Therefore, we conducted this study to assess the role of the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) and the Gugging Swallowing Screen (GUSS) in predicting stroke-associated pneumonia (SAP). These scales are routinely used in stroke patients. Therefore, their application in predicting SAP risk will be of high value in clinical practice. There has been no previous study evaluating the effectiveness of SAP risk prediction for each of these scales.Aim: This study aimed to compare the value of NIHSS and GUSS in SAP prediction and their convenience in clinical practice.Methods: It was a cohort study. The receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curves were constructed to assess the sensitivity (Se) and specificity (Sp) of the scales. Area under the curves (AUC) were calculated, and we compared them.Results: NIHSS had a medium value of predictor of SAP with AUC 0.764 (95% CI 0.735– 0.792), 65.4% Se, 76.5% Sp. GUSS had good value in predicting SAP with AUC 0.858 (95% CI 0.833– 0.880), 80.5% Se, 80.1% Sp. Pairwise comparison of ROCs curves demonstrated that the difference between two AUCs was significant (p < 0.01). Performing GUSS required 24.5 ± 6.7 minutes, 2.5 times longer than NIHSS (9.9 ± 2.0 minutes).Conclusion: GUSS had a better predictive value of SAP than NIHSS. But NIHSS was more convenient in clinical practice because of its simple instrument and quick performance.Keywords: stroke-related pneumonia, post-stroke pneumonia, pneumonia after stroke, pneumonia predictionDang PDNguyen MHMai XKPham DDDang MDNguyen DHBui VNMai DTDo NBDo DTDove Medical Pressarticlestroke-related pneumoniapost-stroke pneumoniapneumonia after strokepneumonia prediction.Therapeutics.
