Dear Paul,=20
I think you'll find that there's an awful lot you weren't taught in =
school and Dr Marik's article hits the major points right on the button =
- except for the section on chin tuck and head turning.  these are =
maneuvres that are a) contraindicated in many patients and b) should be =
used only after the nature of the impairment and its etiology has been =
clearly identified e.g. unilateral epiglottic failure would mean that if =
head turn were to be used it would be to the same side - otherwise one =
cuts off the only available passage for the bolus. naturally, this can =
only be identified on AP views which, as I understand it, are rarely =
done on MBS. Is that true?
Irene.
