DIAZ CARDENAS, Yanet et al. Evaluating normal pattern of the mature swallowing in medical practice. Medicentro Electrónica [online]. 2022, vol.26, n.2, pp. 290-311.  Epub 01-Jun-2022. ISSN 1029-3043.

Introduction:

indicators of normal pattern of the mature swallowing were established in Villa Clara, but they have not yet been evaluated.

Objective:

to evaluate the indicators of normal pattern of the mature swallowing.

Methods:

a descriptive cross-sectional study was carried out in 107 children from Santa Clara, between September 2016 and November 2017. An observation guide of swallowing was used to evaluate the indicators.

Results:

the manifestation of these indicators was evaluated as adequate in 30 of the 36 children. Swallowing sounds, escape of food and tongue position were observed to be mature, in more than 70 percent, in the age group between 2 years and 4 months and 2 years and 10 months; neck movements, contraction of masseter muscles and food residues (before eating solids) at 2 years and 11 months up to 3 years and 5 months; as well as contraction of chin and lips at 3 years and 6 months.

Conclusions:

the indicators of normal pattern of the mature swallowing were evaluated as effective.
