Swallis DSA™
Get access to dysphagia expertise.
Everywhere. All the time.
Dysphagia
Dysphagia, or swallowing disorder, is particularly difficult to detect and affects up to 75% of stroke patients, as well as patients with Parkinson's disease, ALS, and half of the patients hospitalised following Covid19.
The main complications are respiratory infections and malnutrition, which can worsen and lead to pneumonia and death.
Access to swallowing expertise is difficult due to medical deserts and organizational complexities such as patient travel from their institution to the expert' s office and hospital evaluation centers.
Yet early detection and treatment reduces the complications, duration and number of hospitalisations, as well as the use of medications such as antibiotics and industrial textured foods.
All these factors lowering the mortality rate.
