Resumo	The Swallowing Quality of Life (SWAL-QoL) Questionnaire is a comprehensive 44-item self-report measure of the psychosocial and functional impact of dysphagia across 11 quality-of-life domains, including eating burden, food selection, social participation, emotional impact, and fatigue. Developed by McHorney and colleagues (2002), SWAL-QoL captures the patient perspective on swallowing-related disability, complementing objective clinical measures (dysphagia severity, aspiration risk) with data on lived experience and psychological burden. A brief 15-item version, SWAL-CARE, enables efficient monitoring of treatment response.	The Dysphagia Outcome and Severity Scale (DOSS) is a 7-point clinician-rated ordinal scale that measures the severity of swallowing dysfunction and functional swallowing outcomes across two dimensions: safety (penetration-aspiration risk) and efficiency (oral intake adequacy and diet level tolerance). Developed by O'Neil and colleagues in 1999, DOSS integrates clinical observation with videofluoroscopic findings to provide a standardized, functionally meaningful classification of swallowing status from normal to non-functional.
