Oropharyngeal dysphagia and cerebral palsy. During an instrumental assessment of swallowing, the clinician may use information from cardiac, respiratory, and oxygen saturation monitors to monitor any changes to the physiologic or behavioral condition. McComish, C., Brackett, K., Kelly, M., Hall, C., Wallace, S., & Powell, V. (2016). https://doi.org/10.1177/1053815118789396, Shaker, C. S. (2013a). Additionally, the definition of ARFID considers nutritional deficiency, whereas PFD does not (Goday et al., 2019). The SLP also teaches parents and other caregivers to provide positive oral experiences and to recognize and interpret the infants cues during NNS. Tactile and thermal hypersensitivity were assessed using von Frey filaments and the tail flick test initially, at 24 h and 48 h after administration. The school SLP (or case manager) contacts the family to obtain consent for an evaluation if further evaluation is deemed necessary. (2001). Use: The Swallowing Activator is used for Tactile-Thermal Stimulation (TTS) to enhance bilateral cortical and brainstem activation of the swallow. 0000023632 00000 n According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), survey interviews indicated that within the past 12 months, 0.9% of children (approximately 569,000) ages 317 years are reported to have swallowing problems (Bhattacharyya, 2015; Black et al., 2015). A feeding and swallowing plan addresses diet and environmental modifications and procedures to minimize aspiration risk and optimize nutrition and hydration. Early provision of oropharyngeal colostrum leads to sustained breast milk feedings in preterm infants. This understanding gives the SLP the necessary knowledge to choose appropriate treatment interventions and provide rationale for their use in the NICU. Neuropsychiatric Disease and Treatment, 12, 213218. Reproduced and adapted with permission. effect of neuromuscular and thermal tactile stimulation on its rehabilitation. Results There were eight participants, six women and. For procedures that involve presentation of a solid and/or liquid bolus, the clinician instructs the family to schedule meals and snacks so that the child will be hungry and more likely to accept foods as needed for the study.

Thermal tactile oral stimulation (TTOS) is an established method to treat patients with neurogenic dysphagia especially if caused by sensory deficits. Further investigative research to clarify NMES protocols and patient population is needed to optimize results. The clinician requests that the family provide. A clinical evaluation of swallowing and feeding is the first step in determining the presence or absence of a swallowing disorder. American Speech-Language-Hearing Association. Determining the appropriate procedure to use depends on what needs to be visualized and which procedure will be best tolerated by the child. National Health Interview Survey. 0000089204 00000 n Clinicians may consider the following factors when assessing feeding and swallowing disorders in the pediatric population: As infants and children grow and develop, the absolute and relative size and shape of oral and pharyngeal structures change. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.pedneo.2017.04.003, Speyer, R., Cordier, R., Kim, J.-H., Cocks, N., Michou, E., & Wilkes-Gillan, S. (2019). Pediatric Pulmonology, 41(11), 10401048. Such beliefs and holistic healing practices may not be consistent with recommendations made. The pharyngeal muscles are stimulated through neural pathways. The SLP providing and facilitating oral experiences with NNS must take great care to ensure that the experiences are positive and do not elicit stress or other negative consequences. Appropriate referrals to medical professionals should be made when anatomical or physiological abnormalities are found during the clinical evaluation. The prevalence rises to 14.5% in 11- to 17-year-olds with communication disorders (CDC, 2012). Dysphagia, 33(1), 7682. Recommended practices follow a collaborative process that involves an interdisciplinary team, including the child, family, caregivers, and other related professionals. Please see ASHAs resource on alternative nutrition and hydration in dysphagia care for further information. When treatment incorporates accommodations, modifications, and supports in everyday settings, SLPs often provide training and education in how to use strategies to facilitate safe swallowing. Feeding, swallowing, and dysphagia are not specifically mentioned in IDEA; however, school districts must protect the health and safety of students with disabilities in the schools, including those with feeding and swallowing disorders. TTS may help to increase stimulation and sensation of the oral cavity by providing a sensory stimulus to the brain. move their head toward the spoon and then open their mouth. the infants ability to come into and maintain awake states and to coordinate breathing with sucking and swallowing (McCain, 1997) as well as. Accommodating children with disabilities in the school meal programs: Guidance for school food service professionals. Experience in adult swallowing disorders does not qualify an individual to provide swallowing assessment and intervention for children. SLPs provide assessment and treatment to the student as well as education to parents, teachers, and other professionals who work with the student daily. This study is aimed to investigate whether thermal oral (tongue) stimulation can modulate the cortico-pharyngeal neural motor pathway in humans. A thermal stimulus was applied to the left thenar eminence of the hand, corresponding to dermatome C6. https://doi.org/10.1044/leader.FTRI.18022013.42, Sharp, W. G., Berry, R. C., McCracken, C., Nuhu, N. N., Marvel, E., Saulnier, C. A., Klin, A., Jones, W., & Jaquess, D. L. (2013). IDEA protects the rights of students with disabilities and ensures free appropriate public education. ARFID rates are estimated to be as high as 5% in the general pediatric population and 1.5%13.8% in children between the ages of 8 and 18 years with suspected gastrointestinal problems or eating disorders (Eddy et al., 2015; Fisher et al., 2014; Norris et al., 2016). ASHA is strongly committed to evidence-based practice and urges members to consider the best available evidence before utilizing any product or technique. (2015). Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 61(11), 12491258. https://doi.org/10.5014/ajot.42.1.40, Homer, E. (2008). https://doi.org/10.1017/S0007114513002699, Lefton-Greif, M. A. SLPs do not diagnose or treat eating disorders such as bulimia, anorexia, and avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder; in the cases where these disorders are suspected, the SLP should refer to the appropriate behavioral health professional. 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. National Center for Health Statistics. See figures below. The space between the tongue and the palate increases, and the larynx and the hyoid bone lower, elongating and enlarging the pharynx (Logemann, 1998). data from monitoring devices (e.g., for patients in the neonatal intensive care unit [NICU]); nonverbal forms of communication (e.g., behavioral cues signaling feeding or swallowing problems); and. 0000023230 00000 n trailer <<2AADF4957C534E2585366F6E9BD5386B>]/Prev 440546/XRefStm 1525>> startxref 0 %%EOF 175 0 obj <>stream https://doi.org/10.1007/s10803-013-1771-5, Simpson, C., Schanler, R. J., & Lau, C. (2002). Periodic assessment and monitoring of significant changes are necessary to ensure ongoing swallow safety and adequate nutrition throughout adulthood. It may also improve the timing of oral feeding initiation (Simpson et al., 2002), increase rates of majority breastmilk enteral feeds compared to those who receive tube feeding of formula alone (Snyder et al., 2017), and allow for earlier attainment of full enteral feedings (Rodriguez & Caplan, 2015). The prevalence of swallowing dysfunction in children with laryngomalacia: A systematic review. This might involve decisions about whether the individual can safely eat an oral diet that meets nutritional needs, whether that diet needs to be modified in any way, and whether the individual needs compensatory strategies to eat the diet. World Health Organization. Communication disorders and use of intervention services among children aged 317 years: United States, 2012 [NCHS Data Brief No. Thermal-tactile stimulation (TTS) is a sensory technique whereby stimulation is provided to the anterior faucial pillars to speed up the pharyngeal swallow. Consider how long it takes to eat a meal, fear of eating, pleasure obtained from eating, social interactions while eating, and so on (Huckabee & Pelletier, 1999). Precautions, accommodations, and adaptations must be considered and implemented as students transition to postsecondary settings. Modifications to positioning are made as needed and are documented as part of the assessment findings. https://www.asha.org/policy/, American Speech-Language-Hearing Association. In all cases, the SLP must have an accurate understanding of the physiologic mechanism behind the feeding problems seen in this population. an assessment of behaviors that relate to the childs response to food. A prospective, longitudinal study of feeding skills in a cohort of babies with cleft conditions. Decisions regarding the initiation of oral feeding are based on recommendations from the medical and therapeutic team, with input from the parent and caregivers. American Journal of Occupational Therapy, 42(1), 4046. 0000018447 00000 n Infants under 6 months of age typically require head, neck, and trunk support. Consumers should use caution regarding the use of commercial, gum-based thickeners for infants of any age (Beal et al., 2012; U.S. Food and Drug Administration, 2017). The primary goals of feeding and swallowing intervention for children are to, Consistent with the WHOs (2001) International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) framework, goals are designed to.

Pediatric swallowing and feeding: Assessment and management. Cases of ARFID are reported to have a greater likelihood in males and children with gastrointestinal symptoms, a history of vomiting/choking, and a comorbid medical condition (Fisher et al., 2014). NNS involves allowing an infant to suck without taking milk, either at the breast (after milk has been expressed) or with the use of a pacifier. TTS should be combined with other swallowing exercises or alternated between such exercises. Feeding and eating disorders: DSM-5 Selections. 0000090013 00000 n The infants ability to turn the head and open the mouth (rooting) when stimulated on the lips or cheeks and to accept a pacifier into the mouth. Scope of practice in speech-language pathology [Scope of practice]. See, for example, Moreno-Villares (2014) and Thacker et al. Evaluation and treatment of swallowing disorders. Late onset necrotizing enterocolitis in infants following use of a xanthan gum-containing thickening agent. has had a recent choking incident and has required emergency care, is suspected of having aspirated food or liquid into the lungs, and/or. School districts that participate in the U.S. Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service Program in the schools, known as the National School Lunch Program, must follow regulations [see 7 C.F.R. (2014). Responsive feeders attempt to understand and read a childs cues for both hunger and satiety and respect those communication signals in infants, toddlers, and older children. Children who demonstrate aversive responses to stimulation may need approaches that reduce the level of sensory input initially, with incremental increases as the child demonstrates tolerance.
