Presenter(s): Debra M. Suiter, PhD, CCC-SLP, BCS-S
Credit(s): PDHs: 2.5, ASHA CEUs*: 0.25
Summary: This course illustrates how SLPs can develop appropriate, evidence-based, and practical treatment plans for patients with dysphagia based on the results of instrumental swallow assessments. The speaker discusses case studies involving the use of various assessments, including videofluoroscopy, endoscopy, and high-resolution manometry.
Presenter(s): Sarah Wallace, OBE, BSc, PGDip FRCSLT
Credit(s): PDHs: 1.0, ASHA CEUs*: 0.1
Summary: This session discusses the vital role SLPs who work in adult ICUs play in detection and management of voice, swallowing, and airway complications following COVID-19. The speaker discusses the nature of these complications; intubation, tracheostomy, and COVID-19 features; factors to guide early treatments; and how these factors shape decision-making in post-ICU settings.
Presenter(s): Catriona M Steele, PhD, CCC-SLP
Credit(s): PDHs: 1.0, ASHA CEUs*: 0.1
Summary: SLPs who work with people with dysphagia face the challenge of identifying food textures and liquid consistencies that will optimize swallowing safety and efficiency while minimizing negative consequences on quality of life and nutrition. This session features case-based opportunities to practice the skills involved in determining when and how texture modification can be used to improve swallowing outcomes.

Summary: The application of multiple swallow maneuvers is often a mainstay of dysphagia intervention, but the role of the maneuver and its effect on swallow rehabilitation outcomes are not always clear. This session explores swallowing intervention beyond the application of maneuvers and reviews the role of motor learning strategies in maximizing outcomes for patients.
Presenter(s): Laura B Brooks, MEd, CCC-SLP, BCS-S
Credit(s): PDHs: 1.0, ASHA CEUs*: 0.1
Summary: Clinicians working with infants and young children need to understand how the oral, pharyngeal, and esophageal phases of swallowing impact feeding. This session focuses on disorders that impact the esophageal phase of swallowing, and how the clinician can identify and help manage these disorders.
Presenter(s): Maureen A Lefton-Greif, PhD, CCC-SLP, BCS-S; Bonnie J Martin-Harris, PhD, CCC-SLP, BCS-S
Credit(s): PDHs: 1.0, ASHA CEUs*: 0.1
Summary: This session explores the practical impact of standardization and how it can be applied to address common questions, as well as the how the BabyVFSSImP measurement tool holds potential for elevating the standard of care for babies with oropharyngeal dysphagia.
Presenter(s): Alyson Paige Ware, MS, CCC-SLP, CLC; Casey Manning Lewis, MS, CCC-SLP, CNT, CLC, NTMTC; Rebecca Frances Smith, MS, CCC-SLP, CNT, CLC, BCS-S

Summary: This session discusses advocacy in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) and early intervention, as well as involvement in professional organizations. Presenters share examples of common issues across the continuum of care and solutions to these challenges through advocacy.
Presenter(s): Kimberly M Morris, MS, CCC-SLP, BCS-S, IBCLC; Louisa N Ferrara, PhD, CCC-SLP, BCS-S, CNT, NTMCT

Summary: Medically complex neonates often face many challenges as they learn to feed and along the path of transitioning from tube to oral feedings. One of the most perplexing is how to progress oral feedings while the infant is still receiving positive pressure support for respiratory needs. This session explores different approaches to this challenge based on literature, clinical expertise, and multidisciplinary frameworks.
Presenter(s): Memorie M Gosa, PhD, CCC-SLP, BCS-S

Summary: Diet texture modification-specifically, thickening of liquid consistencies-is often recommended to compensate for dysphagia in pediatric populations due to their physical and cognitive immaturity. This session discusses the evidence in support of this popular management recommendation and explores the many variables that can impact its effectiveness. The speaker presents strategies that SLPs can implement in their clinical practice to mitigate undesirable consequences of texture modification in the pediatric population.
