Abstract
The incidence rates are reported to be between 29-67% in acute stroke patients. People post stroke with dysphagia are more likely to be anxious and depressed due to inability to eat.

There can be discrepancy between health care perception and patient own perception of difficulty and severity. There are very limited Indian published research studies considering large number of Hindi speaking population. Therefore current study to develop tool which can measurephysical, emotional, functional aspect of swallowing.25 item questionnaire (8 emotional, 8 physical, 9 functional) was developed and translated into Hindi language.
