The Diagnostic Accuracy of the Pitch Glide to Identify Aspiration in Patients with Respiratory Diseases: A Pilot Study
(2019)Introduction: Initial research has been conducted to determine the diagnostic accuracy of the pitch glide during the clinical swallow evaluation to identify aspiration in adults after stroke. Findings suggest that reduced ... -
Effect of effortful swallow on pharyngeal pressures during swallowing in adults with dysphagia: A pharyngeal high-resolution manometry study
(2021)Purpose: Evidence base to support use of the effortful swallow in clinical populations with dysphagia is currently lacking. This study aims to quantify the effects of effortful swallowing on pharyngeal swallowing ... -
Effectiveness of endoscopic cricopharyngeal myotomy in adults with neurological disease: systematic review
(2016)Objective: To determine the effectiveness of endoscopic cricopharyngeal myotomy on upper oesophageal sphincter dysfunction in adults with upper oesophageal sphincter dysfunction and neurological disease. Data ... -
The Epidemiology, Nature, and Impact of Eating and Swallowing Problems in Adults presenting with Temporomandibular Disorders.
(2020)Objective: Temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) are the most common non-dental orofacial pain disorders. Research suggests that patients with TMDs experience eating and swallowing problems, although information is sparse, ... -
ESSD commentary on oropharyngeal dysphagia management during the COVID-19 pandemic
(2020)Since the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 pandemic a Global Public Health Emergency, experts in swallowing are seeking guidance on service delivery and clinical procedures. The European Society for Swallowing ... -
Exercise-Based Dysphagia Rehabilitation for Adults with Oesophageal Cancer: a Systematic Review
(2022)Background: Dysphagia is prevalent in oesophageal cancer with significant clinical and psychosocial complications. The purpose of this study was i) to examine the impact of exercise-based dysphagia rehabilitation on clinical ... -
Impact of Sensory Stimulation on Pharyngo-esophageal Swallowing Biomechanics in Adults with Dysphagia: A High-Resolution Manometry Study
(2020)Evidence supporting sensory stimulation of swallowing is based mostly on videofluoroscopy and provides little insight into changes to swallowing physiology. In this study, the impact of sensory stimulation on pharyngo-esophageal ... -
An intensive neurorehabilitation programme with sEMG biofeedback to improve swallowing in Idiopathic Parkinson's disease (IPD): A feasibility study
(2023)Background: Studies suggest swallow intervention programmes that incorporate visual biofeedback and motor programming principles can improve swallowing and quality of life for people with idiopathic Parkinson's disease ... -
Inter-rater Reliability of the Dysphagia Outcome and Severity Scale (DOSS): Effects of Clinical Experience, Audio-Recording and Training
(2017)The Dysphagia Outcome and Severity Scale (DOSS) is widely used to measure dysphagia severity based on videofluoroscopy (VFSS). This study investigated inter-rater reliability (IRR) of the DOSS. It also determined the effect ... -
Interventions for Feeding and Swallowing Disorders in Adults with Intellectual Disability: A Systematic Review of the Evidence
(2020)Feeding and swallowing disorders are prevalent in adults with Intellectual Disability (ID) and can potentially lead to discomfort, malnutrition, dehydration, aspiration, and choking. Most common interventions ... -
Interventions for oropharyngeal dysphagia in acute and critical care: A systematic review and meta analysis
(2020)Purpose: To determine the effectiveness of dysphagia interventions compared to standard care in improving oral intake and reducing aspiration for adults in acute and critical care. Methods: We searched electronic ... -
The Lived Experiences of Oropharyngeal Dysphagia in Adults Living with Fibromyalgia
(2024)Background: Fibromyalgia is a chronic pain condition which has recently been linked with eating, drinking and swallowing difficulties (dysphagia). However, to date, sample sizes within completed research are small and study ...
