These Perspectives (SIG 13) articles discuss the use of high-resolution pharyngeal manometry in the assessment and treatment of dysphagia in pediatrics and adults. Additionally, we present an educational piece discussing considerations in clinical decision-making concerning the initiation of safe oral alimentation in patients on high-flow nasal cannula.
Learning Outcomes
You will be able to:
implement guidelines for the assessment of swallow
function high-resolution manometry (HRM) protocols
discuss management options for dysphagia in adults using HRM facilitated biofeedback therapy
identify swallowing metrics and measures that can be obtained using HRM
list considerations for initiation of oral intake in patients using high-flow nasal cannula
