Gastroenterology Clinics of North America, 2009
Although the aging process per se can produce measurable changes in the normal oropharyngeal swallow, these changes alone are rarely sufficient to cause clinically apparent dysphagia. The causes of oropharyngeal dysphagia in the elderly are predominantly neuromyogenic, with the most common cause being stroke.

Treatment of oropharyngeal dysphagia
Current Treatment Options in Gastroenterology, 2003Substantial ignorance and controversy surround the management of neuromyogenic pharyngeal dysphagia. The major obstacle to confident recommendations is the lack of high-level evidence supporting most available therapies. There is reasonable evidence supporting cricopharyngeal disruption (myotomy or dilatation) in primary restrictive disorders of this ...

Oropharyngeal Dysphagia in the Elderly
Clinics in Geriatric Medicine, 1992Considerable evidence exists to suggest that normal aging alone does not cause significant impairment to the ability to swallow. Although there are changes in muscular tension, speed of responses, taste sensitivity, and smell, the physiology of swallowing remains relatively intact.

Current Treatment Options in Gastroenterology, 2000
Oropharyngeal dysphagia (OPD) develops when a large number of local and systemic causes lead to abnormal oropharyngeal bolus transport and/or compromise of airway safety. Only a minority of cases of OPD are amenable to curative therapy. Rehabilitation of swallowing function is the cornerstone of therapy for the overwhelming majority of ...

The American Journal of Digestive Diseases, 1975
The manometric and cineradiographic features of 14 patients with oropharyngeal dysphagia are described. Failure of the upper-esophageal sphincter (UES) to relax completely and incoordination of UES relaxation with pharyngeal contraction were noted as was poor initiation of swallows and disorganization of pharyngeal contraction.

Dementia with Oropharyngeal Dysphagia and Myopathy
Dysphagia, 2001A 72-year-old man was referred for geriatric evaluation with a view toward placement in institutional care. He presented originally to an internal medicine team with a six-month history of weight loss, constipation, generalized weakness, and apathy; investigations to rule out an underlying neoplasm were negative.

A Screening Procedure for Oropharyngeal Dysphagia
Dysphagia, 1999The present study was designed to examine the sensitivity and specificity of a 28-item screening test in identifying patients who aspirate, have an oral stage disorder, a pharyngeal delay, or a pharyngeal stage disorder. The screening test includes 28 items divided into 5 categories: (1) 4 medical history variables; (2) 6 behavioral variables; (3) 2 ...

Therapeutic intervention in oropharyngeal dysphagia
Nature Reviews Gastroenterology & Hepatology, 2016Oropharyngeal dysphagia is a frequent consequence of several medical aetiologies, and even considered part of the normal ageing process. Early and accurate identification provides the opportunity for early implementation of dysphagia treatments. This Review describes the current state of the evidence related to dysphagia therapies - focusing on ...

Manofluorography in the Evaluation of Oropharyngeal Dysphagia
Dysphagia, 2012Manofluorography, that is, the concurrent use of manometry and videofluorography for the evaluation of pharyngeal dysphagia, has not been widely used clinically, partially because of various limitations of conventional manometry. Technological advancements in recent years have led to substantial improvements in manometric devises, which can now ...
