Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to 1) evaluate the discriminant ability of simple clinical markers to detect swallowing impairment in individuals with ALS, 2) develop and validate a minimally invasive clinical screening tool for use at multidisciplinary ALS clinics, and 3) determine the natural history of swallowing impairment and decline in ALS.
Detailed Description:
This research study is being performed to determine screening tools or tests that are able to identify and track swallowing problems associated with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) over time. Also, this study will provide insight into the natural progression of swallowing impairment in persons with ALS over time.
Participants enrolled in this study will complete an evaluation at the University of Florida Aerodigestive Research Core laboratory located at Shands Hospital, Gainesville every three months. Each evaluation will take approximately 90 minutes. During these evaluations, a videofluoroscopy (X-ray of swallowing) examination, cough tests and questionnaires will be completed.
