Results
The sample included 27 participants divided into a control group (n=13) and an experimental group (n=14) (Table 1). The evaluation of the severity of the dysphasia revealed a mean FOIS score of 4.2 for the control group and 4.6 for the experimental group, corresponding to similar oral diet and a mild to severe dysphagia.
Patients included in the control and in the experimental group showed similar sociodemographic and clinical characteristics (data not shown).
