Dr. Joanne Robbins has done some very exciting research in the geriatric population for tongue strengthening exercises.  You can search her name on the NIH website

Does anyone know if there is research I can find that specifically indicates that oral motor exercises have strengthened the muscles used for swallowing and then in turn improved the effectiveness of a patient's swallow?

I have been asked to write a review document for a law firm and would appreciate comments on this question: How do SLPs cope with the licensing issues in the states/provinces that do not include swallowing in their scope of practice?

Does anyone have or know of articles that provide statistics of the
prevalence of dysphagia in the frail elderly?

 

Any help would be appreciated.

We have recently admitted an elderly woman with advanced SDAT and
seizure disorder  and very aggressive behavior who prior to admission
was fed at home solely using a baby bottle with cross hatched nipple.
She retrains only a such swallow.  Hydration and nutrition have been
maintained with this approach. Using the bottle, the resident will often
self feed.  She aggressively resists PO feeds with anything other than a
bottle.  Essentially maintenance of PO is exclusively via a bottle feed.

 

If any of you have experience with bottle feeding approaches in a Long
Term Care setting, I would appreciate any you facility used regarding
cleaning/sterilization  of these items and any approaches your Nursing
staff used to maintain a supply of clean bottles on the nursing unit.  I
know  the approaches to this situation may appear easy, but not for us
at the moment.

Thank you 

Kassie

That is interesting. At what point was this approach implemented, and by
whom? I have wondered from time to time if this would be a consideration
for some similar patients but as you bring up , it seemed like it would
open up a can of issues: for pts. In institutions: dignity,
sterilization, oral control with successive boluses.

Hi All,
What do your facilities say to patients in preparation for modifieds/videos?
E.g., do they ask them to fast for x number of hours prior?  Just wondering
what the general consensus on preparation is.
I have never had anyone refrain from anything oral or enteral prior to a
study, but the radiology tech/mgr just emailed me stating we should have
patients fast for 12 hours prior to the procedure.
What say you all to this?
Thanks,
Kim

With our pediatric patients, we like them NPO for 3-4 hours prior to a
swallow study to make them hungry (especially the babies).  If an
esophagram is also ordered, radiology wants them NPO for 4-6 hours prior
to make sure their stomachs are empty.

For our adult patients, if only having a swallow study, NPO is not
necessary.  If having a swallow study and esophagram, radiology wants
then NPO for 4-6 hours prior to make sure their stomachs are empty. 

NPO for 12 hours seems a little extreme for a swallow study.

At Scottish Rite Hospital in Dallas, we just ask them not to eat breakfast--in the hopes that the hungrier they are, they will be more willing to eat "our foods".  Our pt. population is pediatric.  Our studies are scheduled for 8 and 9 in the morning.
