This study aimed to describe the prevalence of xerostomia and hyposalivation and examine their associations with xerogenic medications and frailty in acutely ill older adults.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This cross\u2010sectional study included patients aged \u2265\u200970\u2009years admitted to the Municipal In\u2010Patient Acute Care unit in Oslo, Norway. General xerostomia was defined as a score \u2265\u20093 on the General Xerostomia Question (GXQ). Specific xerostomia was measured with the Summated Xerostomia Inventory (SXI). Objective dry mouth measures included unstimulated whole saliva (UWS) secretion rate and the Clinical Oral Dryness Score (CODS), with hyposalivation defined as UWS\u2009\u2264\u20090.1\u2009mL\/min. Examination of dentition included numbers of missing teeth and posterior occluding pairs of teeth. Medication data included total drug burden and number of xerogenic medications. Frailty was assessed using the Clinical Frailty Scale (CFS). Associations were analyzed using logistic regression models.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Among 382 patients (mean age 84\u2009years, 72% women), general xerostomia was present in 30% and hyposalivation in 56%. Mean number (SD) of xerogenic medications was 3.7 (\u00b12.2). The number of xerogenic medications used was significantly associated with general xerostomia in both unadjusted (OR: 1.17, 95% CI: 1.05\u20131.29) and adjusted models (OR: 1.13, 95% CI: 1.01\u20131.26). Median UWS declined numerically with increasing number of xerogenic medications. Higher CFS scores were associated with increased subjective xerostomia scores (GXQ and SXI), elevated CODS, more missing teeth, and reduced occlusion, but not with general xerostomia or hyposalivation when predefined cut\u2010off values were applied.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Xerostomia and hyposalivation were common among acutely ill older adults.
