    B. Elevation and depression -ROM
    C. Tongue click on the roof of mouth to assess tongue base
    D. Protrusion of the tongue- does it deviate to one side.
    E. Retraction and resistance
    Explanation
    In the lingual portion of the oral motor assessment, we are looking at various movements and abilities of the tongue. This includes assessing the range of motion (ROM) for lateralization (side-to-side movement) and elevation and depression (up-and-down movement). We also assess the ability to click the tongue on the roof of the mouth to assess the tongue base. Another aspect is checking if the tongue protrudes and if it deviates to one side. Lastly, we assess retraction (pulling back) and resistance (strength and control). These assessments help evaluate the functioning and coordination of the tongue in speech and swallowing.

    What do we assess in jaw control

    • A.

      Range of motion (it should be 3 fingers width minimum)

    • B.

      Pain with opening?

    • C.

      Chewing should not be assessed during p,o trials

    • D.

      Chewing is assessed during p.o trials

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Range of motion (it should be 3 fingers width minimum)
    B. Pain with opening?
    D. Chewing is assessed during p.o trials
    Explanation
    The correct answer is Range of motion (it should be 3 fingers width minimum), Pain with opening?, and Chewing is assessed during p.o trials. This is because when assessing jaw control, we need to evaluate the range of motion, ensuring that it is at least 3 fingers width. We also need to check for any pain experienced during opening the jaw. Additionally, chewing is assessed during post-operative trials to evaluate the patient's ability to chew properly.

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. pHonation is it strong or weak
    B. Volitional cough is it strong or weak
    C. Volitional clear is it strong or weak
    Explanation
    In oral motor assessment, we assess the strength of various protective mechanisms. This includes assessing the strength of phonation, which refers to the ability to produce sound. We also assess the strength of volitional cough, which is the ability to forcefully expel air from the lungs to clear the airway. Additionally, we assess the strength of volitional clear, which is the ability to clear the throat of any obstructions or secretions. These assessments help determine if these protective mechanisms are functioning properly and if they are strong enough to protect the airway.

    What do we look at in an oral motor assessment with regards to the soft palate

    • A.

      Symmetry at rest with a flashlight

    • B.

      Gag reflux

    • C.

      Nasality present (indicates a poor velopharyngeal swallow)

    • D.

      Pain in opening

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Symmetry at rest with a flashlight
    B. Gag reflux
    C. Nasality present (indicates a poor velopHaryngeal swallow)
    Explanation
    In an oral motor assessment, we look at the symmetry of the soft palate at rest with a flashlight to check for any abnormalities or asymmetry. Gag reflux is also assessed to determine the sensitivity and response of the soft palate. The presence of nasality indicates a poor velopharyngeal swallow, which can affect speech and swallowing. Pain in opening is not mentioned as a specific aspect to be assessed in relation to the soft palate.

    When we look at the Dry Swallow with Laryngeal palpation what are we looking at

    • A.

      See if they can initiate dry swallow

    • B.

      Palpate is the larynx elevating and protracting

    • C.

      Is there elevation with or without protraction

    • D.

      Option4

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. See if they can initiate dry swallow
    B. Palpate is the larynx elevating and protracting
    Explanation
    The correct answer is a combination of two statements. First, we are looking to see if the person can initiate a dry swallow. This means they can swallow without any liquid or food present in their mouth. Second, we are palpating (feeling) the larynx to determine if it is elevating (moving upward) and protracting (moving forward). By observing these actions, we can assess the function of the larynx during swallowing.

    Rate this question:

  • 18. 

    What do we look at when we do Laryngeal Palpation

    • A.

      Elevation with or without protraction

    • B.

      Rate of elevation is it sluggish or fast

    • C.

      Fluid: is the movement uninterupted (how efficient is the pharyngeal phase)

    • D.

      Option4

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Elevation with or without protraction
    B. Rate of elevation is it sluggish or fast
    C. Fluid: is the movement uninterupted (how efficient is the pHaryngeal pHase)
    Explanation
    Laryngeal palpation is a technique used to assess the movement and function of the larynx during swallowing. When performing laryngeal palpation, we look for several things. Firstly, we observe whether there is elevation of the larynx, with or without protraction. This helps determine if the larynx is moving upward and forward as it should during swallowing. Secondly, we assess the rate of elevation, checking if it is sluggish or fast. This provides information about the efficiency of the swallowing process. Lastly, we examine the movement of fluid, ensuring that it is uninterrupted, which indicates the effectiveness of the pharyngeal phase of swallowing.

    Rate this question:

  • 19. 

    Cervical Ausculation looks at how efficient the pharyngeal phase is

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Cervical auscultation is a method used to assess the efficiency of the pharyngeal phase of swallowing. This technique involves listening to the sounds produced by the throat during swallowing to detect any abnormalities or signs of aspiration. By listening to the sounds made by the muscles and structures involved in the pharyngeal phase, healthcare professionals can determine if the swallowing process is functioning properly or if there are any issues that need to be addressed. Therefore, the statement that cervical auscultation looks at how efficient the pharyngeal phase is, is true.

