Factors Contributing to Hydration, Fluid Intake and Health Status of Inpatients With and Without Dysphagia Post  Stroke
AbstractDysphagia has been strongly associated with poor hydration in acute stroke settings. However, in sub-acute settings, the contribution to dehydration of dysphagia in combination with other common stroke comorbidities has not been explored. The aim of this study was to investigate which demographic and stroke comorbidities, including dysphagia, contribute most significantly to oral fluid intake, hydration status and specific adverse health outcomes for patients in sub-acute rehabilitation following stroke. Data from 100 inpatients from three Australian rehabilitation facilities (14 with confirmed dysphagia and 86 wit...

Cortical and Subcortical Control of Swallowing-Can We Use Information From Lesion Locations to Improve Diagnosis and Treatment for Patients With Stroke?
Conclusions Stroke lesion locations have been identified that are commonly associated across patients with the occurrence and recovery of dysphagia, suggesting that clinical brain scans provide useful information for improving the diagnosis and treatment of patients with stroke. However, individual differences in brain structure and function limit the generalizability of these relationships and emphasize that the extent of the motor and sensory pathology in swallowing, and how the patient recovers, also depends on a patient's individual brain constitution. The involvement of the damaged brain tissue in swallowing control b...

Pneumonia risk factors in stroke patients
Conclusion: pneumonia was a prevalent complication in post-stroke patients at a Brazilian tertiary hospital. It was related to the patient ’ s older age and the severity of the cerebral event.RESUMO Objetivo: avaliar as caracter ísticas demográficas e clínicas associadas ao desenvolvimento de pneumonia em pacientes após acidente vascular encefálico internados em um hospital terciário do Vale do São Francisco que atende os estados de Pernambuco e Bahia, Brasil. Métodos: trata-se de estudo unicêntrico, observacional , analítico e transversal realizado a partir dos prontuários de pacientes com diagnóstico de aci...

The feasibility, usability and acceptability of a tablet-based aphasia therapy in the acute phase following stroke.
CONCLUSION: The aphasia exercise program in 'STAPP' is feasible to use as an additional rehabilitation tool along with standard of care in the acute phase post-stroke. Further research is needed to assess the efficacy. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION-URL: https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT03679637. PMID: 33418143 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Best Practice Recommendations for Stroke Patients with Dysphagia: A Delphi-Based Consensus Study of Experts in Turkey-Part I: Management, Diagnosis, and Follow-up
This study aimed to raise awareness and create a common opinion of medical specialists for stroke patients with dysphagia. This recommendation paper has been written by a multidisciplinary team and offers 45 recommendations for stroke patients with dysphagia. It was created using the eight-step Delphi round via e-mail. This study is mostly specific to Turkey. However, since it contains detailed recommendations from the perspective of various disciplines associated with stroke, this consensus-based recommendation paper is not only a useful guide to address clinical questions in practice for the clinical management of dyspha...

Impairment of speech auditory feedback error detection and motor correction in post-stroke aphasia
CONCLUSIONS: These findings provide evidence that left-hemisphere stroke is associated with impaired speech auditory feedback error processing, and such deficits account for specific aspects of language impairment in aphasia.PMID:34768093 | DOI:10.1016/j.jcomdis.2021.106163

Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Dysphagia and Associated Pneumonia in Patients With Stroke From India: A Call to Arms
CONCLUSIONS: Despite the high incidence of dysphagia and associated pneumonia, the methodological quality of studies is fair and there is little research focused on epidemiological data. We call to arms to those SLPs working with patients with stroke in India to become proactive in both clinical practice and research domains.

Masking care: A qualitative investigation of the impact of face masks on the experience of stroke rehabilitation from the perspective of staff and service users with communication difficulties
CONCLUSIONS & IMPLICATIONS: Findings shed light on how face masks can act as a barrier for pwCD within the rehabilitative process, and emphasize that each individual with communication difficulties is likely to be affected to a differing extent, as a result of multiple interacting factors. HPs are encouraged to consider the individual holistically, tailor strategies and adapt to each individual's needs. Further research is required to understand how to optimize rehabilitation outcomes when face masks are used.WHAT THIS PAPER ADDS: What is already known on the subject There is evidence face masks can affect speech discrimin...

Effect of Oral Apraxia on Dysphagia in Patients with Subacute Stroke
AbstractAim of this study was to investigate the effect of post-stroke oral apraxia on dysphagia in patients with subacute stroke. We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 130 supratentorial stroke patients from January 2015 to February 2021 who underwent a formal limb and oral apraxia test and videofluoroscopic swallowing study (VFSS), and we compared the patients in two groups: the apraxia and non-apraxia (oral apraxia score  >  45 and ≤ 45 points, respectively). All the patients participated in the standardized testing battery. The test variables were videofluoroscopic dysphagia scale (VDS), oral tr...

Effect of Capsaicin Atomization on Cough and Swallowing Function in Patients With Hemorrhagic Stroke: A Randomized Controlled Trial
CONCLUSIONS: Capsaicin nebulization can help enhance the number of coughs in response to capsaicin, reduce postswallow residue, and increase the level of SP in patients with hemorrhagic stroke and has a positive effect on pulmonary inflammation. This study provides intervention points for cough and swallowing rehabilitation after a hemorrhagic stroke.SUPPLEMENTAL MATERIAL: https://doi.org/10.23641/asha.21956903.PMID:36716393 | DOI:10.1044/2022_JSLHR-22-00296
