| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In 2014, we detected oral candida in independent elderly over 60 living in a victim area of Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami. The follow-up survey was conducted one year later. The aims of the surveys were to elucidate follows. First, distribution of oral candida in independent elderly. Second, factors of colonization of oral candida. Moreover, factors relating to difference in detection results of oral candida from single subjects between first and second surveys. At the first survey, over 60% of subjects harbored oral candida. The colonization related factors of C. albicans involved a long evacuation. While, concerning non-albicans,oral status such as present teeth number and wearing denture were mainly associated. From comparisons of 2 survey results, stable detection results were obtained from subjects with a certain amount or more of candida in the specimens. These results should be considered in oral care planning for high aged elderly or perioperative patients.
