The ability to swallow safely is paramount in the care and management of dysphagic patients. Clinicians must therefore understand how a normal swallow occurs. Dysphagia describes the process in depth, and discusses variations in swallowing related to age and what it is that is being swallowed.
Dysphagia: Foundation, Theory and Practice provides the latest coverage of the core areas of dysphagia, including respiration, saliva management, normal variations of the normal swallow and a medical perspective on managing both children and adults with dysphagia. Written by acknowledged researchers and clinicians, it provides readers with full details of available assessment and treatment techniques including tracheostomy, FEES, cervical auscultation and pulse oximetry.

_ Show how theory can be realistically integrated into clinical practice.
_ Give the benefits of outcome measurement in dysphagia.
_ Highlight the importance of measurement of thickened fluids.
_ Include a dedicated chapter on 'developmental disability and swallowing disorders in adults' - this is a first.
_ Cover assessment, treatment and management of both paediatric and adult populations in depth.
Dysphagia: Foundation, Theory and Practice will be of great benefitto speech pathologists, whose role in dysphagia is widely recognised and respected and other health professionals who have a role in managing individuals with swallowing disorders. It is an excellent reference book and lifetime purchase with relevance to both the student and the professional.
