New scale could help turkish doctors spot swallowing trouble after stroke

NCT ID NCT07435441

First seen Mar 02, 2026

Summary

This study tested whether a Turkish version of the Bolus Residue Scale (BRS) is a reliable tool for measuring swallowing problems in people who recently had a stroke. Forty patients had a special X-ray video of their swallowing, and trained raters scored the results using the scale. The goal was to see if the scale gives consistent and accurate results, which could help doctors better assess and manage swallowing difficulties after a stroke.
