Objectives
[+] [-] 072970 - Managing Dysphagia: Essential Assessment, Diagnosis & Treatment Strategies
  1. Identify the foundation for dysphagia treatment by understanding the nature of the swallow disorder(s).
  2. Distinguish between structural and functional esophageal dysphagia disorders and discuss treatment interventions.
  3. Identify specific neuromuscular disorders that correspond with oral, pharyngeal and esophageal dysphagia.
  4. Specify step-by-step directions for all compensatory strategies, postural adjustments, maneuvers and exercises with explanation of purpose and rationale for function.
  5. Identify risk factors for aspiration pneumonia and the substantial role of oral hygiene.
  6. Discuss the pharmacological impacts of medications on dysphagia and common symptoms of Adverse Drug Reactions.
  7. Identify the characteristics of the "Aging Swallow" and the altering physiological changes that place the elderly at risk for life threatening pneumonias.
  8. Discuss explicit assessments and treatments for respiratory and pulmonary functions related to dysphagia.
  9. Generate patient-centered goals and skilled document notes for specifically-identified dysphagia disorders, meeting Medicare guidelines.
