Zusammenfassung:This study aimed to evaluate whether the Pediatric Dysphagia Risk Screening Instrument (PDRSI) was a suitable test for children with cerebral palsy (CP) and assess the instrument’s Turkish validity and reliability. One-hundred twenty-six children with CP participated in this study. “Cronbach’s alpha (ɑ),” “Cronbach’s ɑ when one item is deleted,” “inter-item correlation,” and “corrected item-to-total correlation” were used to assess internal consistency. In addition, inter-rater agreement tests (Cohen’s kappa coefficient) were conducted for reliability. Construct validity was used to assess the validity. Moreover, flexible fiberoptic endoscopic evaluation of the swallowing method was used to describe the receiver operating characteristic curve analysis and calculate the sensitivity and specificity of T-PDRSI. It was found that the PDRSI had adequate validity and reliability. The PDRSI can be used in children with CP as a valid and reliable instrument with high sensitivity and specificity.
