| * [[Dysphagia]] is defined as difficulty in swallowing
| |
|
| |
|
| == Diagnosis == | | ==Case Studies== |
| | | [[Odynophagia case study one|Case #1]] |
| === History and Symptoms ===
| |
| A directed history should be performed to characterize the following:
| |
| * Onset
| |
| * Severity
| |
| * Duration
| |
| * Dysphagia with liquids versus solids
| |
| * Psychiatric history
| |
| * Prior episodes
| |
| * Substance exposure
| |
| * History of neck and head problems
| |
| | |
| === Laboratory Findings ===
| |
| | |
| ==== Electrolyte and Biomarker Studies ====
| |
| * Creatinine phosphokinase (CPK) can be used to rule out cardiac ischemia as a cause.
| |
| | |
| === Electrocardiogram ===
| |
| Can be used to assess for left atrial enlargement.
| |
| | |
| === Chest X Ray ===
| |
| Can used to rule out lung cancer and other mass lesions as well as left atrial enlargement.
| |
| | |
| === MRI and CT ===
| |
| * MRI of brain can be used to exclude CVA and mass lesions of the head and neck.
| |
| | |
| === Echocardiography or Ultrasound ===
| |
| Can be used to rule out an aneurysm or left atrial enlargement as a cause.
| |
| | |
| === Other Diagnostic Studies ===
| |
| * [[Esophagogastroduodenoscopy]] (OGD)
| |
| * [[Biopsy]]
| |
| * [[Barium swallow]]
| |
| * [[Electromyogram]] ([[EMG]])
| |
| * Nerve conduction tests
| |
| * Esophageal manometry
| |
| | |
| == Treatment ==
| |
| * Endoscopy (acute and chronic mechanical obstructions)
| |
| * Speech therapy (ALS and stroke patients)
| |
| | |
| == Pharmacotherapy ==
| |
| * Proton pump inhibitors or promotility agents, weight loss, avoidance of offending foods (gastroesophageal reflux disease)
| |
| * Anticholinergics (ALS, stroke, lower esophageal spasms)
| |
| * Muscarinic agents (myasthenia gravis)
| |
| * Glucocorticoids (myasthenia gravis and polymyositis)
| |
| * Antispasmodics, botulinum toxin injection (lower esophageal spasm)
| |
| | |
| == Surgery and Device Based Therapy ==
| |
| * Thoracic surgery, possible balloon dilation (chronic mechanical obstruction)
