Description

Los ni?os y las ni?as con disfunciones neurol?gicas tienen frecuentemente disfagia, condici?n que les ocasiona infecciones respiratorias a repetici?n, desnutrici?n, mala calidad de vida; su oportuno diagn?stico permite decidir sobre la mejor intervenci?n. La videofluoroscopia y de videoendoscopia son t?cnicas diagn?sticas invasivas, costosas y por lo tanto dif?ciles de hacerlas, lo que ocasiona retardo en el diagn?stico e intervenci?n. Hoy en d?a existen nuevas tecnolog?as m?dicas no invasivas que pueden ser muy eficaces, una de ellas es la auscultaci?n cervical que escucha los sonidos de la degluci?n mediante un estetoscopio u otro dispositivo de medici?n como la colocaci?n de un micr?fono o un aceler?metro en la superficie del cuello. Este m?todo tiene como principio que los sonidos y/o movimientos biol?gicos normales de la degluci?n son diferentes de los anormales.
The children with neurological disorders often have dysphagia, a condition that causes respiratory infection to repetition, malnutrition, poor quality of life, their early diagnosis allow to decide on the best intervention. The videofluoroscopy and videoendoscopia are invasive diagnostic techniques, which are expensive and therefore difficult to make, causing delay in diagnosis and intervention. Today there are new noninvasive medical technologies that can be very effective, one is the cervical auscultation which listens to the sounds of swallowing through a stethoscope or other measuring device such as placing a microphone or an accelerometer on the surface of the neck. This method has the principle that the sound and/or biological normal swallowing movements are different of the abnormal. In this article we review the social relevance, the diagnosis of dysphagia, the clinical applications of the cervical auscultation and the devices used to perform it, which is presented as a basis to establish its potential use for the detection of dysphagia in children with neurodevelopmental problems.
