Abstract
Dysphagia can interfere with quality of life (QOL) in several aspects. The broad goal of this study was to carry out a review of questionnaires assessing oropharyngeal dysphagia-related QOL that were used in both patients with neurological and oncological disorders. The specific goals were: 1) to evaluate the utility for clinical practice in terms of: readability, number of items, domains and sub-domains, type of scale, scoring procedures, cut-off point, burden (time to complete the questionnaire), administration mode, and adaptation into other languages; 2) to describe the populations in which the questionnaires were used. The literature search was carried out using the electronic databases PUBMED, SCOPUS, and SCIELO. All available papers up to June 2015 were included. The studies were chosen according to selected MESH terms, and from those published in English, French, Spanish, and Portuguese. Of the available publications, 136 studies were included, and they used five questionnaires: SWAL-QOL, Deglutition Handicap Index, Dysphagia Handicap Index, EAT-10, and MDADI. These data are a comprehensive resource that provides researchers and clinicians with clinical information about the use of five questionnaires, which are specific for the assessment of oropharyngeal dysphagia-related quality of life.Downloads
