Advanced Issues in the Management of Individuals Who Are Tracheotomized and Ventilator Dependent
Option(s):
Audio CD and Manual, Additional Manual(s)
CEUs:
0.2
Using the most recent evidence, this program explores the so-called “trach effect” in individuals with and without dysphagia, the safety and efficacy of using blue dye during clinical swallow examinations, the effect of tracheotomy tube occlusion status on secretions and swallow function, and the SLP's role ventilator weaning and swallowing rehabilitation. Effective translation of research evidence to clinical practice is reviewed. Clinical examples of unusual tracheotomy tube complications are presented.

Clinical Swallowing Examination of Adults With Dysphagia: Anatomy and Physiology Series
Option(s):
eWorkshop
CEUs:
0.3
Oral-facial sensorimotor examination is a key component of the clinical swallowing examination, revealing swallowing impairments that should be investigated through instrumental assessment. Refresh your knowledge of the anatomy and physiology of adult oropharyngeal swallowing mechanisms, as a foundation for understanding normal and abnormal swallowing function.
Decision Making in Adult Dysphagia
Option(s):
eWorkshop
CEUs:
0.3
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.
Dinner's on Us
Option(s):
Poster
Hang this poster in your waiting room to help inform your clients understand dysphagia and the issues surrounding swallowing disorders.
Dysphagia in Rare Conditions
Option(s):
Book
This is the first book to concentrate on dysphagia in rare conditions—those that occur infrequently or those that may occur more frequently but are only sometimes associated with dysphagia. Covering a wide range of conditions—from progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), through connective tissue disease, to conditions as diverse as West Nile virus—the editors and expert contributors efficiently synthesize the available information to provide the essentials needed to help clinicians to perform sophisticated assessments, based on their knowledge of both the conditions and the expected swallowing signs and treatments.
Dysphagia in the Trach/Vent Population
Option(s):
Journal (Online), Journal (Print)
CEUs:
0.4
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):
Audio CD and Manual, Additional Manual(s)
CEUs:
0.2
Feeding and swallowing problems affect many students in schools. To identify, manage, and assist these students, school staff need systematic procedures and coordinated effort among dysphagia team members. 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 Toolkit
Option(s):
Specialized Kit
SLPs working with individuals with swallowing disorders will find the Dysphagia Toolkit invaluable. Keep the materials you need on hand for swallowing evaluations and treatment. Use this kit to get you started and personalize it with your own materials.
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.

Essential Body Parts for Speech and Swallowing
Option(s):
Poster
This poster has five sections that illustrate the head and neck, brain, respiration, larynx (interior), and vocal folds.
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.
Feeding and Swallowing Problems in Children
Option(s):
Brochure
This revised brochure defines both feeding and swallowing disorders in children. It includes information about what causes feeding and swallowing problems, signs to look for in babies and children, and what an SLP can do to help. Written in easy to understand language.
Feeding Individuals With Swallowing Disorders
Option(s):
DVD, Videotape
This informational product is designed to help you educate staff who routinely feed patients, including nurses, CNAs, and families.
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.
