Date Positioning may not be optimal. 20 Assessment of dysphagia 2.Flexible endoscopic evaluation of swallowing () Procedure: The laryngoscope is passed through the nose to a point just above the epiglottis to observe hypopharynx and larynx while the patient is taking food. The procedure is video recorded for later analysis. - It’s a portable device and can be performed at bedside. Some considerations: The pt. must be able to follow simple commands. A small amount of anesthesia can be used if the pt. is sensitive to the scope. Use dye (green/blue) with the food to track the bolus and any residues. Date 21 Assessment of dysphagia 2.Flexible endoscopic evaluation of swallowing () Three main problems can be detected by : 1- inability to initiate the swallow in a timely and coordinated manner 2- inadequate airway protection or VP (velopharyngeal) closure during the swallow 3-incomplete bolus clearance The problems that can be observed Spillage before the swallow Residue after swallow Laryngeal penetration Aspiration Date 22 Assessment of dysphagia 2.Flexible endoscopic evaluation of swallowing () Date 23 Assessment of dysphagia 2.Flexible endoscopic evaluation of swallowing (______) Limitations of ______: Inability to visualize the oral or the esophageal phase of swallowing. Limited ability to visualize the pharyngeal phase.
