 It has been suggested that assessing dysphagia appropriately may improve the quality of life for patients with brain infarctions and at the same time prevent them developing pneumonia. This study is one of the first to develop an objective quantitative analysis of dysphagia. Between August 1, 2014, and July 31, 2016, we performed videofluoroscopic assessments of oral stage delays (oral transit time: OTT) and pharyngeal stage delays (laryngeal elevation delay time: LEDT) in the swallowing performance of one group of 22 patients who experienced a brain infarction for the first time, and another group of healthy controls. We found that the patients had significantly longer LEDT than controls, but the two groups did not differ significantly in OTT. Our results suggest that LEDT may be a useful indicator of pharyngeal stage delays in patients recovering from dysphagia and may be important for planning their swallowing rehabilitation.
