It is easy for clinicians in busy medical environments to evaluate swallowing one time, and from one perspective. Patients with multidimensional problems require more than one approach to assessment, and usually more than one profession. But inter- and intraprofessional agreement on swallow physiology and management can be a daunting challenge.

Speech-language pathologists must consider the complex relationship of tracheostomy and ventilator-dependency with swallowing function in making treatment decisions that consider a patient’s potential aspiration risk. This self-study reviews recent literature related to dysphagia in the trach/vent population, including the pros and cons of tracheostomy, the use of blue dye to detect aspiration risk, and the so-called “trach effect” in pediatric dysphagia.
Dysphagia Intervention In Schools: Team Development and Treatment Strategies
Option(s):

This program presents strategies for developing process and procedures for school teams for evaluation, problem solving, the development and consistent use of feeding plans, and staff education and training. The presenters will also describe practical and effective research-based therapeutic and feeding strategies that work in school settings. Treatment strategies that foster improvement in self-feeding, oral-sensory and oral-motor skills, and swallowing are emphasized.
Dysphagia: State of the Clinical Examination
Option(s):
Journal (Online), Journal (Print)
CEUs:
0.4
With the rapid emergence of new dysphagia treatments, it is more important than ever for speech-language pathologists to make principled decisions to guide best practice until sufficient evidence is available to support new procedures. This self-study reviews the current state of the clinical swallowing examination, evaluates pulse oximetry as an indicator of aspiration, examines the utility of cervical auscultation, and explores the importance of clinical examination and evaluation for children prior to instrumental assessment.
Esophageal Dysphagia: Diagnosis and Treatment Options
Option(s):
Journal (Online), Journal (Print)
CEUs:
0.2
Explore various facets of the evaluation and treatment of esophageal disorders, including symptoms and etiologies, in this self-study program. The role of the SLP in the evaluation and treatment of esophageal dysphagia is discussed.
Esophageal Swallowing Physiology and Disorders
Option(s):
Multimedia CD, Additional Test Logins
CEUs:
0.2
This two hour presentation will include the anatomy and physiology of the esophageal dynamics of deglutition in adults. A review of research and clinical practice in the area of esophageal physiology and pathophysiology will be presented with clinical interpretation and implications. Clinical instrumentation used for diagnosis and management of esophageal disorders and their possible implications in the evaluation, treatment and management of dysphagic patients will be discussed.

Evaluation of Pediatric Feeding and Swallowing
Option(s):
DVD and Manual, Additional Manual(s)
CEUs:
0.2
In the comprehensive evaluation of infants and children with swallowing and feeding problems, the importance of knowledge regarding underlying etiologies, status of nutrition and hydration, and upper airway/pulmonary status cannot be overstated. This video self-study presents “typical” development as a basis for evaluating oral skills and swallowing. Strategies for clinical observations and instrumental considerations are presented, and video clips of infants and children enhance the learning experience. This program covers infants including neonates and children up to age 10.
Frazier Water Protocol: Safety, Hydration, and Quality of Life
Option(s):
Audio CD and Manual, Additional Manual(s)
CEUs:
0.2
For 23 years the Frazier Rehab Institute has allowed free water to dysphagic patients. The Frazier Water Protocol raises concerns about the safety of water, absorption of water in the lungs, and pathogenic bacteria. This program presents the rationale for the Frazier Water Protocol, along with supporting literature that includes aspiration pneumonia risk factors, as well as dehydration risks and consequences.
Guidelines for Speech-Language Pathologists Providing Swallowing and Feeding Services in Schools
Option(s):
Journal (Online), Journal (Print)
CEUs:
0.2
Speech-language pathologists (SLPs) play a significant role in the management of students with swallowing and feeding problems in school settings. ASHA policy documents for SLPs providing swallowing and feeding services in the schools are designed to clarify the administrative and programmatic issues involved in providing service or consultation for students with swallowing and feeding disorders in the school setting. This course is reprinted from ASHA Practice Policy: position statement, technical report, guidelines, and a knowledge/skills paper.
Instrumental Examination of Adults With Dysphagia: Anatomy and Physiology Series
Option(s):
eWorkshop
CEUs:
0.3
Explore in detail the forces that contribute to bolus flow, airway protection, and opening of the upper esophageal sphincter in adults. Analysis of these forces leads to more appropriate intervention, and more accurate estimation of risk for adverse, dysphagia-related health outcomes.
Managing Dysphagia in the Schools
Option(s):
Journal (Print)
CEUs:
1.1
As the number of students with dysphagia has increased, there has been renewed interest in current research on this population. Furthermore, changes in federal legislation and case law have clarified issues that are central to administrative decisions, educational programs, and related services associated with dysphagia management in the schools. Find out about the most current research and literature in ASHA's new clinical forum.
