Background: Dysphagia refers to an abnormality in the process of transporting food from the mouth to the stomach. Patients with dysphagia have a high risk of airway aspiration, which can often lead to fatal complications such as pneumonia and asphyxia. Recently, interest in the clinical importance of dysphagia has increased in the medical community and society at large. Current Concepts: Dysphagia can be caused by neurological diseases such as stroke and brain injury, or by non-neurological diseases such as head and neck cancer or diverticulum. Diagnosis is mainly performed using videofluoroscopic swallowing study or endoscopic evaluation of swallowing based on a detailed history and physical examination, scintigraphy or esophageal manometry may also be helpful. Recently developed imaging technology using 3-dimensional computed tomography and dynamic magnetic resonance imaging has been implemented. Treatment of dysphagia can be divided into compensatory and facilitative rehabilitation techniques. The most important principle for successful treatment of dysphagia is that it should be performed with a multidisciplinary team approach. Discussion and Conclusion: Dysphagia is an important problem that can seriously impair the patients’ quality of life. Although the general public and medical professionals are interested in dysphagia, many unknown aspects exist regarding the mechanism of dysphagia, and few treatments have been sufficiently proven in terms of safety and effectiveness. Therefore, much attention and effort is still required.

Dysphagia is characterized by abnormality in the transfer of a bolus from the mouth to the stomach. It can occur as a result of a variety of structural injury and/or medical conditions including natural aging. Dysphagia may arise as comorbidities of other disorders or as precursors to more significant diseases and disorders. The prevalence of swallowing disorders may vary depending on the type of diagnostic evaluation. This article reviews the current epidemiologic data of dysphagia.

Objective To translate the English version of the Pain Disability Questionnaire (PDQ) into Korean and to investigate the reliability and validity of the Korean version of the PDQ (K-PDQ) in patients suffering chronic disabling musculoskeletal disorders (CDMDs).Methods The English version of the PDQ was translated into Korean. Ten patients with CDMDs were randomly selected for a pilot study to assess the comprehensibility of the pre-final version. One hundred and thirty-nine patients suffering from CDMDs for more than 3 months were enrolled in this study. Follow-up questionnaires were obtained to examine the test-retest reliability. Concurrent validity was evaluated by comparing the K-PDQ with the visual analogue scale (VAS). Construct validity was evaluated by comparing the K-PDQ with the brief form of the World Health Organization quality of life assessment instrument (WHOQOL-BREF) using Pearson correlation coefficient. Reliability was assessed using the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC), and internal consistency was determined by Cronbach’s alpha.Results Test-retest reliability was assessed in 70 patients, with an average time interval of 12 days. The ICC was 0.958 (p<0.001). Internal consistency reached Cronbach’s alpha of 0.933 for the functional component and 0.870 for the psychosocial component. The correlation coefficient for the K-PDQ when compared with the VAS was 0.834 in the first assessment and 0.831 in the second assessment. All domains of the WHOQOL-BREF showed a significant negative correlation with the K-PDQ. Conclusion The K-PDQ is a reliable and valid instrument for measuring disability and can be used to assess disability and treatment outcomes in Korean patients with CDMD.
Dysphagia in Tongue Cancer Patients
손유리,최경효,김태근 대한재활의학회 2015 Annals of Rehabilitation Medicine Vol.39 No.2
Objective To identify risk factors for dysphagia in tongue cancer patients. Dysphagia is a common complication of surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy in tongue cancer patients. Previous studies have attempted to identify risk factors for dysphagia in patients with head and neck cancer, but no studies have focused specifically on tongue cancer patients. Methods This study was conducted on 133 patients who were diagnosed with tongue cancer and who underwent a videofluoroscopy swallowing study (VFSS) between January 2007 and June 2012 at the Asan Medical Center. Data collected from the VFSS were analyzed retrospectively. Patients with aspiration were identified. Results Patients showed a higher incidence of inadequate tongue control, inadequate chewing, delayed oral transit time, aspiration or penetration, vallecular pouch and pyriform residue, and inadequate laryngeal elevation after surgery. Moreover, male gender, extensive tumor resection, a higher node stage, and more extensive lymph node dissection were major risk factors for aspiration in tongue cancer patients. Conclusion Tongue cancer patients have difficulties in the pharyngeal phase as well as the oral phase of swallowing. These difficulties can worsen after tongue cancer surgery. Gender, the extent of tumor resection, and lymph node metastasis affect swallowing in tongue cancer patients. Physicians should take these risk factors into account when administering swallowing therapy to tongue cancer patients.
