Dysphagia Treatment Part 2 Flashcards
Order of Interventions (5):
1) Posture changes (can try in FEES/MBS)/ oral sensory
2) Maneuvers/exercises
3) Diet modifications
4) Prosthetic
5) Surgery
- try several different things
- can do these during a diagnostic to get cues for treatment
Oral Dysphagia:
↓ lip closure
oral motor (lip ROM/resistance)
Oral Dysphagia:
↓ buccal tension
head tilt (to stronger side)
Oral Dysphagia:
↓ jaw mvmt/mastication (2)
oral sensory (pressure, cold, sour)
oral motor (jaw ROM/resistance)
Oral Dysphagia:
↓ oral transit time
oral motor (tongue ROM)
Oral Dysphagia:
delayed oral onset
oral sensory (pressure + cold bolus)
- wakes things up
e. g. put pressure on tongue with a cold spoon
Oral Dysphagia:
apraxia of swallow
↑ viscosity/chewing; ↑ volume
Oral Dysphagia:
↓ tongue ROM/strength (4)
1) chin tuck
2) supraglottic (bc tongue base is retracted)
3) oral motor (tongue ROM/resistance)
4) ↑ viscosity
Oral Dysphagia:
↓ tongue elevation (4)
1) head tilt (if Unilateral)
2) oral motor (tongue ROM/resistance)
3) head tilt back
4) palatal prosthetic
Pharyngeal Dysphagia:
pharyngeal delay /absence (2)
1) oral sensory (thermal/tactile stim, suck swallow, pressure; sour)
2) chin tuck
Pharyngeal Dysphagia:
premature spillage (3)
1) chin tuck (opens the valleculae)
2) oral motor (tongue ROM/resistance-better bolus control and tongue base retraction)
3) ↑ viscosity (diet modification)
Pharyngeal Dysphagia:
short duration airway closure (3)
1) supraglottic
2) super-supraglottic
3) effortful
Pharyngeal Dysphagia:
short duration CP opening (2)
1) Mendelsohn
2) Shaker
Pharyngeal Dysphagia:
↓ pharyngeal coordination
Mendelsohn
Pharyngeal Dysphagia:
short duration laryngeal elevation
Mendelsohn
Pharyngeal Dysphagia:
↓ anterior hyoid motion
Mendelsohn
Pharyngeal Dysphagia:
↓ superior hyoid motion (2)
1) Mendelsohn
2) chin tuck
Pharyngeal Dysphagia:
↓ tongue base to pharyngeal wall (3)
1) chin tuck
2) effortful
3) oral motor (tongue base retraction)
Pharyngeal Dysphagia:
delayed triggering of pharyngeal (5)
1) chin tuck
2) supraglottic
3) thermal-tactile
4) suck-swallow
5) ↑ viscosity
Pharyngeal Dysphagia:
↓ laryngeal vestibule closure (5)
1) chin tuck
2) effortful
3) super-supraglottic
4) Mendelsohn
5) ↑ viscosity
Pharyngeal Dysphagia:
↓ laryngeal closure (true vf’s) (6)
1) chin tuck
2) head rotation (to weaker side)
3) supraglottic
4) super-supraglottic
5) ↑ viscosity
6) adduction (LSVT, etc)
Pharyngeal Dysphagia:
Unilateral pharyngeal weakness (6)
1) head rotation (to weaker side)
2) cough after swallow (adduction technique to clear residues)
3) multiple swallows to clear
4) side-lying (on stronger side)
5) head tilt (to stronger side)
6) Masako
Pharyngeal Dysphagia:
↓ hyoid mvmt, ↓ laryngeal elevation, CP dysfunction, pyriform residue (6)
1) head rotation (if U weakness)
2) Mendelsohn
3) ↑ viscosity
4) head tilt (if U weakness)
5) Shaker
6) chin tuck
Esophageal Dysphagia:
↓ peristalsis, motility in esophagus
esophageal aperistalsis
medication
Esophageal Dysphagia:
esophageal stenosis/stricture
dilation/stretching
Esophageal Dysphagia:
esophageal reflux/GERD (3)
1) positioning
2) medication
3) reflux behavioral guidelines
Esophageal Dysphagia:
LES dysfunction/achalasia (2)
1) medication (reflux)
2) surgery
Esophageal Dysphagia:
esophageal ulcers (2)
1) medication
2) surgery
