thermal tactile stimulation protocol

Thermal-tactile stimulation (TTS) is a sensory technique whereby stimulation is provided to the anterior faucial pillars to speed up the pharyngeal swallow. Modifications to positioning are made as needed and are documented as part of the assessment findings. 0000001256 00000 n 0000019458 00000 n The electrical stimulation protocol was performed using a modified hand- held battery powered electrical stimulator (vital stim) that consists of a symmetric . https://doi.org/10.2147/NDT.S82538, Pados, B. F., & Fuller, K. (2020). The clinician requests that the family provide. In turn, the caregiver can use these cues to optimize feeding by responding to the infants needs in a dynamic fashion at any given moment (Shaker, 2013b). 0000075738 00000 n As the child matures, the intraoral space increases as the mandible grows down and forward, and the oral cavity elongates in the vertical dimension. Therefore, a large randomized clinical trial would be beneficial to clearly define the role of NMES in recovery of swallowing ability following a brain injury. Oropharyngeal dysphagia and/or feeding dysfunction in children with cerebral palsy is estimated to be 19.2%99.0%. ASHA does not endorse any products, procedures, or programs, and therefore does not have an official position on the use of electrical stimulation or specific workshops or products associated with electrical stimulation. How can the childs quality of life be preserved and/or enhanced? Although thermal tactile oral stimulation is a common method to treat dysphagic patients to improve swallowing movement, little is known about the possible mechanisms. J Rehabil Med 2009; 41: 174-178 Correspondence address: Kil-Byung Lim, Department of Reha- Dycem to prevent plates and cups from sliding. Careful pulmonary monitoring during a modified barium swallow is essential to help determine the childs endurance over a typical mealtime. (Note: Lip closure is not required for infant feeding because the tongue typically seals the anterior opening of the oral cavity.). As a result, intake is improved (Shaker, 2013a). middle and ring fingers were exposed to the thermal stimulation. However, there are times when a prescription, referral, or medical clearance from the students primary care physician or other health care provider is indicated, such as when the student. Feeding and gastrointestinal problems in children with cerebral palsy. See the Pediatric Feeding and Swallowing Evidence Map for summaries of the available research on this topic. International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health. 0000004953 00000 n 0000017421 00000 n turn their head away from the spoon to show that they have had enough. infants current state, including respiratory rate and heart rate; infants behavior (e.g., positive rooting, willingness to suckle at breast); infants position (e.g., well supported, tucked against the mothers body); infants ability to latch onto the breast; efficiency and coordination of the infants suck/swallow/breathe pattern; mothers behavior (e.g., comfort with breastfeeding, confidence in handling the infant, awareness of the infants cues during feeding). Children who demonstrate aversive responses to stimulation may need approaches that reduce the level of sensory input initially, with incremental increases as the child demonstrates tolerance. https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/nhds/8newsborns/2010new8_numbersick.pdf [PDF], National Eating Disorders Association. Information from the referral, parent interview/case history, and clinical evaluation of the student is used to develop IEP goals and objectives for improved feeding and swallowing, if appropriate. (2000). 1 Successful Rehabilitation Strategies Based on Motor Learning in Patients with Swallowing Disorders Motor learning refers to how motor performance is improved and subsequently maintained. Early Human Development, 85(5), 303311. 0000089331 00000 n Huckabee, M. L., & Pelletier, C. A. These cues typically indicate that the infant is disengaging from feeding and communicating the need to stop. 1400 et seq. The Individuals with Disabilities Education Improvement Act of 2004 (IDEA, 2004) protects the rights of students with disabilities, ensures free appropriate public education, and mandates services for students who may have health-related disorders that impact their ability to fully participate in the educational curriculum. When treatment incorporates accommodations, modifications, and supports in everyday settings, SLPs often provide training and education in how to use strategies to facilitate safe swallowing. Pediatrics, 135(6), e1458e1466. Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 61(11), 12491258. We recorded neuromagnetic responses to tactile stimulation of . The pup while on its back is allowed to sleep. Key words: swallowing, dysphagia, stroke, neuromuscular elec-trical stimulation.

For infants, pacing can be accomplished by limiting the number of consecutive sucks. screening of willingness to accept liquids and a variety of foods in multiple food groups to determine risk factors for avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder. (Practice Portal). These techniques may be used prior to or during the swallow. Silent aspiration is estimated at 41% of children with laryngeal cleft, 41%49% of children with laryngomalacia, and 54% of children with unilateral vocal fold paralysis (Jaffal et al., 2020; Velayutham et al., 2018). Arvedson, J. C., & Lefton-Greif, M. A. Members of the Swallowing and Swallowing Disorders (Dysphagia) Committee on Cross-Training included Caryn Easterling, Maureen Lefton-Greif, Paula Sullivan, Nancy Swigert, and Janet Brown (ASHA staff liaison). This understanding gives the SLP the necessary knowledge to choose appropriate treatment interventions and provide rationale for their use in the NICU.

