Patient suitability for free water protocols in acute stroke and general medicine: a qualitative study of clinician perceptions
CONCLUSIONS & IMPLICATIONS: Despite the benefits of FWPs in other settings, in acute stroke and general medicine, clinicians erred on the side of safety and, in most cases, would not implement an FWP. Future clinical research is needed to systematically design high-quality and feasible clinical trials to determine the benefits and safety of FWPs for patients with dysphagia in these settings. This would lay the foundations for guidelines to support the complex clinical decision-making regarding patient suitability for FWPs.WHAT THIS PAPER ADDS: What is already known on the subject FWPs are an alternate management strategy f...

The Impact of Nasogastric Feeding Tube on Physiologic Swallow in Head and Neck Cancer Patients: A Multidisciplinary Clinical Trial
Nasogastric feeding tubes (NGT) are ubiquitous within the head and neck (H&N) cancer patient population. NGT are often placed in post-surgical H&N cancer patients to allow for healing of suture lines in oral cavity and oropharyngeal free flap patients and are also used in transoral robotic surgery (TORS) patients. Despite their widespread use, the impact of NGT on the physiologic swallow of H&N cancer patients remains unknown. In the neurology literature, there is data demonstrating alterations in the functional swallow of elderly post-stroke patients with NGTs.

A novel nomogram to predict overall survival in head and neck cancer survivors with radiation-induced brain necrosis
CONCLUSION: In this LASSO-Cox model-based nomogram study, we developed and validated an easily applied model to predict overall survival in head and neck cancer survivors following an RN diagnosis.PMID:35121029 | DOI:10.1016/j.radonc.2022.01.033

Age-related composition changes in swallowing-related muscles: a Dixon MRI study
CONCLUSIONS: IMF is primarily associated with age-related composition changes in swallowing-related muscles, and it is commonly observed in the tongue and pharyngeal muscles. The geniohyoid muscle is more at risk of muscle atrophy rather than fatty infiltration. In addition, tongue pressure can be a parameter for the evaluation of swallowing-related muscle mass.PMID:33904143 | DOI:10.1007/s40520-021-01859-2

Revascularization approaches in patients with radiation-induced carotid stenosis: an updated systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSIONS: CAS and CEA appear to have a similar safety and efficacy profile in patients with radiation-induced carotid artery stenosis. Patients treated with CEA have a higher risk for periprocedural CN injuries. Future prospective studies are warranted to validate these results.PMID:33885270 | DOI:10.33963/KP.15956
