Objectives: characterize, in a sociodemographic and clinical perspective, pacients who underwent videoendoscopy of swallowing and had oropharyngeal dysphagia during their hospital stay. Furthermore, it is also intended to find strategies to improve the quality of the response to pacientes in need of videoendoscopy of swallowing.
Case study: this study is based on a sample collected in Centro Hospitalar Universitário Santo António, between january 2019 and september 2021, including.
Materials and Methods: the clinical data and image studies from 157 pacients were retrospectively analyzed. After careful selection, all cases that did not meet the inclusion criteria were excluded from the study. Thus, 143 patients were selected for analysis.
Results and conclusions: this study identifies determining factors of FOIS level variability, detecting severe patients in a preliminary, pre-VED phase, reducing waiting time by over 70%, and consequently improving service quality in all its dimensions.
