Effect of a gum‐based thickener on the safety of swallowing in patients with poststroke oropharyngeal dysphagia
Abstract
Background Increasing viscosity with thickening agents is a valid therapeutic strategy for oropharyngeal dysphagia (OD). To assess the therapeutic effect of a xanthan gum-based thickener (Nutilis Clear®) at six viscosities compared with thin liquid in poststroke OD (PSOD) patients. Methods A total of 120 patients with PSOD were studied in this controlled, multiple-dose, fixed-order, and single-blind study using videofluoroscopy (VFSS). A series...
