A great 3 days @ISCoSmeetings & opportunity to share our work re the value of SLT in SCI ➡️ dedicated & expert input helps restore verbal communication & ability to eat & drink @MWLNHS_Research@MWLNHS@NWRSIC
@CharissaZaga@drjackiem@Krill_k8@NTSP_UK@RCSLTTracheCEN @DysphagiaCEN @s_leighslt@RISCIGBI 👆agree. We also see high rates of laryngeal pathologies in this group (oedema, vocal fold paresis etc) so direct visualisation under cuff deflation, PMV and so on will help determine contributing factors to toleration/voice
Thrilled to see this paper come together and work with such a wonderful team. Oropharyngeal #dysphagia in Acute Cervical Spinal Cord Injury. Take a look ⬇️ #MDT#slpeeps @SONHStrust
Delighted to receive an Early Career Scholar Award @ISCoSmeetings recognisibg dysphagia in patients with SCI. Huge thanks to @The_SRI for support & colleagues @s_leighslt@SarahMorganSLT@BelenLopezSLT for their dedication to clinical excellence. More data and research needed 🏆
Wonderful collaboration & opportunity to share our work @ISCoSmeetings#slpeeps
Use of FEES in spinal cord injury - helps identify laryngeal pathology & early return to oral intake #dysphagia
Logged onto my virtual attendance @ISCoSmeetings to see our Award poster presented by @s_leighslt 👏
Thanks to @The_SRI for funding and supporting our work 😊
Fantastic conference to be part of, sharing ideas & research for improving care in #SCI
The role of the larynx in respiratory function & weaning- should we be routinely assessing the upper airway?
#Dysphagia & silent aspiration are common features
@RISCIGBI
