Assessment of pediatric dysphagia and feeding disorders: Clinical and instrumental approaches. Atypical eating and drinking behaviors can develop in association with dysphagia, aspiration, or a choking event. It is assumed that the incidence of feeding and swallowing disorders is increasing because of the improved survival rates of children with complex and medically fragile conditions (Lefton-Greif, 2008; Lefton-Greif et al., 2006; Newman et al., 2001) and the improved longevity of persons with dysphagia that develops during childhood (Lefton-Greif et al., 2017). This method . Ongoing staff and family education is essential to student safety.

They may also arise in association with sensory disturbances (e.g., hypersensitivity to textures), stress reactions (e.g., consistent or repetitive gagging), traumatic events increasing anxiety, or undetected pain (e.g., teething, tonsillitis). https://doi.org/10.1002/eat.22350, Erkin, G., Culha, C., Ozel, S., & Kirbiyik, E.

(2008). Pediatrics, 140(6), e20170731. Supportive interventions to facilitate early feeding and/or to promote readiness for feeding include kangaroo mother care (KMC), non-nutritive sucking (NNS), oral administration of maternal milk, feeding protocols, and positioning (e.g., swaddling). In addition to determining the type of treatment that is optimal for the child with feeding and swallowing problems, SLPs consider other service delivery variables that may affect treatment outcomes, including format, provider, dosage, and setting. The data below reflect this variability. TTS is used in patients with neurogenic dysphagia particularly associated with sensory deficits. 0000016477 00000 n 0000023632 00000 n Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 61(11), 12491258. According to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (5th ed. Instrumental assessments can help provide specific information about anatomy and physiology otherwise not accessible by noninstrumental evaluation. Swallowing is commonly divided into the following four phases (Arvedson & Brodsky, 2002; Logemann, 1998): Feeding disorders are problems with a range of eating activities that may or may not include problems with swallowing. Typical modifications may include thickening thin liquids, softening, cutting/chopping, or pureeing solid foods. 0000009195 00000 n Content for ASHA's Practice Portal is developed through a comprehensive process that includes multiple rounds of subject matter expert input and review. The clinical evaluation for infants from birth to 1 year of ageincluding those in the NICUincludes an evaluation of prefeeding skills, an assessment of readiness for oral feeding, an evaluation of breastfeeding and bottle-feeding ability, and observations of caregivers feeding the child. 0000061360 00000 n Referrals may be made to dental professionals for assessment and fitting of these devices. Protocols for determining readiness for oral feeding and specific criteria for initiating feeding vary across facilities. Deep Pharyngeal Neuromuscular Stimulation (DPNS) is a therapeutic program that restores muscle strength and reflexes within the pharynx for better swallowing. https://www.fns.usda.gov/cn/2017-edition-accommodating-children-disabilities-school-meal-programs, U.S. Food and Drug Administration. A physicians order to evaluate is typically not required in the school setting; however, it is best practice to collaborate with the students physician, particularly if the student is medically fragile or under the care of a physician. Number of all-listed diagnoses for sick newborn infants by sex and selected diagnostic categories [Data file]. Decisions regarding the initiation of oral feeding are based on recommendations from the medical and therapeutic team, with input from the parent and caregivers. For children with complex feeding problems, an interdisciplinary team approach is essential for individualized treatment (McComish et al., 2016). Logemann, J. 0000075738 00000 n ASHA does not endorse any products, procedures, or programs, and therefore does not have an official position on the use of electrical stimulation or specific workshops or products associated with electrical stimulation. For an example, see community management of uncomplicated acute malnutrition in infants < 6 months of age (C-MAMI) [PDF]. NNS patterns can typically be evaluated with skilled observation and without the use of instrumental assessment. Underlying disease state(s), chronological and developmental age of the child, social and environmental factors, and psychological and behavioral factors also affect treatment recommendations. https://doi.org/10.1017/S0007114513002699, Lefton-Greif, M.

Thermal stimulation of oropharyngeal structures with ice (thermal-tactile stimulation = TTS) is a widely used approach in dysphagia therapy. Thermal tactile stimulation also, known as thermal application is one type of therapy used for the treatment of swallowing disorders. Dysphagia can occur in one or more of the four phases of swallowing and can result in aspirationthe passage of food, liquid, or saliva into the tracheaand retrograde flow of food into the nasal cavity. appropriate positioning of the student for a safe swallow; specialized equipment indicated for positioning, as needed; environmental modifications to minimize distractions; adapted utensils for mealtimes (e.g., low flow cup, curved spoon/fork); recommended diet consistency, including food and liquid preparation/modification; sensory modifications, including temperature, taste, or texture; food presentation techniques, including wait time and amount; the level of assistance required for eating and drinking; and/or, Maureen A. Lefton-Greif, MA, PhD, CCC-SLP, Panayiota A. Senekkis-Florent, PhD, CCC-SLP. Feeding protocols include those that consider infant cues (i.e., responsive feeding) and those that are based on a schedule (i.e., scheduled feeding). Decisions are made based on the childs needs, their familys views and preferences, and the setting where services are provided. https://doi.org/10.1097/MRR.0b013e3283375e10, Fisher, M. M., Rosen, D.

Oralmotor treatments are intended to influence the physiologic underpinnings of the oropharyngeal mechanism to improve its functions. The space between the tongue and the palate increases, and the larynx and the hyoid bone lower, elongating and enlarging the pharynx (Logemann, 1998). Examples of maneuvers include the following: Although sometimes referred to as the Masako maneuver, the Masako (or tongue-hold) is considered an exercise, not a maneuver.

The evaluation process begins with a referral to a team of professionals within the school district who are trained in the identification and treatment of feeding and swallowing disorders. If a natural feeding process (e.g., position, caregiver involvement, and use of familiar foods) cannot be achieved, the results may not represent typical swallow function, and the study may need to be terminated, with results interpreted with caution. In these instances, the swallowing and feeding team will. . Please see the Treatment section of ASHAs Practice Portal page on Adult Dysphagia for further information.
