the construction of a comprehensive management program of oral health in older adults.

Key words: older adults, oral frailty, multi-task collaborative intervention, non-pharmacological interventions
