Abstract

Dysphagia is known as the difficulty or disability when it comes to eating food, which is analyzed from different points since it can be generated by anatomical factors, be they birth or acquired, psychological or functional causes. The professional work in dysphagia allows classifying the severity of dysphagia, but not the qualification of the risk of the different functional errors during ingestion. For this reason, this paper proposes to classify the level of risk due to functional swallowing errors.


The research was proposed from a prospective nature with a validity relationship, through the Delphi method, through which a list of functional swallowing errors was postulated to be validated by 6 expert judges in the area. A proposal was made in a matrix, which evaluated the different functional errors divided into the swallowing phases and the risk levels to affect dysphagia, according to the items of sufficiency, relevance, coherence and clarity. A list of 38 validated errors was obtained, which are based on risk, since when they materialize, they promote a greater probability of penetration / aspiration of food into the airway in the glutory sequence. The consensus on the classification of these errors according to risk will be a useful tool for professionals in the area. A list of risks due to functional swallowing errors is concluded through Fisher's least significant difference (LSD) for means, in descending order according to the severity of the risk represented by the error in intake.
