***Even if this were possible - extremely doubtful- one would have to have a
very clear idea of the cause of these impairments - sensory, motor, mixed
-and there does not seem to be an obvious association with his esophageal
dysfunction.
Irene, I understand all that and really appreciate all your
comments.........I'm still waiting for his records and the reports from his 3
MBS's.............but my original question was not about this particular pt but was a
general question re: what data is available about frequency of treatment/practice?
Do we really know how much "homework" we should be expecting/demanding of
our pts to see results? The hospital slp had him practicing
6x/day...........at what point does the law of diminishing returns kick in?
