Accuracy of the volume-viscosity swallow test for clinical screening of oropharyngeal dysphagia and aspiration.
AIMS To determine the accuracy of the bedside volume-viscosity swallow test (V-VST) for clinical screening of impaired safety and efficacy of deglutition. METHODS We studied 85 patients with dysphagia and 12 healthy subjects. Series of 5-20 mL nectar (295.02 mPa.s), liquid (21.61 mPa.s) and pudding (3682.21 mPa.s) bolus were administered during the V-VST and videofluoroscopy. Cough, fall in o...
متن کاملThe volume-viscosity swallow test for clinical screening of dysphagia and aspiration.
BACKGROUND Oropharyngeal dysphagia (OD) is a major complaint among many patients with neurological diseases and in the elderly, but is often underdiagnosed. The volume-viscosity swallow test (V-VST) is a bedside method to screen patients for dysphagia. METHODS The V-VST was designed to identify clinical signs of impaired efficacy (labial seal, oral and pharyngeal residue, and piecemeal deglut...
متن کاملLeukoaraiosis is associated with pneumonia after acute ischemic stroke
BACKGROUND Stroke-associated pneumonia (SAP) is common in patients with acute ischemic stroke, and several risk factors have been reported. However, the relationship between underlying leukoaraiosis (LA) and SAP has not been addressed. METHODS We collected consecutive patients with acute ischemic stroke within 24 h of symptom onset. SAP was defined as the lower respiratory tract infection wit...
متن کاملNovel risk score to predict pneumonia after acute ischemic stroke.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE To develop and validate a risk score (acute ischemic stroke-associated pneumonia score [AIS-APS]) for predicting in-hospital stroke-associated pneumonia (SAP) after AIS. METHODS The AIS-APS was developed based on the China National Stroke Registry, in which eligible patients were randomly classified into derivation (60%) and internal validation cohort (40%). External va...
متن کاملdysphagia in acute ischemic stroke
Introduction: Swallowing dysfunction complicates acute strokes in 25-32% of cases and directly affects patientschr('39') prognosis and recovery. Dysphagia complicates the course of acute strokes through its potential of the development of chest infection, nutritional problems, and dehydration. Dysphagia is also an independent predictor of respiratory morbidity and mortality in acute stroke. In...
