The two most commonly used instrumental evaluations of swallowing for the pediatric population are. Language, Speech, and Hearing Services in Schools, 39(2), 177191. A feeding and swallowing plan addresses diet and environmental modifications and procedures to minimize aspiration risk and optimize nutrition and hydration. Oropharyngeal dysphagia and cerebral palsy. SLPs work with oral and pharyngeal implications of adaptive equipment. Silent aspiration: Who is at risk? Communication Skill Builders.

Journal of Clinical Gastroenterology, 30(1), 3446. Infants are obligate nasal breathers, and compromised breathing may result from the placement of a flexible endoscope in one nostril when a nasogastric tube is in place in the other nostril. 0000001525 00000 n TTS is used in patients with neurogenic dysphagia particularly associated with sensory deficits. SLPs treating preterm and medically fragile infants must be well versed in typical infant behavior and development so that they can recognize and interpret changes in behavior. As the child matures, the intraoral space increases as the mandible grows down and forward, and the oral cavity elongates in the vertical dimension. McComish, C., Brackett, K., Kelly, M., Hall, C., Wallace, S., & Powell, V. (2016). Communication disorders and use of intervention services among children aged 317 years: United States, 2012 [NCHS Data Brief No. The control group was given thermal-tactile stimulation treatment only, while in the experimental group neuromuscular electrical stimulation and thermal-tactile stimulation treatments were applied simultaneously. The infants compression and suction strength. A. C., Breugem, C. C., van der Heul, A. M. B., Eijkemans, M. J. C., Kon, M., & Mink van der Molen, A. Clinicians should discuss this with the medical team to determine options, including the temporary removal of the feeding tube and/or use of another means of swallowing assessment. https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nhis/index.htm, Davis-McFarland, E. (2008). The long-term consequences of feeding and swallowing disorders can include. For the child who is able to understand, the clinician explains the procedure, the purpose of the procedure, and the test environment in a developmentally appropriate manner. A feeding and swallowing plan may include but not be limited to. Oralmotor treatments include stimulation toor actions ofthe lips, jaw, tongue, soft palate, pharynx, larynx, and respiratory muscles. Responsive feedingLike cue-based feeding, responsive feeding focuses on the caregiver-and-child dynamic. This requires a working knowledge of breastfeeding strategies to facilitate safe and efficient swallowing and optimal nutrition. The assessment of bottle-feeding includes an evaluation of the, The assessment of spoon-feeding includes an evaluation of the optimal spoon type and the infants ability to, In addition to the areas of assessment noted above, the evaluation for toddlers (ages 13 years) and preschool/school-age children (ages 321 years) may include, Evaluation in the school setting includes children/adults from 3 to 21 years of age.

