NCT ID:
NCT07098767
Brief Summary:
This study aims to explore the reliability of using ultrasonography (US) for the assessment of swallowing function in patients with dysphagia. The study will recruit 80 patients and compare the findings with those obtained from fiberoptic endoscopic evaluation of swallowing (FEES), which serves as the gold standard.
Detailed Description:
This study will evaluate the reliability of using ultrasonography as a non-invasive tool for assessing swallowing function in patients with dysphagia. Participants will undergo US and FEES assessments to examine vocal cord function, swallowing reflex, pharyngeal contraction, aspiration/penetration, and stasis. The reliability, diagnostic accuracy, and inter-/intra-rater reliability will be analyzed to validate US as an effective alternative in clinical dysphagia assessment.
