“…Having a proper fluid intake prevents older people from suffering acute health problems. These can include falls [67], fractures [68], pressure ulcers [29,68], constipation [67], urinary infections [68][69][70], and other kidney problems such as stones [40,71], functional impairment, and being undernourished [29]. Moreover, older people who suffer dehydration also risk suffering acute coronary events (1.6% vs. 0.7%, OR 1.16, 95% CI 1.03-1.32), pneumonia (3.4% vs. 1.5%, OR 1.23, 95% CI 1.13-1.34), and thromboembolism (1.8% vs. 0.9%, OR 1.28, 95% CI 1.14-1.42) [72].…”

“…However, a meta-analysis carried out by De Vecchis et al [89] found that liberal fluid consumption (>2.0 L/day) did not appear to exert an unfavorable impact on adult patients with chronic heart failure (mean age 69.5 years, age range [60][61][62][63][64][65][66][67][68][69][70][71][72][73][74][75]. Patients whose fluid intake was limited had similar rehospitalization and mortality rates to those with no fluid intake limit.…”

Fluid Intake Recommendation Considering the Physiological Adaptations of Adults Over 65 Years: A Critical Review

et al. 2020

The aim of this critical review was to clarify recommended fluid intake for older people. A literature search of published articles and guidelines on fluid intake recommendations until April 2020 was carried out using PUBMED, Scopus, Cochrane, and Google Scholar. In this review, we focused on people over 65 years old at different care levels. The results show that the mean fluid intake ranges between 311 and 2390 mL/day. However, it is difficult to know whether this corresponds to the real pattern of fluid intake, due to the variability of data collection methods. With respect to the recommendations, most international organizations do not take into consideration the physiology of ageing or the health problems associated with an older population. In conclusions, we recommend to follow the guideline of the European Society for Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism (ESPEN) and the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA). ESPEN is the only guideline which takes into account age. It is also based on EFSA recommendations. This authority takes into consideration all fluids consumed (ranging from food to fluids). If it is known that around 20% of all fluids consumed come from food, the result would effectively be that the EFSA recommends the same as the ESPEN guidelines: 1.6 L/day for females and 2.0 L/day for males. The findings could help raise the awareness of professionals in the sector with respect to the required fluid intake of the elderly and, in this way, contribute to avoiding the consequences of dehydration.

“…This is a curious omission, given the central objective of 'set completion' underpinning much literature on collecting and collectors (e.g. -Olmsted, 1987), and is clearly central to the Munro-bagging pastime (McNeish, 1996). Naturally, Munro-bagging has certain characteristics which separate it from, for example, philately (stamp collecting), and either complicate or prevent the applicability of theory into this context.…”

Emerging Transformations in Tourism and Hospitality

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

In this chapter, we explore how Munro-baggers share and collect information, experiences and identity in online spaces, and the potential influence exerted by this emerging phenomenon upon Scottish Highlands adventure tourism. The 282 Munros are Scottish mountains at least 3,000 feet (914.4m) high. Several thousand Munro-baggers are attempting to climb each and become 'Munroists'. The pastime appears to be growing, encouraged by Electronic Word of Mouth (eWOM) within digital communities. It is in transformation, as much of the interaction between enthusiasts, and much of the visibility of the pastime, is migrating from offline to online spaces, but it is also transformative inasmuch as it changes the manner in which potential tourists perceive the Highlands, and the contexts in which they understand them. The economic contribution of Munro-baggers to Scotland is significant and they convey the Highland 'brand' to other tourists. However, most Munrobagging literature is tangential, barely exploring the influence of community, sharing and collecting behaviours, social media and eWOM upon 'imaginative travel' (Urry, 2002, p.256). This chapter utilises theory on collecting and sharing, and heeds recent calls for netnography (Mkono & Markwell, 2014)the study of online communities -to contemporise understanding of adventure tourist interactions and consider implications for tourism marketing.
