[ ] DYSPHAGIA SUITE & ONLINE CLASS RECORDING [BFE]
DYSPHAGIA SUITE & ONLINE LESSON RECORDING [BFE].
Developed by Catriona Steele, Ph.D., the software is based on the latest research from the Swallowing Rehabilitation Research Lab at the renowned Toronto Rehab Institute in Ontario, Canada. Dr. Steele has developed a standardized dysphagia treatment protocol that includes labored swallowing and Mendelsohn maneuvers for patients who have radiologically confirmed pharyngeal residue (i.e., incomplete removal of food or fluids from the pharynx during swallowing) associated with a recent stroke or acquired brain injury. Speech-language pathologists will find that the software allows them to apply the concepts of biofeedback training to dysphagia rehabilitation planning.
The software suite download includes 6 hours of recorded lessons (divided into four lessons). The content presented by Dr. Steele is intended to:
- Help newcomers to sEMG biofeedback understand how this tool has been used to help patients practice specific swallowing exercises in their rehabilitation programs.
- Guide the supervising clinician/technician in the successful implementation of a biofeedback training session (both hardware and software) and in the review and analysis of
Swallowing EMG Signals.
- Present case studies of four different clients, each with different problems, treated using SEMG biofeedback.
