Yesterday PhD-student Jacinda Choy's systematic review on "Dosages of Swallowing Exercises in Stroke Rehabilitation: was published in Eur Arch ORL which included the analysis of 54 includes studies (28 randomised controlled trials, 8 non-randomised controlled trials, 12 pre/post studies, 3 retrospective case controls and 3 case studies.

Results showed inconsistent reporting of intervention dosage, with intensity the least consistently reported dosage component. While swallowing intervention was most commonly provided five times per week for four weeks, there was a wide breadth of type, frequency, intensity and duration of swallowing exercises reported. Dosage under-reporting and variation was particularly observed in “standard care” co-interventions or control groups. Results indicate the need for consistent and comprehensive dosage reporting in dysphagia studies, and for further research into evidence-based principles to optimise swallowing exercise dosages.
