Dysphagia is a common non-motor symptom in Parkinson’s disease (PD), with a high incidence and insidious progression. It can lead to complications such as dehydration, malnutrition, aspiration pneumonia, and even death, seriously affecting the quality of life and prognosis of patients. Therefore, early screening, assessment, and intervention are crucial for improving the quality of life and prognosis of PD patients with dysphagia. This article mainly reviews the risk factors and management strategies of dysphagia in PD, with the aim of providing a reference for healthcare professionals to conduct subsequent evaluations and develop targeted interventions.
