Dysphagia is defined as the difficulty or impossibility to swallow liquids, food or medication and can occur during the oropharyngeal or the esophageal phase of swallowing. In older population, dysphagia has a significant impact on deglutition efficacy and safety. Impairment in deglutition efficacy may cause malnutrition and/ or dehydration while compromised safety increases the risk of aspiration pneumonia. Approximately 7% of the population will experience dysphagia with risk equal between genders and incidence increasing with age. The prevalence of dysphagia can reach over 50% in hospitalized patients with acute illnesses e.g stroke or in nursing home residents aged 65 and older . Signs and symptoms that commonly motivate patients to seek medical care include coughing, choking, drooling, breathlessness, and gurgling between meals, dry oral mucosa, and feeling something is stuck in the throat. By analyzing these, health care providers can identify which phase of the swallowing process is involved .
