Abstract
Swallowing disorders are common in critically ill patients. In the Intensive Care Unit they can occur after orotracheal extubation, in patients with a tracheostomy tube, as well as in those without an artificial airway, due to the clinical fragility and/or comorbidities that characterize this patient population. Dysphagia is associated with unfavorable clinical consequences such as malnutrition, dehydration, increased length of stay in the intensive care unit and hospital, worsening quality of life and increased morbidity and mortality, leading to an increased health costs.
In this way, a group of kinesiologists experts in swallowing disorders and dysphagia prepared this document with the aim of describing the skills and role of kinesiology in this area of the profession; promoting evaluation and treatment strategies, as well as the importance of early detection of swallowing disorders in at-risk populations, through specific tests for dysphagia screening, in order to avoid or prevent future complications.
