Question
Answer
Labial seal is key to the success of this phase   oral prep.  
🗑
This stage ends with the occurrence of an involuntary reflex   oral  
🗑
If this phase increases beyond its typical "less than one second" criterion, the risk of aspiration is greatly increased   pharyngeal  
🗑
This phase consists of four synchronized physiological actions   pharyngeal  
🗑
This phase has the goal of creating a cohesive bolus   oral prep.  
🗑
Relaxation of the cricopharyngeus muscle occurs at what phase   pharyngeal  
🗑
labial seal is key to the success of this phase   oral prep  
🗑
velar elevation, pharyngeal parystalsis and laryngeal elevation and cricopharyngeal (UES) opening are the four synchronized actions during the esophageal phase T/F   False. Velar elevation, pharyngeal parystalsis and laryngeal elevation and cricopharyngeal (UES) opening are the four synchronized actions during the PHARYNGEAL phase  
🗑
This phase is characterized by tongue elevation to the hard palate from anterior to posterior movement pattern   oral  
🗑
Rotary movement of tongue is most common in what phase?   oral prep.  
🗑
larynx and pharynx are at rest during this phase leaving airway open for breathing   oral prep. and esophageal  
🗑
Breathing stops during   oral and pharyngeal phase  
🗑
This phase is disordered if it takes longer then 20 seconds to occur   esophageal  
🗑
Phases characterized by paristaltic action mediated by CN X-Vagus   esophageal Could also be pharyngeal because CN X does innervate constrictor muscles.  
🗑
The bolus divides appropriately in this phase   pharyngeal Bolus travels to UES via lateral channels, goes around sides of the epiglottis. Meets again at cricopharyngeus.  
🗑
Decreased laryngeal elevation is likely to cause aspiration or penetration in what phase   pharyngeal  
🗑
A spastic cricopharyngeus muscle is likely to interfere with this phase   esophageal and pharyngeal, esophageal because we won't get bolus in. UES opening is also sign of pharyngeal phase.  
🗑
This phase will be most susceptible to disorder from disruption in the smooth motion that characterizes this phase.   oral  
🗑
Coordinated and anterior tongue motion is most important in this phase   oral  
🗑
chest pain is symptom of this phase   esophageal, air bubbles in esophagus can cause pain as well as muscle spasms  
🗑
Decreased salivation would affect this phase most   oral prep  
🗑
Abnormal epiglottic function will cause disruption of this phase, primarily   pharyngeal  
🗑
decreased laryngeal closure indicates disorder in this phase   pharyngeal  
🗑
premature spilling of bolus from oral cavity due to disordered velopharyngeal movement during this phase   oral prep During oral prep velum causes posterior barrier by lowering velum often making complete contact with tongue base.  
🗑
Inappropriate biting of the cheeks is an indicator of disorder of this phase   oral prep, happens when buccal (cheek) muscle loses tongue due to neurology or surgery.  
🗑
Nasal regurgitation is a symptom of disorder in this phase   pharyngeal (this is when velum is supposed to lift) then parastaltic action will push bolus up.  
🗑
A Zenker's diverticulum is most likely to affect this phase   esophageal  
🗑
Decreased tongue base retraction is typically going to be a symptom of dysphagia in this phase   pharyngeal, when laryngeal elevation occurs tongue pushes posteriorly and cleans out vallecula-tongue base sweeps posteriorly over epiglottis  
🗑
Vallecula residue is often sign of weak tongue base. True/False   True, during phrayngeal phase when laryngeal elevation occurs, the tongue pushes posteriorly and cleans out vallecula-tongue base sweeps posteriorly over epiglottis  
🗑
Aspiration occurs most often due to disorder of what phase   pharyngeal, the most susceptible to aspiration  
🗑
abnormal hold positions are disorders of this phase   oral prep  
🗑
limited mandibular movement are disorders of this phase   oral prep  
🗑
4 major muscles of mastication   temporalis, masseter, internal and external pterygoids  
🗑
Coating of the pharyngeal wall after swallow is disorder of what phase   pharyngeal, caused by lack of pharyngeal parystalsis  
🗑
Pyriform sinus residue is disorder of what phase   pharyngeal, because of lack of laryngeal elevation that tips and empties  
🗑
reflux affects what phase most   esophageal, can slow esophageal phase, can cause pain  
🗑
Incomplete tongue to palate contact affects what phase most   oral  
🗑
Inability to make bolus affects what stage   oral prep  
🗑
lack of teeth affects what stage   oral prep  
🗑
disturbed parystaltic (squeezing) action of tongue affects what stage   oral  
🗑
Parystaltic wave is created when you swallow T/F?   T, parystaltic wave can be measured from mouth all the way to the anus, swallowing creates movement in the intestines  
🗑
Increased duration of time to complete this phase are likely to cause aspiration or penetration BEFORE the swallow   oral  
🗑
Aspiration during the swallow is most likely caused during what phase   Pharyngeal  
🗑
Aspiration after the swallow is most likely caused during what phase   esophageal  
🗑
Piecemeal deglutition may be sign of premature occurrence of this phase   pharyngeal, can also be sign of apraxia (incordination)  
🗑
deglutition is another word for   swallowing  
🗑
Increased residue of pharynx   pharyngeal  
🗑
retraction and elevation of velum must occur during this phase   pharyngeal  
🗑
occurs with relaxation of cricopharyngeus   esophageal  
🗑
This phase ends with closing of distal sphincter   esophageal- Distal sphincter (lower esophageal sphincter)  
🗑
This phase begins at anterior faucial pillars   pharyngeal, can also begin as far back as vallecula  
🗑
This stage contains pharyngeal paristalsis   pharyngeal  
🗑
This phase contains stripping action   oral  
🗑
Three valves of vocal tract must provide airway closure during   pharyngeal  
🗑
metacognitive decision making processes are most active during this phase   oral prep  
🗑
It is not appropriate to have an open airway during this phase   pharyngeal  
🗑
A moment of apnea occurs during this phase   pharyngeal  
🗑
This phase requires the bolus to remain midline   oral  
🗑
This phase requires intact masseter and temporalis function   oral prep  
🗑
This phase is most likely to demonstrate defecits of velopharyngeal function   pharyngeal phase  
🗑
This phase most likely improves when downgraded to thick or thin liquids   esophageal phase  
🗑
This phase relies the most on cranial nerve XII   oral phase  
🗑
Relaxation of UES is hallmark of this phase   Pharyngeal  
🗑
Tongue to hard palate contact is critical for this phase   oral  
🗑
altering an eating utensil or cup is most likely to affect this phase   oral prep  
🗑
Retroflection of the epiglottis is typically seen during this phase   pharyngeal  
🗑
T/F. Upper Motor Neuron disorders are know to cause flacid muscle responses   False. Upper motor neuron disorders are know to cause SPASTIC motor disorders, lower motor neuron disorders cause flacid musle repoonse.  
🗑
