[Dysphagia] Research/ info on MND

[KMilford at middlemore.co.nz (Kate Milford (CMDHB))]

The MND Association has very good info and should have up to date
references.
Also, there is lots of stuff on the internet.
Try the article:
Murphy, J. (2004) Communication strategies of people with ALS and their
partners. ALS and other motor neurone disorders, 5: 2: 121-126. 
Also, you could look for articles by David Oliver who is a Palliative
Care Consultant with a special interest in MND.
Hope this helps
Kate

Subject: [Dysphagia] Research/ info on MND

Hello all,

I have recently been asked to speak at an MND Specialist Interest Group
organised by the Neurologists in our hospital. This is regarding the
role of SLT in managing MND. Can anyone point me in the right direction
of any recent research on MND - particularly communication or swallowing
difficulties associated with MND and/or management of these
difficulties.

Thanks in advance!

Karen
