“…The EAT-10 is rapidly self-administered and can be completed in <2 min [5]. Analogous results were observed among patients from acute care, long-term care, and primary care settings, that the EAT-10 is useful as a self-administered test, easy to understand for the majority (95.4%) of patients, quick to perform having a mean completion time of <4 min, and able to differentiate patients at risk for dysphagia from those with a normal swallow [6].…”

There is underdiagnosis and low awareness of dysphagia despite that the condition is modifiable and poorly managed symptoms diminish psychological well-being and overall quality of life. Frontline clinicians are in a unique position to be alert to the high prevalence of swallowing difficulty among elderly, evaluate and identify those who need intervention, and assure that individuals receive appropriate care. Proper diagnosis and treatment of oral-pharyngeal dysphagia involves a multidisciplinary healthcare team effort and starts with systematic screening of at-risk patients. The presence of a medical condition such as acute stroke, head and neck cancer, head trauma, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, pneumonia or bronchitis is adequate basis for predicting high risk. Systematic screening of dysphagia and resulting malnutrition among at-risk older adults is justified in an effort to avoid pneumonia and is recommended by clinical practice guidelines. Systematic screening with a validated method (e.g. the 10-item Eating Assessment Tool, EAT-10) as part of a comprehensive care protocol enables multidisciplinary teams to more effectively manage the condition, reduce the economic and societal burden, and improve patient quality of life. In fact, care settings with a systematic dysphagia screening program attain significantly better patient outcomes including reduced cases of pneumonia (by 55%) and reduced hospital length of stay.

“…The EAT‐10 and the SSQ were administered to all patients before and after the treatment . The EAT‐10 is a 10‐item screening questionnaire consisting of 10 questions with answers graded 0‐4 (0 = no problem, 4 = severe problem) on the symptoms, and clinical and social impact of oropharyngeal dysphagia.…”

“…One of the clinical screening methods is the Eating Assessment Tool (EAT-10) [12]. This is a self-administered questionnaire performed to evaluate dysphagia symptoms in people with a wide variety of causes and in different clinical settings [13]. This questionnaire was initially developed to measure the impact of dysphagia on quality of life but has been increasingly employed as a screening tool to determine if further work-up of dysphagia symptoms is warranted [14].…”

Objective: Oropharyngeal dysphagia (OD) is a common but underdiagnosed syndrome among older adults. The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of OD in hospitalized older adults by using ten-item Eating Assessment Tool (EAT-10) and the relationship between mortality and OD. Patients and Methods:Patients aged over 65 years admitted to an internal medicine inpatient clinic of a university hospital in Turkey were enrolled in the study. The number of drugs, the number of chronic diseases, routes of feeding (oral, parenteral, or both), length of hospital stay, albumin levels on admission day, and mortality status of the patients were recorded by a physician. The EAT-10 questionnaire was administered to all patients for OD. Results:One hundred and thirty-six patients (54.4% female) were enrolled in the study. Their mean age was 74.6±6.6 years. The prevalence of OD in hospitalized older adults was 23%. The mortality rates were significantly higher in the dysphagic subjects as compared to the non-dysphagic ones (25.8% vs.10.5%; p=0.041). The number of patients with malignancy was significantly higher in the dysphagic group as compared to the non-OD subjects (41.9% vs.20%; p=0.018). Conclusion:OD is a geriatric syndrome and should be screened and treated in all geriatric patients in hospitals. It will improve patient outcomes and quality of life. Hastalar ve Yöntem:İstanbul'da bir üniversite hastanesi iç hastalıkları servisine başvuran 65 yaş üstü hastalar çalışmaya dahil edildi. Hastaların kullandığı ilaç sayısı, kronik hastalıkların sayısı, beslenme yolları (oral, parenteral veya her ikisi), hastanede kalış süresi, başvuru günündeki albümin düzeyleri ve çıkış mortalite durumu ilgili hekim tarafından kaydedildi. OD'yi taramak için EAT-10 anketi tüm hastalara uygulandı. Bulgular:Yüz otuz altı hasta (% 54,4 kadın) çalışmaya alındı. Yaş ortalaması 74,6 ± 6,6 yıl idi. Hastanede yatan yaşlı erişkinlerde OD prevalansı % 23 idi. Mortalite oranları disfajik olan hastalarda olmayanlara kıyasla anlamlı derecede yüksek bulundu (% 25,8 vs % 10,5; p=0.041). Malignite tanısı olan hastaların sayısı disfajik grupta anlamlı derecede yüksek bulundu (% 41,9 vs % 20; p=0.018).Sonuç: OD geriatrik bir sendromdur. Özellikle hastanede yatan tüm yaşlı hastalarda taranmalı ve tedavi edilmelidir. Bu yaklaşım hastaların durumunu ve yaşam kalitelerini arttıracaktır.
