A pre- and post-operative protocol for assessment of voice and swallowing function in patients undergoing heart or lung transplantation
Novel evidence of self-reported pre-transplant voice and swallowing changes indicate value in baseline screening. Discrepancies between patient-report and instrumental assessment results highlight the need for multi-faceted evaluation. Large cohort studies are needed to determine the salient evaluation measures and time points for voice and swallowing assessment in this population.
