Q

Why does a trach affect swallowing? (SAME-SAD-C)

A
  • Increased saliva and secretions
  • Increased risk of aspiration
  • Mobility of tongue reduced
  • Elevation of anterior tongue reduced
  • Subglottic air pressure decreases
  • Abductor and adductors of laryngeal muscle decreases
  • Desensitization of oropharynx and larynx due to diverted air flow
  • Cough mechanism altered

Q

How can we improve swallowing and speech if trach? (DOD-C)

A
  • Digital occlusion
  • One-way speaking valve
  • Decannulation
  • Capping or plugging valve
  • -> Will allow for the restoration of subglottic and transglottic airflow

Q

What is the impact of laryngectomy on swallowing?

A

Respiration and deglutition are completely separated, resulting in a combination of decreased muscle contractions and air pressure will significantly alter the pharyngeal phase of swallowing. This causes the tongue to compensate and results in a more effortful swallow

Q

Why is EN best practice s/p H and N Sx? (3)

A

1) Bypass expected swelling and edema
2) Protect a surgical anastomosis
3) Brachytherapy (results in edema of tongue and issues with swallowing)

25
Q

Discuss the protocol to transition from EN to PO feeds after Sx, when is the transition realistic?

A
  • Swallow rehabilitation with small sips of water and puree foods
  • No transition for 7-10 days in major OR, >14 days if previous XRT and not until brachytherapy tx is complete
26
Q

When we are ready to transition for EN to PO fees, what are the steps? What should be considered? (FEAT)

A

1) Conduct a formal swallow assessment
2) Consider fistula present, edema reduced, adequate wound healthy and of flap, trach removal or closure
3) Decide whether to progress to PO, or keep on EN

A
  • Non sensate
  • Bulky
  • Cannot perform peristalsis
28
Q

We decide to progress our patient from EN to PO foods after the swallow assessment. Which foods should we initially introduce?

A
  • Avoid adhesive, grainy, spicy or foods with mixed consistencies
  • Favour cohesive and non adhesive foods
29
Q

What does the severity of radiation therapy depend on?

A

-Volume, Site, Number of Tx, Concurrent therapy, Dosage

30
Q

When should we expect side effects of radiation therapy?

A
  • 2-4 weeks after start of Tx

31
Q

Nutritional intervention at start of radiation Tx? SAFFO

A
  • Swallow assessment
  • Avoid alcohol, caffeine, spicy moods, extreme temps
  • Fluids

32
Q

Nutritional intervention during radiation Tx? MICE

A
  • Monitor weekly
  • Initiate ONS
  • Counsel on specific symptoms
  • EN if required
33
Q

When may EN be required during radiation Tx? When may it be initiated prior to starting the RTX?

A

When odynophagia or mucositis becomes severe, prophylactic PEG inserted
-If previous H and N cancer, previous mucositis and odynophagia or deemed high risk for M and O, prophylactic PEG may be inserted prior to TX

34
Q

Post RTX nutritional intervention?

A

NPO–> Oral: Start with pureed foods, thickened liquids, may need ONS

A
  • Poor oral health
  • Dentition issues
  • Permanent taste alterations
  • Xerostemia

  • Thyroid problems
36
Q

What are the consequences of fibrosis observed in XRT? (PS-MATE)

A
  • Peristalsis decreased
  • Stenosis