  • 20. 

    What do we look at in cervical auscultation 

    • A.

      Place stethoscope on the side of the neck and listen to breathing on each side

    • B.

      Listen for gurgling

    • C.

      Have patient clear

    • D.

      If not cleared gurgling is still there

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Place stethoscope on the side of the neck and listen to breathing on each side
    B. Listen for gurgling
    C. Have patient clear
    D. If not cleared gurgling is still there
    Explanation
    Cervical auscultation is a technique used to assess swallowing function by listening to the sounds produced during swallowing. The correct answer suggests that in cervical auscultation, one should place the stethoscope on the side of the neck and listen to breathing on each side. This allows the healthcare professional to detect any abnormal sounds or gurgling noises that may indicate a problem with swallowing. Additionally, the answer mentions the importance of listening for gurgling and having the patient clear their throat. If gurgling persists even after the patient clears their throat, it may indicate a persistent issue with swallowing.

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Gurguly wet vocal quality
    B. Loss of voice
    C. Watering Eyes
    D. Running nose
    E. Delayed cough
    Explanation
    The signs of silent aspiration include a gurgly wet vocal quality, loss of voice, watering eyes, running nose, and delayed cough. Silent aspiration occurs when food or liquids enter the airway and cause irritation or infection. The gurgly wet vocal quality is a result of the liquid in the airway, while the loss of voice can occur due to the irritation caused by aspiration. Watering eyes and a running nose may be a response to the irritation in the airway. The delayed cough is a common symptom of silent aspiration, as the body may not immediately respond to clear the airway.

    When do we give thin liquids to patients 

    • A.

      When we want to slow down the swallow

    • B.

      When there is a fear that there may be aspiration

    • C.

      Poor oral control of the bolus with manipulation

    • D.

      Option4

    Correct Answer
    B. When there is a fear that there may be aspiration
    Explanation
    Thin liquids are given to patients when there is a fear that there may be aspiration. Aspiration occurs when food or liquid enters the airway instead of going down the esophagus. Thin liquids are easier to aspirate compared to thicker liquids, so they are given to patients in order to slow down the swallow and reduce the risk of aspiration. This is especially important for patients who have poor oral control of the bolus with manipulation, as they may have difficulty swallowing and are at a higher risk of aspiration.

    • E.

      Can't see during swallowing

    • F.

      Limits velopharyngeal closure

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Difficult to assess impact of fatigue
    B. Barium may change food consistency
    C. Patient may not tolerate
    D. Controlled bolus vs. intake behaviors
    Explanation
    The challenges of VFSS include difficulties in assessing the impact of fatigue on swallowing, as well as the potential for barium to change the consistency of food. Additionally, some patients may not tolerate the procedure, and the controlled bolus vs. intake behaviors may pose challenges. Another challenge is that during swallowing, it is not possible to see what is happening, and VFSS limits velopharyngeal closure.

      No radiation

    • B.

      Clear view of all structures

    • C.

      Assess airway closure

    • D.

      Biofeedback for patient

    • E.

      Assess management of secretions

    • F.

      Motor aspects of the pharyngeal swallow

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. No radiation
    B. Clear view of all structures
    C. Assess airway closure
    D. Biofeedback for patient
    E. Assess management of secretions
    Explanation
    FEES (videoendoscopy) has several advantages. Firstly, there is no radiation involved, which makes it a safer option compared to other imaging techniques. Secondly, it provides a clear view of all structures, allowing for a more accurate assessment. It also enables the assessment of airway closure, which is important in identifying any potential issues. Additionally, FEES allows for biofeedback for the patient, helping them understand and improve their swallowing function. Lastly, it helps in assessing the management of secretions and the motor aspects of the pharyngeal swallow.

    What are the disadvantages of FEES

    • A.

      Can't see during the swallow

    • B.

      Must define problem based upon location

    • C.

      Doesn't visualize oral prep oral stage

    • D.

      Limits VP closure

    • E.

      If the patient cant breathe through the nose they may have trouble with a scope

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Can't see during the swallow
    B. Must define problem based upon location
    C. Doesn't visualize oral prep oral stage
    D. Limits VP closure
    E. If the patient cant breathe through the nose they may have trouble with a scope
    Explanation
    FEES (Fiberoptic Endoscopic Evaluation of Swallowing) has several disadvantages. Firstly, it does not provide visibility during the actual swallowing process, making it difficult to assess any abnormalities that may occur at that moment. Secondly, FEES requires the clinician to define the problem based on its location, which may limit the ability to identify underlying causes accurately. Additionally, FEES does not visualize the oral preparation stage of swallowing, potentially missing any issues that may arise during this phase. Moreover, FEES may limit the assessment of velopharyngeal (VP) closure, which is important for proper swallowing function. Lastly, if a patient cannot breathe through their nose, it can pose challenges when using a scope during the procedure.
