It was crucial to evaluate the relationship between swallowing disorders and selected demographic and clinical indicators. Additionally, the association between various patient feeding methods and selected demographic and clinical factors was assessed. Based on the analysis of medical documentation, we identified the most important clinical parameters, including demographic data, the frequency of stroke risk factors, the location of the ischaemic lesion, cortical involvement, stroke severity as measured by the NIHSS (Nationale Institutes of Health Stroke Scale), and the methods of feeding post-stroke patients. Dysphagia was observed in 65.9% of the patients in the study group. Hypertension was the most common chronic illness in the studied population of ischemic stroke patients (91.8% of patients). Diet modification (35.7%) and PEG (25%) were the frequent methods of feeding in patients with confirmed dysphagia. Age played a significant role in determining the feeding methods in patients with dysphagia. Patients with a PEG (Percutaneous Endoscopic Gastrostomy) tube were the oldest (79.37 \u00b1 10.80) and 75% of them had pneumonia. Early identification of swallowing difficulties in stroke patients is critical in determining an appropriate and safe feeding plan, as well as initiating logopedics therapy to improve swallowing efficacy and minimize pulmonary complications.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/nu16081196","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,4,17]],"date-time":"2024-04-17T10:52:37Z","timestamp":1713351157000},"page":"1196","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["Dysphagia in Ischaemic Stroke Patients: One Centre Retrospective Study"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"16","author":[{"given":"Oliwia","family":"Maciejewska","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Bielanski Hospital, 01-809 Warsaw, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Katarzyna","family":"K\u0119pczy\u0144ska","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurology, Faculty of Medicine and Dentistry, Medical University of Warsaw, 01-809 Warszawa, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ma\u0142gorzata","family":"Polit","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurology, Faculty of Medicine and Dentistry, Medical University of Warsaw, 01-809 Warszawa, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3130-1036","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Izabela","family":"Domitrz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurology, Faculty of Medicine and Dentistry, Medical University of Warsaw, 01-809 Warszawa, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,4,17]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","first-page":"101","article-title":"Dysfagia-objaw alarmuj\u0105cy","volume":"6","author":"Cak","year":"2004","journal-title":"Chir.
