BJH-SDS Validation of the German Translation

NCT06497790 · Status: RECRUITING · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 570

Last updated 2024-07-12

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The first object of the study is the validation of a translation of the Barnes-Jewish Hospital Stroke Dysphagia Screen with determination of sensitivity, specificity, interrater reliability (especially between different professional groups) and criterion validity.

If the German translation proves to be suitable, it will also be validated on general neurological patients, i.e. patients on a neurological ward without a stroke.

Conditions

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

BJH-SDS Screenint Test

The test includes the assessment of a sufficient level of consciousness (Glasgow Coma Scale over 13 points), a check for facial paresis, soft palate paresis and tongue paresis followed by a water swallow test with 90 ml of water if the previous points are assessed as normal. The water swallow test checks for signs of aspiration (throat clearing, coughing or a change in voice quality)

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Flexible Endoscopic Evaluation of Swallowing

The FEES evaluates anatomical changes, functional disorders of the visible structures (e.g. recurrent paresis), saliva management, penetration and aspiration of food boluses in order to draw conclusions about the underlying pathomechanism of dysphagia. It is an established standard diagnostic procedure for stroke patients and, in addition to the diagnosis of dysphagia, also enables pathomechanism-guided therapy by speech therapists
