To all my fellow SLTs who spend hours making up words, sentences & paragraphs for therapy: welcome to the world of AI! Within 30 secs this app (Nova) has been able to give us 20 sentences on F1, 3 paragraphs on Scottish Football and 20 Q/A's on Abba! Game changer #mySLTday @RCSLT

@Kerry1Corley Amazing idea Kerry!

It is common practice to assume that cerebral stroke causes muscular weakness in swallowing and that strength based exercises help fix it. This makes no sense from a theoretical physiological perspective or from what is often seen on fluoro. Here’s why (a thread) #FOAMed

[UK Health Security Agency @UKHSA]

Today we're relaunching our #stroke awareness campaign, reminding people of the symptoms of stroke and the importance of urgent action.

When a stroke strikes #ActFAST: check their Face, Arms & Speech.

If you notice any one of these signs, it's Time to call 999.

Starting to see more post-extubation Covid+ patients coming our way now. Most of which have spent on average 3 weeks intubated on ICU. Going to be interesting to monitor their swallow and voice rehabilitation journeys. #mySLTday #covid19 #ICURehab

Me and my colleagues have found it difficult to complete oromotor/cranial nerve exams with surgical masks on, as it takes away the ability to model the instructions we give to patients. So we decided to make a new (cleanable) visual - with yours truly as a the model! #mysltday

Based on the available evidence, #dysphagia assessment should be considered an #AGP, says expert
