Abstract

Purpose: To investigate the association between the clinical evaluation and self-perception of deglutition with the motor disability scale in patients with Multiple Sclerosis. Methods: It is a cross-sectional, prospective study that was conducted with individuals with Multiple Sclerosis treated by the Neuroimmunology outpatient clinic of a hospital in southern Brazil. We reviewed the electronic medical records of patients to extract the score from the last Expanded Disability Status Scale. After the analysis of the inclusion criteria, and in clinical consultation, two protocols were applied: one of self-perception for the risk of dysphagia, through the Brazilian equivalence instrument of the Eating Assessment Tool; and the clinical evaluation of swallowing, with food, through the scale Gugging Swallowing Screen. The data were analyzed through tables, descriptive statistics and the tests: Fisher’s Exact Association Test and Chi-square Test to assess the association between the results of the applied scales. We considered a maximum significance level of 5% (p <0.05). Results: It was possible to observe that there was a significant association between the scores of the Gugging Swallowing Screen scales with the Expanded Disability Status Scale of the patients. In addition, there was also a relation between the results of both protocols with the Expanded Disability Status Scale. Conclusion: The patients with Multiple Sclerosis in this study presented oropharyngeal dysphagia, what was confirmed by the association between the clinical evaluation of swallowing and the results of the instrument of self-perception of swallowing and the motor disability scale.

Resumo

Objetivo: Investigar a associação entre a avaliação clínica e autopercepção da deglutição com a escala de incapacidade motora em pacientes com Esclerose Múltipla. Método: Estudo transversal, prospectivo realizado com indivíduos com Esclerose Múltipla atendidos pelo ambulatório de Neuroimunologia de um hospital do sul do Brasil. Realizamos a revisão dos prontuários eletrônicos dos pacientes para extração do escore da última Expanded Disability Status Scale. Após a análise dos critérios de inclusão, e em consulta clínica, foram aplicados dois protocolos, o de autopercepção para o risco de disfagia, através do instrumento de equivalência brasileira do Eating Assessment Tool e a avaliação clínica da deglutição, com alimentos, através da escala Gugging Swallowing Screen. Os dados foram analisados através de tabelas, estatísticas descritivas e pelos testes: Teste de Associação Exato de Fisher e Teste Qui-quadrado para avaliar a associação entre os resultados das escalas aplicadas. Consideramos um nível de significância máximo de 5% (p<0,05). Resultados: Foi possível observar que houve associação significativa entre os escores das escalas Gugging Swallowing Screen com a Expanded Disability Status Scale dos pacientes. Além disso, também se observou relação entre os resultados de ambos protocolos com a Expanded Disability Status Scale. Conclusão: Os pacientes com Esclerose Múltipla deste estudo apresentaram disfagia orofaríngea. Houve associação entre os achados da avaliação clínica, do instrumento de autopercepção da deglutição e da escala de incapacidade motora em pacientes com esclerose múltipla.
