Oral stage | Tongue elevates and propels bolus posteriorly (motor), tongue contacts velum to protect nasal passages (sensorimotor) , tactile stimulation of swallow reflex under voluntary control (sensory). |
Pharyngeal stage | Swallow reflex, pharyngeal peristlasis, larynx closes, tongue tip retracts and lowers, Velum elevates (to seal off the nasopharynx to prevent nasal regurgitation) |
Organic voice etiologies | caused by some physical condition that has impacted the structure and/or function of the larynx. |
Functional voice etiologies | result of particular compensatory behaviors a person is doing, or a reaction to some traumatic event. Mass and tension changes of TVCs cause change in pitch, loudness, effort. |

Degenerative/cognitive conditions | Dementia, Parkinson's, cognitive impairment |
Neurologic conditions | Stroke, TBI, Cerebral Palsy, brain damage, brainstem damage, pharyngeal dysphagia (subcortical) |
Immunologic conditions | Multiple Sclerosis, |
