Deglutition in Advanced Age
New Zealand’s population is ageing; it is forecast that more older adults will be living longer. Ageing is associated with increased health conditions, diseases, and medications, some of which cause swallowing problems (dysphagia). It is essential that clinicians understand swallowing function in …

Linear Mixed Models With Non-Normal Distributions
… has been applied to the real data obtained from deglutition and respiration studies and showed significant improvement over normal model fits. The estimators are shown to be asymptotically normal with good efficiency and robustness.

A biomechanical investigation of the structure--function relationships in the human tongue
… protrusion, sagittal bending, and oral stage deglutition were studied with this technique. The results demonstrated that synergistic co-contraction between various muscle populations produced the necessary deformations in global tongue shape. In order to delineate specific muscular …

Doctor of nursing practice (DNP) quality improvement (QI) project : implementation of a nurse-driven bedside swallow screening protocol in a pediatric intensive care unit (PICU)
Problem: Pediatric dysphagia is associated with delayed oral intake, prolonged length of stay, and increased risk of complications. In pediatric intensive care units (PICUs), reliance on speech-language pathology (SLP) consultation may delay timely evaluation and intervention. Standardized …
