“…In the cases under discussion, there was no complete correspondence between swallowing functionality and the swallowing quality of life index, and this observation differed from studies on swallowing quality of life, with participants suffering from dysphagia due to non-degenerative diseases (12,13) .…”

This study aims to discuss Speech-language pathology (SLP) therapy intervention in dysphagia with a focus on palliative care and quality of life. It is a case study conducted with four participants with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis undergoing SLP therapy outpatient follow-up. The Swallowing Quality of Life Questionnaire (SWAL-QOL) and a structured interview were applied to the participants, who also underwent Videofluoroscopic Swallowing Study (VFSS). Participants were classified according to the Functional Oral Intake Scale (FOIS), the Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Severity Scale, translated and culturally adapted to Brazilian Portuguese (ALSSS), and the Dysphagia Outcome Severity Scale (DOSS). Four patients showed interest in maintaining oral food intake, even if minimal, in the event of tube feeding. Regarding severity of dysphagia, observed in the SVF, the participants presented DOSS classification ranging from functional deglutition to mild-to-moderate dysphagia. The impact on swallowing quality of life was between discrete and severe. Not all participants presented correlation between severity of dysphagia and SWAL-QOL level of impairment, with impact on the quality of life observed even in cases of mild dysphagia severity. Participants reported that they would feel uncomfortable in the event of exclusive tube feeding, and that the oral intake of food, even if minimal only for the pleasure of eating, would have a direct or indirect impact on their quality of life.

“…Various tools exist to guide this exploration, as evidenced by a systematic review to assess the most effective tools . Specific tools are available to assess QoL, including the swallowing QoL questionnaire, or SWAL‐QOL, for assessing QoL in stroke patients with dysphagia, validated through studies in multiple countries …”

“…In assessing the impact of OI vs NOI for 79 patients diagnosed with stroke and dysphagia, a significant association was noted between swallowing function (those with OI) and QoL. This suggested that as swallowing function improves, so does QoL, as this is satisfying a basic human need on Maslow's hierarchy of needs …”

Dysphagia: Interprofessional Management, Impact, and Patient‐Centered Care

Dysphagia affects a multitude of people worldwide with tremendous impact on the affected individual, families, and caregivers. Understanding dysphagia, as well as the status of screening, evaluation, and treatment, aids in the knowledge required by a interprofessional team to holistically care for patients with dysphagia and their caregivers. The impact of dysphagia includes potential associated risk and a cascade of effects. Conversations regarding meeting nutrition and fluid needs with consideration for quality of life need to be integrated into the plan of care for individuals with dysphagia.

Improving Swallowing Function and Ability in Post Stroke Dysphagia: A Randomized Clinical Trial

Post-stroke dysphagia is a prevalent, life threatening condition. Scientists recommended implementing behavioral therapies with new technologies such as transcranial direct current of stimulation (TDCS). Studies showed promising TDCS effects, and scientists suggested the investigation of the effectiveness of different montages. Supramarginal gyrus (SMG) is important in swallowing function. Our study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of stimulating SMG in improving post-stroke dysphagia. Forty-four patients finished the study (a randomized, double-blind one). All of them received behavioral therapy. The real group received anodal (2 mA, 20 min) stimulation on the intact SMG, and the sham group received the same for 30 s (5 sessions). Patients were assessed with Functional Oral Intake Scale (FOIS) and Mann Assessment of Swallowing Ability (MASA) after treatment and at one-month follow-up. The results showed that the difference between groups at baseline was not significant. According to MASA both groups improved significantly during the time ( p -value < 0.001). The improvement in the real group was significantly higher than in the sham group after treatment ( p -value = 0.002) and after one-month follow-up ( p -value < 0.001). According to FOIS, most of the patients in the real group (72.70%) reached level 6 or 7 after one-month follow-up which was significantly higher than the sham group (31.80%, p -value = 0.007). In conclusion, TDCS applied to the scalp's surface associated with SMG localization may improve swallowing function in the stroke patients with dysphagia.
