A

Chewing and manipulation of food in the mouth

145
Q

Which action occurs during the Oral phase of swallowing?

A

Tongue quickly sweeps back, pulling food to the pharynx

146
Q

What is
the primary function of the soft palate during the Pharyngeal phase of swallowing?

A

soft palate closes the nasal cavity

147
Q

what is oral prep

A

Engaged all senses and cognitive awareness of food
● Includes bringing food to your mouth - bite size, sip size
● Chewing - depending on consistency, texture, size, and temperature
● Tongue is responsible to move food around the mouth
○ Allows for chewing

148
Q

what is oral stage

A

begins once chewing has stopped

149
Q

what is the pharyngeal stage

A

● Passage of food through the pharynx to the esophagus opening
Soft pallate raises, larynx moves up, vocal folds close then larynx lowers

150
Q

what is the esophageal stage

A

Food has passed through the upper esophageal valve/sphincter
● Valve closes and peristaltic squeezing actions of the esophageal muscles carries the
bolus to the lower esophageal valve at the bottom
● Usually takes 8 - 20 seconds
● Lower valve briefly opens for bolus to enter the stomach
○ Closes again to prevent gastric/stomach acid from coming up the esophagus

151
Q

what is bolus

A

food mass in the mouth that can be chewed and prepared to
start the process of swallowing

152
Q

what is aspiration:

A

solids (food) or liquids entering the lungs (Below vocal
folds)

153
Q

what is silent aspiration

A

penetration of food/liquid/ saliva past the larynx and
passing below the vocal folds without overt signs (protective cough or
choking)

154
Q

what are the 3 options for dysphagia patients?

A

NPO (Nothing by Mouth)
■ NG tube: nasogastric tube
and ■ G tube: gastrostomy tube

155
Q

● Physiological processing (chemical and electrical activity) begins in the …

A

inner ear

156
Q

outer ear purpose?

A

Collects and resonates sound
● Assists in localizing direction of sound
● Helps to protect from middle ear damage
○ Cerumen (wax)

157
Q

outer ear parts?

A

● Pinna: the part of ear you can see
○ Helix (upper rim) and lobule (lower potion)
● Ear canal (1 inch long)
○ Directs sound to tympanic membrane
● Tympanic membrane: outer surface of the eardrum
○ Separates ear canal from middle ear
○ Vibrates into middle ear (sound waves)

158
Q

Middle ear purpose?

A

Provides the energy transformation
● Allows the vibrations of the tympanic membrane to be amplified before reaching the
cochlea

159
Q

Middle ear parts

A

Ossicular chain: Three joined bones that connect the tympanic membrane to the
cochlea. Move based on the vibrations (rhythm) of the eardrum movement
○ Malleus: “mallet” or “hammer”
○ Incus
○ Stapes
● Eustachian Tube
○ Keeps an constant middle ear air pressure
○ Connects middle ear to the nasopharynx
○ Valve often closed at nasopharynx except when chewing, swallowing, yawning, sneezing, and
in babies (before 6 months)
○ Barotrauma: feeling of pressure in middle ear that changes with altitude

160
Q

inner ear purpose?

A

Converts movement of ossicles into signal for auditory nerve to
receive

161
Q

inner ear parts?

A

cochlea and vestibular system
