Your input is needed on a review exploring swallowing therapy for dysphagia in patients with acute and subacute stroke.

Skills / interests: Patient and public input

Would you be interested in helping us with this research article focused on swallowing therapy for people with dysphagia in acute and subacute stroke?

I am looking for a patient or member of the public who would be willing to peer review this Cochrane systematic review “Swallowing therapy for dysphagia in acute and subacute stroke.”

When we say ‘patients and the public’, we mean patients and potential patients, carers, people who use health and social care services, and people or organizations that represent these groups.

We are interested in whether the language of the review, especially the language used in the Plain Language Summary (PLS), is accessible and if it feels relevant for those experiencing dysphagia after acute and subacute stroke, so it will be helpful to patients and members of the public making healthcare decisions.

We welcome feedback on any aspect of the review, with particular focus and feedback on the PLS section. Our aim is for this to be a manageable task and not overburden our reviewers.

If you are interested in providing peer review, please include your e-mail address in your response. This will allow us to confirm your enrolment in our editorial management system (called Editorial Manager) and ensure that you can receive the review assignment.

Thank you in advance for your consideration!

Ideal applicant

Someone who has experienced dysphagia after an acute or subacute stroke and has received or considered swallowing therapy, or a caregiver who has supported a person managing post-stroke swallowing difficulties and rehabilitation.
