Hello,
I am an SLP graduate student, and I'm doing research on a case study
for my dysphagia class. The problem is, I'm having trouble finding resources
on the subject.
The case is regarding a 24 y.o. male with a gunshot would to the face.
Approx. 1/3 of the left maxillary bone is missing, as well as some teeth.
His trigeminal and facial nerves were damaged, and the left faucial arches
and left side of velum were torn and surgically repaired. Also, the tongue
and left cheek were torn and surgically repaired as well. He is currently
NPO and feeding through a g-tube. I'm supposed to answer questions about
what can I expect to see on the MBS and overall eval, and is PO intake a
realistic goal?
If anyone can give me any leads as to where to look for any kinds of
resources (books, periodicals, websites, etc.), I would greatly appreciate it!
Thanks in advance,
Jocelyn
