ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: The cause of oropharyngeal dysphagia in patients with
coronavirus disease (COVID-19) can be multifactorial and may underly limitations in …

Objective The aims of this study was to analyse fibreoptic endoscopic evaluation of
swallowing (FEES) findings in tube-fed patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) …

Objective To assess the incidence and the risk factors for the development of dysphagia in
patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) undergoing orotracheal intubation …

Purpose Patients affected by COVID-19 are assumed to be at high risk of developing
swallowing disorders. However, to our best knowledge, data on the characteristics and …

The purpose of this research was to identify risk factors that were independently related to
the maintenance of a swallowing dysfunction in patients affected by critical COVID-19. We …

Background: COVID-19 is a multisystem disease complicated by respiratory failure requiring
sustanined mechanical ventilation (MV). Prolongued oro-tracheal intubation is associated to …

Purpose We investigated the incidence of dysphagia, its time course, and its association
with clinically relevant outcomes in extubated critically ill patients with COVID-19. Our results …
