of the recent revelation of the dehydrating effects of thickeners and
the failure of thickening and chin tuck to prevent aspiration. The
authors acknowledge that the ciliary clearance of aspirated thickened
fluids probably causes the resultant pneumonia.  This is undoubtedly
more true of gum based thickeners. It would seem that management,
especially of the elderly, requires immediate alteration.
