Validity and Reliability of the Turkish Translation of the Yale Pharyngeal Residue Severity Rating Scale

Completed

• Conditions: Pharyngeal Dysphagia; Swallowing Disorder; Validation

• Registration Number: NCT04477174
• Lead Sponsor: Prof. Dr. Cemil Tascıoglu Education and Research Hospital Organization

Brief Summary

Purpose of the study is the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the Yale Pharyngeal Residue Severity Rating Scale (YPRSRS-T), so that it would be used as an assessment tool for dysphagia patients.

Detailed Description

The swallow function is a multidirectional process that depends on complex neuro-muscular network. The function can be evaluated using instrumental, such as fibreoptic endoscopic evaluation of swallowing (FEES), videofluoroscopy, or well structured scales. There are many questionnaire and scales for assessment of swallow but very few have been validated. The study will assess the construct validity and reliability of the Turkish version of Pharyngeal Residue Severity Rating Scale as known as Yale Pharyngeal Residue Severity Rating Scale.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Validation of Pharyngeal Residue Severity Rating Scale	2 months	To match between Fiberoptic Endoscopic Evaluation of Swallowing Images with Yale Pharyngeal Residue Severity Rating Scale Scores by health professionals. High match scores give high reliability, low match scores give low reliability. Match scores were compared and evaluated as statistically. High match score is better, low score is worse.
