Findings in #JSLHR study show that voluntary cough airflow is associated w/ #cough effectiveness to clear aspiration from the #subglottis, although aspiration amount & depth may play an important role in this relationship. on.asha.org/3JdaNBH @SIGPerspectives #slpeeps

Difficulty swallowing (#dysphagia) is a common consequence of many disorders, which can affect quality of life and health outcomes. Dysphagia is a complex physiological process and is managed by an interdisciplinary team (e.g., SLP, MD, RD) #SwallowAware2021
Ahead of World Swallow Awareness Day on the 17 March, the PHA has released a new animation to raise awareness of this issue.
