Summary
This study tested a device called the Dysphagia Detection System (DDS) to see if it could accurately detect swallowing problems in people with conditions like stroke, Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's, or dementia. The device was compared to a standard X-ray test. The study was stopped early because the device did not perform well enough to meet the study's goals.
