| Core Tip |
Predicting successful oral intake in elderly patients with dysphagia remains a challenge. The scoring method for endoscopic swallowing evaluation was based on final score (from 0 to 12) using four parameters; (1) the salivary pooling in the vallecula and piriform sinuses; (2) the response of glottal closure reflex induced by touching the epiglottis with the endo-scope; (3) the location of the bolus at the time of swallow onset assessed by “white-out” after the swall-owing of test jelly; and (4) the extent of pharyngeal clearance after test jelly is swallowed. A total score of 7 or less during endoscopic swallowing evaluation reliably predicted the ability to eat pureed diets.
