All of the above

220.

What assessment am I describing?

You look at the hypopharynx, lateral channels, pyriform sinus, arytenoids, true and fold folds

a)

Screening

b)

Bedside clinical evaluation

c)

VFSS

d)

FEES

221.

Which of the following is NOT part of the pharyngeal assessment for FEES?

a)

Structures at rest

b)

Airway protection: couch, hold breath, hold breath tightly, hold breath for 5 seconds.

c)

Phonation: movement: functional vs disordered, loudness and pitch levels, have patient sniff and inhale

d)

Food trials:

Milk, nectar, honey water. Applesauce, sandwich or other.

e)

None of the above

222.

True or False: With FEES you can see penetration/aspiration

a)

True

b)

False

223.

What are these the indications for:

Endoscopy unavailable/patient won't tolerate

The oral stage needs to be visualized

Esophageal stage problems

Need nonfiction about the presence or amount of aspiration

Need comprehensive evaluation of all phases

When endoscopy does not fully answer clinical questions

Possible cricoesphageal problems (EX: GERD)

a)

Screening

b)

Bedside clinical evaluation

c)

VFSS

d)

FEES

224.

What are these the indications for:

Transportation and positioning is problematic

Concern about excess radiation exposure (cancer)

Patiion with sever dysphagia who has a lot of secretions.

Post-intubation or surgery where involvement of the vagus nerve is suspected.

Tracheostomy where laryngeal competence is supsected

Need to assess fatigue impact

Biofeedback/Therapeutic in nature

When the hypernasal/VPI, hoarse wet vocal quality, suspect aspiration of secretions.

When VFSS does not fully answer clinical questions

a)

Screening

b)

Bedside clinical evaluation

c)

VFSS

d)

FEES

225.

Which of the following is NOT an example of "other instrumental procedures)

a)

EMG

b)

EGG

c)

Cervical auscultation

d)

Pharyngeal manometry

e)

EKG

226.

Which "other instrumental procedure" am I describing?

Listening to sounds made by various body structures

Uses a stethescope

Can be used in two ways: sound of resipation or sounds of swallowing

a)

EMG

b)

EGG

c)

Cervical auscultation

d)

Pharyngeal manometry

e)

EKG

227.

What part of cervical auscultation am I describing?

Use of a stethoscope to listing to inhalation, exhalation, and occurrence of the pharyngeal swallow.

Seretions in airway can be heard

Changes in level or secretions before and after swallowing can help identify potential aspiration.

a)

Sounds of respiration

b)

sounds of aspiration

c)

sounds of swallowing

d)

sounds of penetration

228.

What part of cervical auscultation am I describing?

Acoustic procedure used to assess temporal measures of swallowing

Presnt 10cc water and listen 3 times to each swallow: before, during, and after.

There are two clicks/bursts:

1: water enters pharynx

2: water leaves pharynx and enters UES

a)

Sounds of respiration

b)

sounds of aspiration

c)

sounds of swallowing

d)

sounds of penetration