SLPs may collaborate with occupational therapists, considering that motor control for the use of this adaptive equipment is critical. Using this treatment, clinicians deliver electrical current through electrodes to stimulate peripheral nerves and evoke a muscle contraction. Available 8:30 a.m.5:00 p.m. (2008). Pediatric dysphagia. Any communication by the school team to an outside physician, facility, or individual requires signed parental consent. (2012). 128 48 Deep Pharyngeal Neuromuscular Stimulation (DPNS) is a therapeutic program that restores muscle strength and reflexes within the pharynx for better swallowing. Feeding skills of premature infants will be consistent with neurodevelopmental level rather than chronological age or adjusted age. For more information, see also Accommodating Children With Disabilities in the School Meal Programs: Guidance for School Food Service Professionals [PDF] (U.S. Department of Agriculture, 2017). In their role as communication specialists, SLPs monitor the infant for stress cues and teach parents and other caregivers to recognize and interpret the infants communication signals. If choosing to use electrical stimulation in the pediatric population, the primary focus should be on careful patient selection to ensure that electrical stimulation is being used only in situations where there is no possibility of inducing untoward effects. Clinicians may consider the following factors when assessing feeding and swallowing disorders in the pediatric population: As infants and children grow and develop, the absolute and relative size and shape of oral and pharyngeal structures change. Prevalence of DSM-5 avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder in a pediatric gastroenterology healthcare network. Examples of maneuvers include the following: Although sometimes referred to as the Masako maneuver, the Masako (or tongue-hold) is considered an exercise, not a maneuver. Experience in adult swallowing disorders does not qualify an individual to provide swallowing assessment and intervention for children. The effects of TTS on swallowing have not yet been investigated in IPD. See, for example, Moreno-Villares (2014) and Thacker et al. A physicians order to evaluate is typically not required in the school setting; however, it is best practice to collaborate with the students physician, particularly if the student is medically fragile or under the care of a physician. 0000009195 00000 n Scope of practice in speech-language pathology [Scope of practice]. Speech-language pathologists (SLPs) play a central role in the assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of infants and children with swallowing and feeding disorders. The NICU is considered an advanced practice area, and inexperienced SLPs should be aware that additional training and competencies may be necessary. https://doi.org/10.1097/JPN.0000000000000082, Seiverling, L., Towle, P., Hendy, H. M., & Pantelides, J. support safe and adequate nutrition and hydration; determine the optimum feeding methods and techniques to maximize swallowing safety and feeding efficiency; collaborate with family to incorporate dietary preferences; attain age-appropriate eating skills in the most normal setting and manner possible (i.e., eating meals with peers in the preschool, mealtime with the family); minimize the risk of pulmonary complications; prevent future feeding issues with positive feeding-related experiences to the extent possible, given the childs medical situation. 1400 et seq. Postural and positioning techniques involve adjusting the childs posture or position to establish central alignment and stability for safe feeding. 0000037200 00000 n Feeding and swallowing challenges can persist well into adolescence and adulthood. See the Assessment section of the Pediatric Feeding and Swallowing Evidence Map for pertinent scientific evidence, expert opinion, and client/caregiver perspective. Precautions, accommodations, and adaptations must be considered and implemented as students transition to postsecondary settings. Thermal tactile stimulation also, known as thermal application is one type of therapy used for the treatment of swallowing disorders. 0000057570 00000 n Number of all-listed diagnoses for sick newborn infants by sex and selected diagnostic categories [Data file]. No single posture will provide improvement to all individuals. DPNS has been shown to have a large effect on swallow function, quickly improving reflexive cough and improving vocal quality. A thermal stimulus was applied to the left thenar eminence of the hand, corresponding to dermatome C6. (Justus-Liebig University, protocol number 149/16 . Appropriate referrals to medical professionals should be made when anatomical or physiological abnormalities are found during the clinical evaluation. Arvedson, J. C., & Lefton-Greif, M. A. NS skills are assessed during breastfeeding and bottle-feeding if both modes are going to be used. The VFSS may be appropriate for a child who is currently NPO or has never eaten by mouth to determine whether the child has a functional swallow and which types of food they can manage. scintigraphy (which, in the pediatric population, may also be referred to as radionuclide milk scanning). The school SLP (or case manager) contacts the family to notify them of the school teams concerns. aspiration pneumonia and/or compromised pulmonary status; gastrointestinal complications, such as motility disorders, constipation, and diarrhea; rumination disorder (unintentional and reflexive regurgitation of undigested food that may involve re-chewing and re-swallowing of the food); an ongoing need for enteral (gastrointestinal) or parenteral (intravenous) nutrition; psychosocial effects on the child and their family; and. Transition times to oral feeding in premature infants with and without apnea. Some eating habits that appear to be a sign or symptom of a feeding disorder (e.g., avoiding certain foods or refusing to eat in front of others) may, in fact, be related to cultural differences in meal habits or may be symptoms of an eating disorder (National Eating Disorders Association, n.d.). NNS does not determine readiness to orally feed, but it is helpful for assessment. School districts that participate in the U.S. Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service Program in the schools, known as the National School Lunch Program, must follow regulations [see 7 C.F.R. Retrieved month, day, year, from www.asha.org/practice-portal/clinical-topics/pediatric-dysphagia/. The participants in the experimental group underwent five consecutive sessions of tactile-thermal stimulation for 30 minutes each time. Does the child have the potential to improve swallowing function with direct treatment? The effects of TTS on swallowing have not yet been investigated in IPD. . 0000032556 00000 n 0000023632 00000 n If a natural feeding process (e.g., position, caregiver involvement, and use of familiar foods) cannot be achieved, the results may not represent typical swallow function, and the study may need to be terminated, with results interpreted with caution. In these cases, intervention might consist of changes in the environment or indirect treatment approaches for improving safety and efficiency of feeding. Decisions are made based on the childs needs, their familys views and preferences, and the setting where services are provided. The infants ability to use both compression (positive pressure of the jaw and tongue on the pacifier) and suction (negative pressure created with tongue cupping and jaw movement). Gisel, E. G. (1988). Please see ASHAs resource on alternative nutrition and hydration in dysphagia care for further information. Postural changes differ between infants and older children. 0000017901 00000 n National Center for Health Statistics. SLPs develop and typically lead the school-based feeding and swallowing team. TTS may help to increase stimulation and sensation of the oral cavity by providing a sensory stimulus to the brain. The Laryngoscope, 128(8), 19521957. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.earlhumdev.2008.12.003.

Feeding strategies for children may include alternating bites of food with sips of liquid or swallowing 23 times per bite or sip. Administration of small amounts of maternal milk into the oral cavity of enteral tubedependent infants improves breastfeeding rates, growth, and immune-protective factors and reduces sepsis (Pados & Fuller, 2020). Families are encouraged to bring food and drink common to their household and utensils typically used by the child. Prevalence refers to the number of children who are living with feeding and swallowing problems in a given time period. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.pedneo.2017.04.003, Speyer, R., Cordier, R., Kim, J.-H., Cocks, N., Michou, E., & Wilkes-Gillan, S.

If certain practices are contraindicated, the clinician can work with the family to determine alternatives that allow the child to safely participate as fully as possible. Anxiety may be reduced by using distractions (e.g., videos), allowing the child to sit on the parents or the caregivers lap (for FEES procedures), and decreasing the number of observers in the room. They also provide information about the infants physiologic stability, which underlies the coordination of breathing and swallowing, and they guide the caregiver to intervene to support safe feeding. In addition to the clinical evaluation of infants noted above, breastfeeding assessment typically includes an evaluation of the. Clinical Oral Investigations, 18(5), 15071515. Electrical stimulation uses an electrical current to stimulate the peripheral nerve. Positioning for the VFSS depends on the size of the child and their medical condition (Arvedson & Lefton-Greif, 1998; Geyer et al., 1995). Little is known about the possible mechanisms by which this interventional therapy may work. Tube feeding includes alternative avenues of intake such as via a nasogastric tube, a transpyloric tube (placed in the duodenum or jejunum), or a gastrostomy tube (a gastronomy tube placed in the stomach or a gastronomyjejunostomy tube placed in the jejunum). For children with complex feeding problems, an interdisciplinary team approach is essential for individualized treatment (McComish et al., 2016). the caregivers behaviors while feeding their child.
