The current oral intake practice and clinical management strategies for addressing dysphagia in the ICU are not well-defined. This study aimed to elucidate the clinical practices surrounding oral intake restrictions due to dysphagia and its management strategies in the ICU. A multicenter, prospective, cross-sectional, 2-day point prevalence study was conducted in Japan. Relevant data on the clinical circumstances surrounding oral intake practice and the implementation of strategies to prevent dysphagia for patients admitted to the ICU on November 1, 2023, and December 1, 2023, were collected. The primary outcome was the prevalence of oral intake restrictions in patients, defined by a Functional Oral Intake Scale score of less than 7 among eligible patients for oral intake. Out of 326 participants, 187 were eligible for the final analysis after excluding 139 patients who were not eligible for oral intake, primarily due to tracheal intubation. Among those eligible, 69.0% (129/187) encountered oral intake restrictions. About 52.4% (98/187) of patients underwent swallowing screenings; 36.7% (36/98) of these were suspected of having dysphagia. Compensatory and behavioral swallowing rehabilitation were provided to 21.9% (41/187) and 10.6% (20/187) of patients, respectively, from ICU admission to the survey date. Only 27.4% (14/51) of post-extubation and 9.3% (3/32) of post-stroke patients received swallowing rehabilitation. Notably, no ICUs had dedicated speech and language therapists, and most (85.7%, 18/21) lacked established swallowing rehabilitation protocols. This 2-point prevalence survey study revealed that oral intake restrictions due to dysphagia are common in ICUs, but few patients are screened for swallowing issues or receive rehabilitation. More clinical studies are needed to develop effective protocols for identifying and managing dysphagia, including screenings and rehabilitation in the ICU.</p>","PeriodicalId":11508,"journal":{"name":"Dysphagia","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-10-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142460676","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Besides the medical and societal consequences, dysphagia has a negative impact on functioning, activity, participation and quality of life. These aspects are all affected by the environmental factors (EF). However, patient-reported outcome measures (PROMS) such as the Head-and-Neck Cancer Survivors' Assessment of Mealtimes (HNSAM), which thoroughly assess participation and EF in addition to function and activity, are rare. Therefore, this study aimed to translate and validate the HNSAM into Dutch (D-HNSAM). The HNSAM was translated according to the standardized procedure of translation & back-translation and according to the international cross-cultural adaptation process. A pilot study was then conducted with 10 HNC patients to assess the linguistic features and comprehensibility of the test items. Finally, the D-HNSAM was completed by 50 participants who were at least 6 months post-treatment for HNC. The Performance Status Scale for Head and Neck cancer patients (PSS-HN)- subscales normalcy of diet and eating in public, the Dysphagia Handicap Index (DHI), the Functional Oral Intake scale (FOIS) and the Utrecht Scale for Evaluation of Rehabilitation-Participation (USER-P) were used to examine the psychometric properties of the D-HNSAM. High correlations with related assessment tools and low correlations with unrelated assessment tools were expected. Internal consistency was found to be weak to good. Test-retest reliability, convergent validity and divergent validity were demonstrated except for the EF subscale. The D-HNSAM can detect differences in impact of dysphagia on daily functioning and quality of life. The D-HNSAM is a reliable and clinically valuable PROM for assessing the impact of dysphagia on daily functioning and quality of life in patients with HNC.

The pharyngeal phase relies on highly coordinated movements in the pharynx and larynx to move food through the aerodigestive crossing. While the brainstem has been identified as the primary control center for the pharyngeal phase of swallowing, existing evidence suggests that the higher brain regions can contribute to controlling the pharyngeal phase of swallowing to match the motor response to the current context and task at hand. This suggests that the pharyngeal phase of swallowing cannot be exclusively reflexive or voluntary but can be regulated by the two neural controlling systems, goal-directed and non-goal-directed. This capability allows the pharyngeal phase of swallowing to adjust appropriately based on cognitive input, learned knowledge, and predictions. This paper reviews existing evidence and accordingly develops a novel perspective to explain these capabilities of the pharyngeal phase of swallowing. This paper aims (1) to integrate and comprehend the neurophysiological mechanisms involved in the pharyngeal phase of swallowing, (2) to explore the reflexive (non-goal-directed) and voluntary (goal-directed) neural systems of controlling the pharyngeal phase of swallowing, (3) to provide a clinical translation regarding the pathologies of these two systems, and (4) to highlight the existing gaps in this area that require attention in future research. This paper, in particular, aims to explore the complex neurophysiology of the pharyngeal phase of swallowing, as its breakdown can lead to serious consequences such as aspiration pneumonia or death.</p>","PeriodicalId":11508,"journal":{"name":"Dysphagia","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142399758","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Two researchers independently transcribed and coded interviews, elaborated a working analytical framework, indexed and charted the data, solving discrepancies through negotiated agreement and discussion with a third researcher. Proportion agreement on extracted quotations was calculated. Overall, 457 quotations were extracted from the interviews (88% agreement).

Concerning resources in OD management, most participants referred to problem-focused and meaning-focused coping strategies, personal capabilities, and support from family and healthcare services. Finally, almost half of the participants reported OD-related changes in life view and meaning.

With aging, changes occur in both central and peripheral structures, giving rise to presbyphagia, involving morphological and functional alterations in swallowing.

The primary objective of this research is to analyze the proposed definitions for the term \"presbyphagia\" in specialized literature and, secondarily, to assess how these definitions can influence the diagnosis of oropharyngeal dysphagia (OD). A systematic review was conducted to analyze the proposed definitions of presbyphagia and their impact on dysphagia diagnosis. Three main approaches to the definitions of presbyphagia were identified: (1) presbyphagia as an alteration in the swallowing process in healthy older adults, (2) presbyphagia as a swallowing disorder compensated by the physiological potential of healthy older adults, and (3) presbyphagia as a synonym for dysphagia. This study addresses the need for a clear definition of presbyphagia in older adults. It is concluded that presbyphagia should be understood as the etiology of OD rather than a compensated disorder or a synonym. This has significant implications for the diagnosis and treatment of swallowing disorders in the aging population.
