Dysphagia places a substantial burden on the critically ill, affecting 12%-84% of this cohort, and is independently associated with worse outcomes. Pharyngeal electrical stimulation (PES-treatment) is a novel dysphagia therapy with an emerging evidence base. This retrospective observational study describes our dysphagia service and reports the use of PES-treatment as a standard of care in recovering critically ill patients at a single-site tertiary UK hospital.
