Acesso em: 31 maio 2023.https://repositorio.ufrn.br/handle/123456789/52583Purpose: To identify the most prevalent signs and symptoms of oropharyngeal dysphagia in elderly adults who live in old folks’ home. Research strategy: Integrative review carried out in four databases: Embase, Lilacs, MEDLINE/Pubmed, and Web of Science using English terms and filters for language and age. Selection criteria: Studies available in the full-text form in English, Portuguese or Spanish, with no publication time restrictions, related to elderly people living in care homes who reported oropharyngeal dysphagia. Studies related to elderly people in the community or in hospitals and with other health issuesthat were not related to swallowing disorders were excluded. Results: Of 389 studies, 16 were included in this review, published between 1986 and 2020. There was a predominance of female participants whose minimum mean age was 71 and maximum, 87. The most frequent signs and symptoms of oropharyngeal dysphagia were the presence of coughing and choking, in addition to other relevant ones, such as diminished tongue pressure, wet voice, weight loss, and slow swallowing. Conclusion: According to the reviewed studies, the most frequent signs and symptoms related to oropharyngeal dysphagia in elderly people living in care homes were (the) presence of coughing and choking, before, during or after swallowing.Attribution-NonCommercial 3.0 Brazilhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/br/instituição de longa permanência para idosossinais e sintomastranstornos de deglutiçãoidosorevisãohomes for the agedsigns and symptomsdeglutition disordersarticlehttps://doi.org/10.1590/2317-6431-2021-2492
