Even before the recent development of biological agents, a long list of effective treatments has been available for patients with psoriasis. Topical therapies such as corticosteroids, vitamin D analogues, and retinoids are used for localised disease. Phototherapy including broadband ultraviolet B (UVB), narrowband UVB, PUVA, and climatotherapy are effective for more extensive disease. Systemic ...
Abstract Background A significant portion of critically ill patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) are at high risk developing intensive care unit (ICU)-acquired swallowing dysfunction (neurogenic dysphagia) as a consequence requiring prolonged mechanical ventilation. Pharyngeal electrical stimulation (PES) is simple and safe treatment for neurogenic dysphagia. It has been shown that...

Introduction: Dysphagia after cerebrovascular accidents can lead to various complications such as pneumonia and patient mortality. Evaluation of dysphagia in these patients by nurses is very important and nurses need to have dysphagia screening knowledge and performance in this area.

Dysphagia is commonly seen in patients undergoing radiation-based therapy for locally advanced squamous carcinoma of the head and neck. Within 4 to 5 weeks of starting therapy, patients develop mucositis, radiation dermatitis, and edema of the soft tissues. Resulting pain, copious mucous production, xerostomia, and tissue swelling contribute to acute dysphagia. As the acute effects resolve, lat...
12 patients with malignant inoperable esophageal obstruction (carcinoma of the esophagus n = 7, carcinoma of the esophagogastric junction n = 3, mediastinal lymph node metastasis n = 2) and high-grade dysphagia were treated with self-expanding metal stents (Ultraflex, Microvasive) made of a nickel titanium alloy (Elastalloy). Other forms of palliation had failed in 9/12 patients. The degree of ...
Oropharyngeal dysphagia (OD) is a highly prevalent and growing condition in the older population. Although OD may cause very severe complications, it is often not detected, explored, and treated. Older patients are frequently unaware of their swallowing dysfunction which is one of the reasons why the consequences of OD, ie, aspiration, dehydration, and malnutrition, are regularly not attributed...
Background: Dysphagia is one of the major post-stroke complications that can severely damage patient's quality life and even endangers patients’ lives. Shaker exercise indirect methods, behavioral swallowing techniques, may increase speed sensitivity. The aim study was to evaluate effect Shaker exercise on dysphagia level among patients with cerebral vascular stroke. Study design: A quasi-...
