Purpose This systematic review summarizes the biomechanical and functional effects of the
effortful swallow in adults with and without dysphagia, highlighting clinical implications and …

Background: Dysphagia causes severe complications among people with a stroke.
Physiotherapy allows the cure of this pathology, and among the tools it offers is …

Background Oropharyngeal dysphagia post‐stroke is well known, with its presence
increasing the risk of poor outcomes in particular aspiration and aspiration pneumonia …

Objective. To explore the efficacy of high‐frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic
stimulation (rTMS) of the swallowing motor area of the cerebellum in patients with dysphagia …

Biofeedback is a critical component in motor learning of new, complex behaviors such as
modifications to swallowing. Surface electromyography (sEMG) is a commonly employed …

Evidence-based practice (EBP) is a well-established framework for supporting clinical
decision making in the discipline of speech-language pathology. The benefits of using …

Rationale Aspiration is a common sequela post stroke as a result of oropharyngeal
dysphagia. It is primarily managed using the poorly empirically supported intervention of …

BACKGROUND: This study explored the available literature on the phenomenon of clinical
reasoning and described its influence on the clinical swallow evaluation. By exploring the …

Purpose: To explore the perspectives and practices of speech-language pathologists on
dosage of swallowing exercises in stroke rehabilitation. Method: Online focus groups …

Purpose: The intervention of thickened liquids (TL) is commonly used to reduce aspiration in
people with dysphagia. Speech-language pathologists (SLPs) have traditionally believed it …
