Overview

Retrospective analysis examines dysphagia subtypes associations with feeding management in adults, suggesting individualized care approaches.

Key Points

  • This study aimed to characterize dysphagia subtypes by analyzing the relationships among medical backgrounds, swallowing impairments, and feeding strategies.
  • Retrospective analysis of clinical records from 122 adult patients referred for dysphagia management between 2018-2023.
  • Medical histories, dysphagia characteristics, and feeding methods were extracted and analyzed.
  • Fisher’s exact tests, chi-square tests, and logistic regression were used to assess associations among variables.
  • Significant associations were found between medical history and dysphagia classification (p < 0.001).
  • Esophageal dysphagia was linked to gastrointestinal disorders while oropharyngeal dysphagia was associated with neurological conditions.
  • Patients with oropharyngeal dysphagia had higher odds of receiving tube feeding compared to those with esophageal dysphagia (OR = 3.506, p = 0.003).
