7 cze 2023 · The goal of this review is to understand normal swallow physiology in children and how that physiology can be disrupted, to give recommendations for evaluating dysphagia in children, and to summarize important etiologies of dysphagia that can be managed by otolaryngologists.
The instrumental assessment looks at functional and structural aspects of swallowing that aren’t visible upon physical examination. It can answer specific questions about the presence and extent of swallow dysfunction, safety for feeding, and the effectiveness of therapeutic strategies.
1 lut 2018 · The most likely clinical scenario of the infant in this video is a: The videofluoroscopic swallow study (VFSS), also known as a modified barium swallow study, is a form of instrumental assessment of swallow function.
Neonatal dysphagia, or abnormalities of swallowing, represent a major global problem, and consequences of dysfunctional feeding patterns carry over into infancy and toddler age groups. Growth, development, and independent feeding skills are all delayed among high-risk infants.
This article will focus on instrumental studies of swallowing physiology used in the diagnosis and management of swallowing dysfunction and aspiration. Therapeutic strategies to improve airway protection during swallowing will also be described.
3 mar 2021 · Infants frequently present with feeding difficulties and respiratory symptoms, which are often attributed to gastroesophageal reflux but may be due to oropharyngeal dysphagia with aspiration.
1 lis 2021 · The studies included in the systematic review that used protocols to assess swallowing biomechanics through VFSS and FESS in the neonatal and/or pediatric populations, spanning the age group from 34 weeks gestational age (GA) to 19 years [16].
