Relationship Between Laryngeal Sensory Deficits, Aspiration, and Pneumonia in Patients with Dysphagia.

Abstract:

:The laryngeal adductor reflex (LAR) is an airway protective reflex that manifests as a brief vocal fold closure in response to laryngeal stimulation. This study examined if the absence of the LAR in response to touch delivered by a laryngoscope is associated with penetration/aspiration or pneumonia in patients with dysphagia. Inpatients at a teaching hospital with clinical symptoms of dysphagia were recruited upon referral to the otolaryngology clinic for a swallowing evaluation. Otolaryngologists observed the status of secretions and touched each arytenoid with the tip of the laryngoscope. The patients were then asked to swallow 3-5 mL grape gelatin and 3-5 mL colored water. All procedures were video-recorded. Two independent raters noted absence/presence of the LAR and penetration/aspiration of pharyngeal secretions, gelatin, and water on the recorded videos. A diagnosis of pneumonia during the patient's entire hospital stay was determined by a review of the hospital's medical records. Statistical analyses were performed using Fisher's exact test. Sixty-one patients were included. Twenty-one patients (34.5%) did not exhibit the LAR. No association was found between the absent LAR and penetration or aspiration. There was, however, a significant association between an absence of the LAR and pneumonia development. Patients with an absent LAR had 6.8 times the odds of developing pneumonia as compared to those with a present LAR (OR 6.75; 95% CI 1.76-25.96; p < 0.01). Using the LAR as a marker of laryngeal sensory function appears to be valuable for identifying patients at high risk of pneumonia.

  • Effect of aging on the deglutitive oral, pharyngeal, and esophageal motor function.

    abstract::Aging affects some members of the swallowing orchestra and spares the others. It seems that changes in the pharynx of the elderly are more of a positive nature than a negative one and reflect an adaptation to age-induced structural changes of the upper esophageal sphincter.
