Dysphagia 3

Assessment

QuestionAnswer
3 Major Components of CSE 1. medical history 2. physical examination of the swallowing mechanism (OME) 3. test swallows
Purposes of CSE - determines presence of dysphagia but does not disprove or prove aspiration - gives insight to anatomical and physiological factors - relative complication risks - alternate means of management - additional tests needed
Relative Complication Risks of Dysphagia - aspiration - dehydration - malnutrition - loss of enjoyment
6 Reasons for CSE 1. determine potential cause 2. develop a working hypothesis 3. tentative treatment plan 4. develop further questions 5. is the pt ready for treatment? 6. instrumental eval?
Outcomes of CSE - determine underlying neuromuscular function - onset, progression pattern, symptoms/signs - influencing factors - monitor progression - estimate prognosis - estimate long-term outcomes
Limitations of CSE - lack of methods for scoring - inconsistencies in observations - complete information not provided - aspiration/penetration cannot be viewed - only one moment in time
Additional Factors to Monitor/Consider - heart rate - pulse oximetry (oxygen is bound to hemoglobin) - respiration
Signs and Symptoms of Hypoventilation - fatigue - hallucinations - lethargy - disturbed sleep - depression - reduced appetite
Signs - objective - clinical measures/observations of behaviours during an exam
Symptoms - subjective - patient-reported change in bodily functions or sensations
Pulmonary Defence Risk Factors for Pneumonia - oral hygiene - loss of anatomical defences - blunted airway reflexes - impaired mucocillary clearance - weakened immune system
Chart Review 1. current hospital status 2. Hx and nature of the problem 3. medical conditions 4. medications 5. airway device hx? 6. hx and current nutrition status
Interview Questions - when did it start - how did it progress - what foods/liquids cause issues - do things get stuck - pain? - food allergies? - baseline diet - health history
Observations during Ax - LOA/mental status/behaviour - affect - nutritional state - motor speech - lang - independence - hydration - medical/health aids
General Physical Findings - respiration - speech/voice - mobility - upper extremity function - visual and auditory systems - muscle and bodily stability - coordination
More Observations - positioning - alertness - speech & lang - attention to the task - desire to eat - agitation
Oral Phase Observations - adequacy of chewing - oral clearance/residue - duration of the oral phase - endurance/fatigue - manner of feeding - behaviours during feeding - pocketing - premature spillage
Pharyngeal Phase Observations** - signs of airway compromise - vocal quality (before and after the swallow) - weakness (unilateral often) - decreased strength of pharyngeal constriction - residue - decreased hyolaryngeal elevation - delayed initiation d/t decreased sensation
Signs of Airway Compromise - post swallow expiration - airway congestion - coughing/throat clearing - change in breathing pattern - shortness of breath post swallow - increased resp rate - wheezing
Vocal Quality (Before and After Swallow) - wetness? - difficulty clearing secretions? - dry? - endurance or fatigue over time
Esophageal Phase Observations ** - effortful, repeated swallows - regurgitation - pt report globus sensation - reflux - increased transition time
PO for CSE - ice chips - water - nectar thick liquids or thickening agent - purees - mixed consistency (fruit cup) - dry solids (graham cracker/cookies)
Objectives for MBSS - evaluate anatomy and physiology - ID pattern of impaired physiology - ID consequences - evaluate the effect of compensatory strategies - confirm pt symptoms - make predictions
MBSS MUST - CSE fails to address the clinical questions presented by pt or symptoms - dysphagia characteristics are vague - respiration compromise - underlying medical problems - results required to set clinical course **
MBSS MAYBE - direction of swallow rehab - high risk of aspiration due to pre-existing med dx - swallowing demonstrates an overt change - status fluctuates
MBSS NO - pt is in a fragile condition - pt won't fit into the machine - pt is not likely to cooperate - clinical judgement is such that the results will not alter clinical course*
FEES MUST - CSE fails to address the clinical questions presented by pt or symptoms - dysphagia characteristics are vague but esophageal issues are not detected - results are required to set clinical course - MBSS is not an option
FEES NO - blood range doesn't permit - nasal fractures/complex facial features - pt is agitated - pt has a CSF leak
OME V Trigeminal - touch different parts of face - open jaw and resist - move jaw side to side
OME VII Facial - raise eyebrows - close eyes tightly - puff out cheeks - purse out your lips - smile - put lips around a straw
OME X Vagus - voliltional cough - stick out your tongue and say "ahhhhh" and then ah-ah-ah - palpitate the swallow
OME XII Hypoglossal - stick tongue out - move tongue up and down - move tongue side-to-side - press tongue against the side of your cheek - sweep teeth with tongue
