Abstract
Dysphagia is an interdisciplinary problem. Doctors of different specialties (phoniatrician, ENT, gastrologist, neurologist), speech language therapists, physiotherapists and dieticians should be involved in the therapy of patients. The task of the first group is instrumental evaluation of swallowing, defining the safe consistency of fluids and foods, showing effective therapeutic maneuvers (restitutive and compensatory maneuvers), and finally - adapting the optimal diet to patient's eating ability (adaptive methods). The purpose of the study is to present a modification of the consistency of fluids and foods according to the recommendations of the International Dietary Standardization Initiative (IDDSI). The work shows the basic consistencies and tests that allow for them to be checked.<br/><br/>
