Abstract

Objectives: To evaluate swallowing disorders of patients after cerebral and some consequences of swallowing disorders. Subjects and methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study performed the assessment of swallowing disorders by the GUSS test, assessing the consequences of swallowing disorders during hospital stay, including: aspiration, pneumonia, intubation. nasogastric tube and length of hospital stay. Research results: The proportion of patients without swallowing disorder was 37.69%; 62.31% had dysphagia; in which: 35.38% mild, 23.08% moderate, 3.85% severe. The proportion of patients experiencing the following consequences of swallowing disorder is: Aspiration 12.31%; pneumonia 5.38%; put gastric tube 12.31%. Patients with aspiration status had a higher incidence of pneumonia 9.67 times (p = 0.002) and patients with a nasogastric tube had a higher incidence of pneumonia 6.34 times (p = 0.011).
