New On Demand Webinar
Presenter(s): Hannah J Tahhan-Jackson, MS, CCC-SLP, BCS-S, IBCLC, CNT; Cheryl J Hersh, MA, CCC-SLP; Jonathan Walsh, MD
Credit(s): PDHs: 2.0, ASHA CEUs*: 0.2
Summary: This on demand webinar (available beginning September 21, 2024) will explore ankyloglossia (tongue-tie) in infants, focusing on its impact on feeding, speech, and overall oral function. The presenter will discuss the anatomy and physiology of ankyloglossia, evidence-based clinical assessment methods, as well as current trends and controversies surrounding its management. The course will emphasize an interdisciplinary approach to diagnosis and treatment, including the decision-making process for surgical intervention and post-operative care.

Summary: This session provides an overview of social determinants of health as they relate to maternal health and child feeding development across a variety of settings. Speakers present research findings on how maternal exposures (e.g., stress, environmental) and maternal factors (psychosocial) can influence sucking and feeding outcomes in infants. The session examines social determinants of health in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), home health/community, and outpatient settings for children birth to 3 years old.

Summary: Infants and young children with craniofacial differences are inherently at increased risk for feeding and swallowing challenges due to their anatomical variances, medical co-morbidities, and experiences with medical touch. This session explores functional interventions to maximize developmental feeding skills and swallowing safety in children from birth to 3 years old with a history of cleft lip, cleft palate, and/or craniofacial differences. The speaker discusses case studies from infancy and early intervention that utilize the pediatric feeding disorder criteria to guide differential diagnosis and develop an evidence-based functional intervention plan.

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.

Summary: This session describes the evidence to assist in answering questions like: Is a swallow that initiates in the pyriform sinuses "delayed" and the source of a child's impairment? Is coughing during a feed a clear sign of aspiration that warrants instrumental assessment and conservative management? What is the significance of stress cues during a feed?

Summary: The session explores clinical feeding assessment tools that are appropriate for use in various clinical settings with children from birth to 3 years of age with varying etiologies. The speaker discusses pros and cons of various assessment tools as well as the importance of incorporating functional measures into your assessment battery to help guide meaningful management goals.

Summary: This session discusses challenges for the future as a combination of art and science as well as highlights areas of consensus and controversy in the many facets of practice that encompass pediatric feeding and swallowing.
Presenter(s): Jenny E Reynolds, MS, CCC-SLP, CLC, CNT, BCS-S
Credit(s): PDHs: 1.0, ASHA CEUs*: 0.1
Summary: This session describes the value of interprofessional practice (IPP) on a pediatric FEES (flexible [or fiberoptic] endoscopic evaluation of swallowing) team. The presenter shares FEES case studies that illustrate this collaborative model for dysphagia management; describes the successes and challenges encountered by the IPP team during pediatric FEES; and reviews current FEES literature in the pediatric population.

Summary: This session shares effective strategies for SLPs working with infants whose parents' goal is direct breastfeeding. The session aims to equip SLPs to support families in a safe transition to direct breastfeeding by sharing tools for at-breast assessment and flow-rate modification.
