Oropharyngolaryngeal Disorders in Scleroderma: Development and Validation of the SLS Scale
Dysphagia, 08/31/09
Vitali C et al. – Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a multisystemic disorder characterized by functional and structural abnormalities of small blood vessels and fibrosis of the skin and internal organs. Eighty percent of subjects with SSc have orofacial manifestations. No tests for oral manifestations have been validated for this pathology, and in the literature there are few studies of speech therapy for subjects with SSc. These facts suggested the need for an exhaustive assessment of mouth mobility and muscle strength, and also of swallowing and voice, in order to plan a targeted and effective speech therapy.
