Treatment Flashcards
compensatory techniques for delays in oral prep
+Population
o Modifying diet
Enhance sensory input (texture, taste, carbonation)
Population: dementia
compensatory techniques for reduced lingual control/movement
+Population
o Modified diet: Rheology
o Feeding activity: Clearing mouth with finger/rinsing mouth
Population: MND, PD, HD, MG, Cortical strokes + TBI
rehabilitative techniques for reduced lingual control/movement
o Rehabilitation: Tongue Exercises (IOPI)
Population: Cortical strokes + TBI
compensatory techniques for oral pooling and residue
+Population
o Modified diet: Rheology
o Feeding activity: Clearing mouth with finger/rinsing mouth
Population: Dementia + PD
compensatory techniques for spillage from the lips
+Population
o Posture: Labial/chin support
* Posture may be difficult (MND)
Population: MND + PD
compensatory techniques for delayed swallow initiation
+Population
o Modifying diet: Enhance Sensory input (texture/taste/carbonation)
o Modifying feeding activity: Thermal tactile stimulation
Population: all disorders
compensatory techniques for premature spillage into pharynx
+Population
o Modified feeding activity: Bolus control technique: Modify bolus size and intake rate
o Diet-fluid modification: Rheology
Population: PD+ TBI
rehabilitative techniques forpremature spillage into pharynx
+Population
o Modified posture: Supraglottic swallow?
Population: TBI
compensatory techniques for all disorders with pharyngeal residue
o Feeding activity modification: Multiple swallows
compensatory technique for pharyngeal residue with NO unilateral damage.
+ population
o Head rotation (to weaker side)
Population: Dementia, MND, MG, PD, BS stroke + LM stroke
compensatory techniques for pharyngeal residue WITH unilateral damage.
+ population
o Head tilt (to stronger side)
rehabilitative techniques for pharyngeal residue.
+ population
o Shaker (head lift) – if aspiration after swallow – only use if no cognitive limitations/noon-compliance
o Biofeedback – sEMG (Surface Electromyography)
population: LM stroke + TBI
compensatory techniques for Nasal regurgitation
+ population
palatal prosthesis
population: MND
compensatory techniques for Repetitive swallows
+ population
o Feeding activity modification
Head rotation (severity depends)
o Multiple swallows
Population: HD
compensatory techniques for reduced hyolaryngeal excursion
+ population
o Feeding activity modification
Diet/fluid modification
populations: Dementia, BS stroke, PD, LM stroke + TBI