The space between the tongue and the palate increases, and the larynx and the hyoid bone lower, elongating and enlarging the pharynx (Logemann, 1998). https://doi.org/10.5014/ajot.42.1.40, Homer, E. (2008). NNS does not determine readiness to orally feed, but it is helpful for assessment. The infants compression and suction strength. Anatomical and physiological differences include the following: Chewing matures as the child develops (see, e.g., Gisel, 1988; Le Rvrend et al., 2014; Wilson & Green, 2009). Prevalence of feeding disorders in children with cleft palate only: A retrospective study.

Long-term follow-up of oropharyngeal dysphagia in children without apparent risk factors. different positions (e.g., side feeding). Feeding protocols include those that consider infant cues (i.e., responsive feeding) and those that are based on a schedule (i.e., scheduled feeding). A population of cold-responding fibers with response properties similar to those innervating primate skin were determined to be mediating the thermal evoked response to skin cooling in man. In the Masako, the tongue is held forward between the teeth while swallowing; this is performed without food or liquid in the mouth to prevent coughing or choking.

ASHA does not require any additional certifications to perform E-stim and urges members to follow the ASHA Code of Ethics, Principle II, Rule A which states: "Individuals who hold the Certificate of Clinical Competence shall engage in only those aspects of the professions that are within the scope of their professional practice and competence, considering their certification status, education, training, and experience" (ASHA, 2016a). The Laryngoscope, 125(3), 746750. Swallowing is commonly divided into the following four phases (Arvedson & Brodsky, 2002; Logemann, 1998): Feeding disorders are problems with a range of eating activities that may or may not include problems with swallowing. Early provision of oropharyngeal colostrum leads to sustained breast milk feedings in preterm infants. The infants ability to use both compression (positive pressure of the jaw and tongue on the pacifier) and suction (negative pressure created with tongue cupping and jaw movement). Instrumental evaluation can also help determine if swallow safety can be improved by modifying food textures, liquid consistencies, and positioning or implementing strategies. Journal of Obstetric, Gynecologic, & Neonatal Nursing, 25(9), 771776. Prior to bolus delivery, the SLP may assess the following: A team approach is necessary for appropriately diagnosing and managing pediatric feeding and swallowing disorders, as the severity and complexity of these disorders vary widely in this population (McComish et al., 2016). (2002). has a complex medical condition and experiences a significant change in status. Beal, J., Silverman, B., Bellant, J., Young, T. E., & Klontz, K. (2012). This paper reviews the method's history and selected data, outlines the theoretical underpinnings of sensory stimulation, reminds readers of what is required to bring a treatment from the laboratory to the clinic, and ends with some notions about the importance of belief and data in rehabilitation. The effects of TTS on swallowing have not yet been investigated in IPD. an assessment of behaviors that relate to the childs response to food. Keep in mind that infants and young children with feeding and swallowing disorders, as well as some older children with concomitant intellectual disabilities, often need intervention techniques that do not require them to follow simple verbal or nonverbal instructions. ARFID rates are estimated to be as high as 5% in the general pediatric population and 1.5%13.8% in children between the ages of 8 and 18 years with suspected gastrointestinal problems or eating disorders (Eddy et al., 2015; Fisher et al., 2014; Norris et al., 2016). https://doi.org/10.1097/NMC.0000000000000252, Meal Requirements for Lunches and Requirements for Afterschool Snacks, 7 C.F.R. breathing difficulties when feeding, which might be signaled by.

Jennifer Carter of the Carter Swallowing Center, LLC, presents . Prevalence rates of oral dysphagia in children with craniofacial disorders are estimated to be 33%83% (Caron et al., 2015; de Vries et al., 2014; Reid et al., 2006). This question is answered by the childs medical team. See the Service Delivery section of the Pediatric Feeding and Swallowing Evidence Map for pertinent scientific evidence, expert opinion, and client/caregiver perspective. If choosing to use electrical stimulation in the pediatric population, the primary focus should be on careful patient selection to ensure that electrical stimulation is being used only in situations where there is no possibility of inducing untoward effects. Reproduced and adapted with permission. Infants under 6 months of age typically require head, neck, and trunk support. Indicators of choking risk in adults with learning disabilities: A questionnaire survey and interview study. As indicated in the ASHA Code of Ethics (ASHA, 2016a), SLPs who serve a pediatric population should be educated and appropriately trained to do so. When conducting an instrumental evaluation, SLPs should consider the following: Procedures take place in a child-friendly environment with toys, visual distracters, rewards, and a familiar caregiver, if possible and when appropriate. This method . A significant number of studies that evaluated tactile-pain interactions employed heat to evoke nociceptive responses. 0000017901 00000 n Sensory stimulation may be needed for children with reduced responses, overactive responses, or limited opportunities for sensory experiences. Understanding adult anatomy and physiology of the swallow provides a basis for understanding dysphagia in children, but SLPs require knowledge and skills specific to pediatric populations. Disability and Rehabilitation, 30(15), 11311138. https://doi.org/10.1111/dmcn.14316, Thacker, A., Abdelnoor, A., Anderson, C., White, S., & Hollins, S. (2008). SLPs work with oral and pharyngeal implications of adaptive equipment. NNS involves allowing an infant to suck without taking milk, either at the breast (after milk has been expressed) or with the use of a pacifier. Do these behaviors result in family/caregiver frustration or increased conflict during meals? Pediatric Feeding and Swallowing. Tube feeding includes alternative avenues of intake such as via a nasogastric tube, a transpyloric tube (placed in the duodenum or jejunum), or a gastrostomy tube (a gastronomy tube placed in the stomach or a gastronomyjejunostomy tube placed in the jejunum). Referrals may be made to dental professionals for assessment and fitting of these devices. 0000090013 00000 n https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ridd.2014.08.029, Benfer, K. A., Weir, K. A., Bell, K.

