NCT ID NCT07250113

First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests a website tool called WeCareToFeedDysphagia to see if it reduces stress and burden for people caring for older adults with Alzheimer's disease or related dementias who also have trouble swallowing. About 800 caregivers will be split into two groups: one gets access to the tool plus text reminders, the other gets only standard contact info for a swallowing expert. All participants fill out online surveys at the start, one month, and three months after the patient leaves the hospital.
