This weeks word:
Mendelsohn 🎤😑👅

When you start to swallow and your adam’s apple rises, try to
hold before dropping down.

This week's word is... Videofluoroscopy!

This refers to an assessment via x-ray; SLTs can identify swallow impairments and occurrences of aspiration. It can also support the development of rehabilitation plans targeted to improve the swallow function.
