RESUMEN

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Stroke-associated pneumonia (SAP) affects 10 to 38% of patients in the acute phase of stroke. Stroke patients diagnosed with dysphagia have an 11-fold higher risk of developing SAP. Thus, identifying dysphagic patients through a highly accurate screening tool might be crucial in reducing the incidence of SAP. We present a case-control study designed to evaluate efficacy in reducing the risk of SAP between two swallowing screening tools, the classic water swallow test (WST) and a recently validated tool such as the GLOBE-3S (the Sapienza GLObal Bedside Evaluation of Swallowing after Stroke), which is a highly sensitive swallowing screening tool particularly accurate in detecting silent aspiration as well. METHODS: We analyzed the occurrence of dysphagia in 100 acute stroke patients distributed in two groups: half were screened with WST and the other half with GLOBE-3S. RESULTS: Dysphagia was diagnosed in 28 patients. The main result is that, among patients who passed the dysphagia screenings, none of those screened with the GLOBE-3S method developed pneumonia compared to 31.82% in the WST group. Discriminant function analysis (DFA) showed that NIH Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score and the dysphagia screening method (i.e., GLOBE-3S vs. WST) were the two main factors in the SAP's predicting model and the only significant ones per se. CONCLUSIONS: The new GLOBE-3S screening test can reduce the risk of SAP compared to WST.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Dysphagia occurs in up to 50% of all patients with acute stroke. There is debate regarding which is the most effective screening tool in identifying aspiration in patients with acute stroke. We assessed the accuracy of the Sapienza Global Bedside Evaluation of Swallowing after Stroke (GLOBE-3S), which combines the Toronto Bedside Swallowing Screening Test (TOR-BSST©) with oxygen desaturation and laryngeal elevation measurement during swallowing. METHODS: We prospectively enrolled consecutive patients with stroke within 72 h of symptom onset. All patients with stroke firstly underwent a standard neurological examination, then the GLOBE-3S evaluation and finally the fiberoptic endoscopic evaluation of swallowing (FEES). Two different assessors, a neurologist and a speech pathologist, blind to both the clinical data and each other's evaluation, administered the GLOBE-3S and FEES examination. We assessed the accuracy of the GLOBE-3S in detecting post-stroke swallow impairment with aspiration using the FEES as the standard. RESULTS: We enrolled 50 patients with acute stroke, 28 of whom (56%) had swallowing impairment with aspiration at FEES evaluation. A total of 33 patients (66%) failed the GLOBE-3S evaluation. The GLOBE-3S reached a sensitivity of 100% and a specificity of 77.3% (negative predictive value, 100%; positive likelihood ratio, 4.34). The median time required for the GLOBE-3S to be performed was 297 s. CONCLUSIONS: GLOBE-3S is quick to perform at the bedside and can accurately identify aspiration in patients with acute stroke. By including the measurement of laryngeal elevation and monitoring of oxygen desaturation, it could represent a highly sensitive instrument to avoid the misdiagnosis of silent aspirators.
