Excited to share PhD publication #3 'The incidence and clinical outcomes of postextubation #dysphagia in a regional #CriticalCare setting'. @swallowneurolab @rlswbb @drtimchimunda @FlindersCFI @FlindersCNHS @Aus_CC. Look forward to discussing at #SPAConf https://t.co/pyKhR5rzBJ

📢Excited to share our paper on how machine learning screening approaches may enable early patient-specific #dysphagia risk identification within an #ICU cohort and consequently, timely management. https://t.co/y6I5beXEAY

This scoping review found that:
• EN fasting practices for airway procedures are variable, range 0- 34 h

• There is a lack of high-quality evidence to guide EN fasting practices in the ICU

• RCTs are needed to explore risks/benefits of reduced fasting for airway procedures

Hi everyone @_ESSD_ and #ESSD2022, if you work in #MND or #ALS please consider taking part in @bekfrancis survey on management of dysphagia in the context of cognitive and behavioural changes. Or retweet. Or both! Thanks v much!!

[Mel Mc Intyre @melmcintyre]

Thanks for presenting our work on #dysphagia post extubation @_ESSD_ in Belgium @swallowneurolab.

[Sebastian Doeltgen @swallowneurolab]

Looking forward to presenting @melmcintyre 's PhD study on the prevalence of PED in Australian ICUs at @_ESSD_ in Leuven, Belgium today. Well done on a great study, Mel. Watch this space for the publication, poster sneak peek here: https://t.co/LdU9QPYZFF

A little question for the #AHP world of Twitter… are there any Speechies #SLT #slpeeps out there trained to deliver Botox injections for #sialorrhea? @wespeechies @RCSLTLearn 👅💦

What is your experience of using a #FreeWaterProtocol in acute care settings? How do you make the decision about who is suitable, whether to adapt it, how to overcome barriers? Can you relate to our case examples? Read on for a free copy....https://t.co/h1i2D0D04I

@drjackiem @MBBrodskyPhD @MsAnnaLiisaSutt @MartaKazandjian @AHPLeader @WalsheMargaret @sarahwallaceslt @SallyAnneDunca1 @annacmiles @vergara_herazo Similar to @drjackiem , depends on urgency and reason for trache. Our trache team aim is whenever possible for pre-insertion MDT input.

@MichelleCimoli @swallowneurolab @rlswbb @drtimchimunda @FlindersCFI @FlindersCNHS @Aus_CC Thanks Michelle, some days I think I have more questions than answers, but I know it’s important to acknowledge and reveal the challenges so that we can work towards influencing better patient outcomes together.

@drjackiem @swallowneurolab @rlswbb @drtimchimunda @FlindersCFI @FlindersCNHS @Aus_CC @CriticalCareSLT @RCSLTResearch Thanks @drjackiem, I agree more research required in this rapidly evolving space. Thanks for your comments on the video, I’m definitely very clunky at video editing but improving with every one!

[Mel Mc Intyre @melmcintyre]

@SRHarvey_ @swallowneurolab @rlswbb @drtimchimunda @FlindersCFI @FlindersCNHS @Aus_CC Thanks Sam. It’s on the lower end but lots to consider when comparing studies e.g. patient sub-population/specialties & median duration of intubation, 22hrs is shorter than many #dysphagia studies but appears consistent with Aus/NZ MV point prevalence data and clinical practice.
