Abstract
- We evaluated and investigated the short-term (one-week) prognosis of dysphagia and its clinical predictors in 46 ischemic brain stroke(IBS) pteients with dysphagia. Patients were divided into improving or non-improving group. Between the two groups. We compared and analyzed such clinical characteristics in IBS patients with dysphagia as age, sex, site and location of IBS, cranial nervous system deficits other than dysphagia. Dysphagia severity and Canadian Neurological Scale score. The results are as follow: 1. At one week after admission, 27 patients(58.7%) showed improving course and 23 patierits (50%) returned to nomral. 2. All the clinical characteristics e-aluated did not reveal any significance in predicting the prognosis of dysphagia in IBS patients.
