Evidence Flashcards
What influences the absolute measurements in research?
Size of the system I eat adults versus children males versus women
What does the evidence say about physiological changes with a chin down position?
Mixed! Laryngeal vestibule closure (sensory?? Q: ) duration may be a better target with chin down position
What is the definition of laryngeal vestibule closure?
It is the duration of the arytenoids and epiglottic face maintain contact during the swallow
What are the two elements required to fill laryngeal vestibule closure?
Duration of closure and completeness of closure
What is the purpose of the effort full swallow?
When there is muscle weakness due to various conditions, the muscles of the tongue and pharynx may not be doing their part to push,lift or squeeze to propel food out of the mouth and throat. After swallowing, residual food and liquid in the mouth and throat are likely to overflow into the unprotected airway and cause what is known as aspiration— pyriform residue
Does effortful swallow increase oral and base of tongue pressures?
Yes, Non-disputed
What happens when you induce in effortful swallow?
Reduce the depth of airway invasion decreased upper Pharyngeal residue after swallow. In severe pharyngeal dysfunction pharyngeal retention can be exacerbated and nasal redirection can occur
Does muscle physiology change with the Mendelssohn?
Submental activation increased so >mylohyoid, geniohyoid & ant. Belly dig.
Does Mendelsohn maneuver change hyoid kinematics?
No, but it changes laryngeal elevation
Does the Mendelssohn maneuver impact UES relaxation/ duration in diameter?
UES duration changes but not diameter
Best way to train Mendelssohn?
Semg
What muscle physiology is activated with the Shaker?
Infra hyoid muscle activation, Anterior hyoid displacement, UES relaxation Increases
