Advanced Nursing Care for Medically  Fragile Children with Dysphagia

Dysphagia is difficulty swallowing food or liquids, requiring more effort than usual for these to reach the stomach. This condition can sometimes be painful, and in severe cases, swallowing can become impossible. While occasional issues with swallowing—such as eating too quickly or not chewing properly—are typically harmless, chronic dysphagia is a serious medical condition that requires treatment. Dysphagia can occur at any age but is more common in older adults, with treatment depending on the underlying cause.
