Development and reliability of the revised Patterson Edema Scale

Heather M. Starmer et al.

Summary: The study aimed to revise the Patterson Edema Scale to improve its reliability and utility. A consensus group reviewed and revised the scale, then tested it with 18 speech language pathologists with over 2 years of experience. Results showed moderate to substantial interrater reliability for most parameters, except for fair agreement for true vocal folds. The Revised Patterson Edema Scale provides a reliable tool for clinicians and researchers to rate oedema in the supraglottic larynx and pharynx following treatment for head and neck cancer.
