OLIVEIRA, Isabel de Jesus; COUTO, Germano Rodrigues  y  MOTA, Liliana Andreia Neves da. Nursing therapies in the person with post-stroke dysphagia. Rev. Enf. Ref. [online]. 2019, vol.serIV, n.23, pp.133-140. ISSN 0874-0283.  https://doi.org/10.12707/RIV19057.

Background: Dysphagia is one of the complications of stroke, with a severe impact on the person's capacity to recover autonomy, and severe respiratory, nutritional, and psychological complications. Objective: To identify the foci/diagnoses and interventions, documented by nurses, in response to the care needs of the person with post-stroke dysphagia. Methodology: An exploratory, descriptive, and retrospective study was conducted in an inpatient service of a rehabilitation center, using descriptive statistical analysis in nursing documentation between January and May 2019. Results: The diagnoses most frequently documented are related to self-care (53.9%), and the most documented interventions are of the observing type (49.2%). Documentation of swallowing-related diagnoses and interventions is scarce. Conclusion: There are interventions directed at this focus in nursing care to the person with post-stroke dysphagia, regardless of the documented diagnoses. The results suggest that, although they constitute a focus of attention in nursing practice, their documentation is limited.
