Dysphagia Following Stroke (Clinical Dysphagia)

This practical and easy-to-use handbook provides up-to-date coverage of the evaluation and treatment of swallowing disorders in the stroke population. The gap between academics and clinical practice is narrowed with the latest research packaged for clinical application. Particular focus is on the clinical and instrumental evaluation of swallowing, measurements of dysphagia, principles of care for patients with dysphagia following stroke, rehabilitation and risk management. Clinical examples are incorporated throughout the text to facilitate clinical integration and relevance.
For the second edition, the authors have revised the text to reflect new research to guide clinical practice in evaluation and treatment, particularly the section on emerging modalities. A section on swallowing screening has been added, and the section on videofluoroscopic interpretation and treatment has been updated.
With its updates and revision, Dysphagia Following Stroke, Second Edition, is sure to remain a favorite resource for clinicians treating swallowing disorders in the stroke population.
