Abstract

The need for globally recognized terminology for dysphagia diet has been continuously proposed. Established in 2012, the International Dysphagia Diet Standardization Initiative (IDDSI) Board developed a framework for the dysphagia diet that can commonly be applied in clinical settings and by the caregivers, for all age groups, patients, food industry partners, and bridging all ethnicities. The application of common expressions will ensure patient safety during transfer between medical institutions, by reducing the confusion resulting from diverse terminologies used, and by minimizing unnecessary re-testing. This review introduces the recently updated IDDSI, and discusses and describes the test methods for each level.
