Abstract:The risk categories in the guidelines are valid to assist early identification of swallowing and nutritional risk and guide decision-making on proactive gastrostomy tube insertion.
“…weeks, or no feeding tube, AND lost ≥10% body weight These outcome definitions are described fully elsewhere when they were used to originally validate the S&N Guidelines (Brown et al, 2013b), and are deemed to confirm the prediction that the patient required a proactive gastrostomy as per the S&N Guidelines.…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
