Summary: This course provides an overview of the essential elements of planning and implementing successful dysphagia intervention. The speaker reviews how to select and utilize appropriate treatment strategies and techniques by summarizing specific compensatory, bolus modification, postural, and rehabilitation strategies for oral and pharyngeal dysphagia and discussing the evidence underlying these strategies. The course also reviews what variations in dysphagia management might be needed depending on particular disease stages and processes.

Summary: The quality of online medical information can conflict with evidence-based research. Tinnitus is a target for misinformation and bogus treatments due to its prevalence and lack of objective treatments. This presentation discusses a study that assessed how people with and without tinnitus respond to online misinformation regarding tinnitus and determined whether a counseling session regarding causes and management of tinnitus affected susceptibility to misinformation. This course was presented and recorded at the 2019 ASHA Convention.
Presenter(s): Kellyn Dailey Hall, PhD, CCC-SLP; Leslie W Johnson, PhD, CCC-SLP

Summary: This session explores how health disparities impact dysphagia management and associated outcomes. The speakers present tools and strategies SLPs can use to improve their cultural responsiveness and adopt an inclusive mindset in their approach to patient-centered care for patients with dysphagia.

Summary: This session—a recorded session from ASHA’s 2020 Health Care Connect online conference—examines the SLP’s role on patient-centered care teams in the ICU setting. The speaker discusses the SLP’s vital role in facilitating communication for patients who are intubated, and participants will have the opportunity to practice communicating with various techniques in different roles. The speaker also explores when to screen/assess swallowing post-extubation and how to reduce post-intensive care syndrome (PICS). The session also addresses the importance of communication regarding patient status and goals across the continuum of care, and how to provide bundled patient-centered care using a team approach.
Presenter(s): Kendrea L. (Focht) Garand, PhD, CScD, CCC-SLP, BCS-S, CBIS, CCRE
Credit(s): PDHs: 2.0, ASHA CEUs*: 0.2
Summary: This session—a recorded session from ASHA’s 2020 Health Care Connect online conference—explores the power of a comprehensive cranial nerve assessment as part of a swallow examination. The speaker discusses neuroanatomy and neurophysiology of the cranial nerves and shares a step-by-step procedure for performing a cranial nerve assessment, including identification of common abnormalities and how to document findings.
Presenter(s): Marianne E. Gellert-Jones, MA, CCC-SLP
Credit(s): PDHs: 1.5, ASHA CEUs*: 0.15
Summary: This session—a recorded session from ASHA’s 2020 Schools Connect conference—explores how to use the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) framework to develop comprehensive feeding support and caregiver training plans for children with complex medical needs. The speaker discusses the multifaceted impact medical complexities have on oral feeding and how the ICF framework can influence the assessment of a child’s feeding needs.
Presenter(s): Emily M Homer, MA, CCC-SLP
Credit(s): PDHs: 1.5, ASHA CEUs*: 0.15
Summary: SLPs are increasingly responsible for identifying and treating students with swallowing and feeding concerns, leading to questions like: What are the tasks that must be addressed? What service delivery model should be used? Given challenges like the COVID-19 pandemic, is telepractice an option? How can it fit into my workload schedule? This session from ASHA's 2021 Schools Connect online conference reviews the essential steps for addressing swallowing and feeding, the barriers and solutions to obstacles, and the role of telepractice in achieving the goal of safe and efficient mealtimes for students.

Credit(s): PDHs: 0.5, ASHA CEUs*: 0.05
Summary: This course presents a project that investigated the effect of lower temporal resolutions on assessment of videofluoroscopic evaluation of swallowing (VFES) in adult and infant populations.
Presenter(s): Catherine Turk, PhD, CCC-SLP; Christina Rappazzo, MA, CCC-SLP, BCS-S
Credit(s): PDHs: 1.5, ASHA CEUs*: 0.15
Summary: This session—a recorded session from ASHA’s 2020 Health Care Connect online conference—provides an overview of prevalent genetic disorders with an emphasis on pediatric feeding and swallowing complications. The speakers highlight currently available research and review best practices in assessment and intervention, including the use of videofluoroscopic swallow studies to underscore common swallowing deficits.
Presenter(s): Kate Hutcheson, PhD, CCC-SLP, BSC-S; Katherine Connelly MA, CCC-SLP
Credit(s): PDHs: 1.5, ASHA CEUs*: 0.15
Summary: This session—a recorded session from ASHA’s 2020 Health Care Connect online conference—discusses cancer basics, treatment options, and their functional impacts as they relate to swallowing and cognitive-communication. The speakers discuss common referrals in acute care oncology settings and describe an algorithm for clinical decision-making.
