Establishing a foundation for optimal feeding outcomes in the NICU. The school-based SLP and the school team (OT, PT, and school nurse) conduct the evaluation, which includes observation of the student eating a typical meal or snack. Therapy for children with swallowing disorders in the educational setting. Thermal tactile stimulation also, known as thermal application is one type of therapy used for the treatment of swallowing disorders. Early provision of oropharyngeal colostrum leads to sustained breast milk feedings in preterm infants. The primary goals of feeding and swallowing intervention for children are to, Consistent with the WHOs (2001) International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) framework, goals are designed to. Understanding adult anatomy and physiology of the swallow provides a basis for understanding dysphagia in children, but SLPs require knowledge and skills specific to pediatric populations.

(2013b, February 1). Intraoral appliances (e.g., palatal plates) are removable devices with small knobs that provide tactile stimulation inside the mouth to encourage lip closure and appropriate lip and tongue position for improved functional feeding skills. 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. Please see Clinical Evaluation: Schools section below for further details. When conducting an instrumental evaluation, SLPs should consider the following: Procedures take place in a child-friendly environment with toys, visual distracters, rewards, and a familiar caregiver, if possible and when appropriate. When the quality of feeding takes priority over the quantity ingested, the infant can set the pace of feeding and have more opportunity to enjoy the experience of feeding. https://doi.org/10.1097/JPN.0000000000000082, Seiverling, L., Towle, P., Hendy, H.

Introduction | EBRSR - Evidence-Based Review of Stroke Rehabilitation Disruptions in swallowing may occur in any or all phases of swallowing. SLPs may collaborate with occupational therapists, considering that motor control for the use of this adaptive equipment is critical. Recent clinical practice survey data have supported the fact that clinicians continue to use thermo-tactile stimulation (TTS) as a strategy to stimulate key nerve pathways and evoke a swallow reflex for patients with a delayed or absent swallow reflex. The Journal of Pediatrics, 161(2), 354356. NNS patterns can typically be evaluated with skilled observation and without the use of instrumental assessment. complex medical conditions (e.g., heart disease, pulmonary disease, allergies, gastroesophageal reflux disease [GERD], delayed gastric emptying); factors affecting neuromuscular coordination (e.g., prematurity, low birth weight, hypotonia, hypertonia); medication side effects (e.g., lethargy, decreased appetite); sensory issues as a primary cause or secondary to limited food availability in early development (Beckett et al., 2002; Johnson & Dole, 1999); structural abnormalities (e.g., cleft lip and/or palate and other craniofacial abnormalities, laryngomalacia, tracheoesophageal fistula, esophageal atresia, choanal atresia, restrictive tethered oral tissues); educating families of children at risk for pediatric feeding and swallowing disorders; educating other professionals on the needs of children with feeding and swallowing disorders and the role of SLPs in diagnosis and management; conducting a comprehensive assessment, including clinical and instrumental evaluations as appropriate; considering culture as it pertains to food choices/habits, perception of disabilities, and beliefs about intervention (Davis-McFarland, 2008); diagnosing pediatric oral and pharyngeal swallowing disorders (dysphagia); recognizing signs of avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID) and making appropriate referrals with collaborative treatment as needed; referring the patient to other professionals as needed to rule out other conditions, determine etiology, and facilitate patient access to comprehensive services; recommending a safe swallowing and feeding plan for the individualized family service plan (IFSP), individualized education program (IEP), or 504 plan; educating children and their families to prevent complications related to feeding and swallowing disorders; serving as an integral member of an interdisciplinary feeding and swallowing team; consulting and collaborating with other professionals, family members, caregivers, and others to facilitate program development and to provide supervision, evaluation, and/or expert testimony, as appropriate (see ASHAs resources on, remaining informed of research in the area of pediatric feeding and swallowing disorders while helping to advance the knowledge base related to the nature and treatment of these disorders; and. 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). Additional Resources As indicated in the ASHA Code of Ethics (ASHA, 2016a), SLPs who serve a pediatric population should be educated and appropriately trained to do so. A thermal stimulus was applied to the left thenar eminence of the hand, corresponding to dermatome C6. (2000). NS skills are assessed during breastfeeding and bottle-feeding if both modes are going to be used. scintigraphy (which, in the pediatric population, may also be referred to as radionuclide milk scanning). 0000088800 00000 n Questions to ask when developing an appropriate treatment plan within the ICF framework include the following. Although thermal perception is a haptic modality, it has received scant attention possibly because humans process thermal properties of objects slower than other tactile properties. Feeding skills of premature infants will be consistent with neurodevelopmental level rather than chronological age or adjusted age. Referrals may be made to dental professionals for assessment and fitting of these devices. Dysphagia in children with severe generalized cerebral palsy and intellectual disability.

Electrical stimulation uses an electrical current to stimulate the peripheral nerve. Strategies that slow the feeding rate may allow for more time between swallows to clear the bolus and may support more timely breaths. When treatment incorporates accommodations, modifications, and supports in everyday settings, SLPs often provide training and education in how to use strategies to facilitate safe swallowing. Other benefits of KMC include temperature regulation, promotion of breastfeeding, parental empowerment and bonding, stimulation of lactation, and oral stimulation for the promotion of oral feeding ability. Anatomical, functional, physiological and behavioural aspects of the development of mastication in early childhood. Feeding and gastrointestinal problems in children with cerebral palsy. Therapeutic learning is the motor learning process in which target behavior is achieved by utilizing activity-dependent elements and the assistive system. According to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (5th ed. Cue-based feeding in the NICU: Using the infants communication as a guide. The plan includes a protocol for response in the event of a student health emergency (Homer, 2008). Singular. Pediatric Pulmonology, 41(11), 10401048. A clinical evaluation of swallowing and feeding is the first step in determining the presence or absence of a swallowing disorder. Dycem to prevent plates and cups from sliding. 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. https://doi.org/10.5014/ajot.42.1.40, Homer, E. (2008). 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. SLPs develop and typically lead the school-based feeding and swallowing team. Does the child have the potential to improve swallowing function with direct treatment? Positioning limitations and abilities (e.g., children who use a wheelchair) may affect intake and respiration. KMCskin-to-skin contact between a mother and her newborn infantcan be an important factor in helping the infant achieve readiness for oral feeding, particularly breastfeeding. Format refers to the structure of the treatment session (e.g., group and/or individual). The school-based feeding and swallowing team consists of parents and professionals within the school as well as professionals outside the school (e.g., physicians, dietitians, and psychologists). The decision to use a VFSS is made with consideration for the childs responsiveness (e.g., acceptance of oral stimulation or tastes on the lips without signs of distress) and the potential for medical complications. The clinical evaluation typically begins with a case history based on a comprehensive review of medical/clinical records and interviews with the family and health care professionals. 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). Instrumental assessments can help provide specific information about anatomy and physiology otherwise not accessible by noninstrumental evaluation. .