(2017). 0000013318 00000 n The VFSS may be appropriate for a child who is currently NPO or has never eaten by mouth to determine whether the child has a functional swallow and which types of food they can manage. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00784-013-1117-x, Eddy, K. T., Thomas, J. J., Hastings, E., Edkins, K., Lamont, E., Nevins, C. M., Patterson, R. M., Murray, H. B., Bryant-Waugh, R., & Becker, A. E. (2015). ARFID and PFD may exist separately or concurrently. Thermal tactile stimulation also, known as thermal application is one type of therapy used for the treatment of swallowing disorders. Feeding is the process involving any aspect of eating or drinking, including gathering and preparing food and liquid for intake, sucking or chewing, and swallowing (Arvedson & Brodsky, 2002). A clinical evaluation of swallowing and feeding is the first step in determining the presence or absence of a swallowing disorder. Thermal-tactile stimulation (TTS) is a sensory technique whereby stimulation is provided to the anterior faucial pillars to speed up the pharyngeal swallow. Is a sensory motorbased intervention for behavioral issues indicated? Infants and Young Children, 8(2), 58-64. SLPs treating preterm and medically fragile infants must be well versed in typical infant behavior and development so that they can recognize and interpret changes in behavior. (2017). Consider the childs pulmonary status, nutritional status, overall medical condition, mobility, swallowing abilities, and cognition, in addition to the childs swallowing function and how these factors affect feeding efficiency and safety. -Group II (thermal tactile stimulation treatment program): Comprised 25 patients who received thermal tactile stimulation daily three times, each of 20 minutes touch-pain and thermal-pain, in which touch and thermal stimuli reduce the perception of pain) (Bolanowski et al., 2001, Green and Pope, 2003 . In infants, the tongue fills the oral cavity, and the velum hangs lower.

SLPs develop and typically lead the school-based feeding and swallowing team. Scope of practice in speech-language pathology [Scope of practice]. Thermal tactile oral stimulation (TTOS) is an established method to treat patients with neurogenic dysphagia especially if caused by sensory deficits. Most NICUs have begun to move away from volume-driven feeding to cue-based feeding (Shaker, 2013a). Consistent with the World Health Organizations (WHO) International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health framework (ASHA, 2016a; WHO, 2001), a comprehensive assessment is conducted to identify and describe. scintigraphy (which, in the pediatric population, may also be referred to as radionuclide milk scanning). Prevalence refers to the number of children who are living with feeding and swallowing problems in a given time period. International Journal of Eating Disorders, 48(5), 464470. https://www.nationaleatingdisorders.org/warning-signs-and-symptoms, Newman, L. A., Keckley, C., Petersen, M. C., & Hamner, A. They also provide information about the infants physiologic stability, which underlies the coordination of breathing and swallowing, and they guide the caregiver to intervene to support safe feeding. ASHA extends its gratitude to the following subject matter experts who were involved in the development of the Pediatric Dysphagia page: In addition, ASHA thanks the members of the Ad Hoc Committee on Speech-Language Pathology Practice in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU); Special Interest Division 13, Swallowing and Swallowing Disorders (Dysphagia) Committee on Cross-Training; and the Working Group on Dysphagia in Schools, whose work was foundational to the development of this content. Similar to treatment for infants in the NICU, treatment for toddlers and older children takes a number of factors into consideration, including the following: Management of students with feeding and swallowing disorders in the schools addresses the impact of the disorder on the students educational performance and promotes the students safe swallow in order to avoid choking and/or aspiration pneumonia. They were divided into two equal groups according to the rehabilitation programs they received. Oropharyngeal dysphagia in preschool children with cerebral palsy: Oral phase impairments. Such beliefs and holistic healing practices may not be consistent with recommendations made. The school SLP (or case manager) contacts the family to obtain consent for an evaluation if further evaluation is deemed necessary. A. See Person-Centered Focus on Function: Pediatric Feeding and Swallowing [PDF] for examples of goals consistent with the ICF framework. Administration of small amounts of maternal milk into the oral cavity of enteral tubedependent infants improves breastfeeding rates, growth, and immune-protective factors and reduces sepsis (Pados & Fuller, 2020). The infants ability to maintain a stable physiological state (e.g., oxygen saturation, heart rate, respiratory rate) during NNS. See Person-Centered Focus on Function: Pediatric Feeding and Swallowing [PDF] for examples of assessment data consistent with the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health framework. Positioning infants and children for videofluroscopic swallowing function studies. Feeding and swallowing challenges can persist well into adolescence and adulthood. McComish, C., Brackett, K., Kelly, M., Hall, C., Wallace, S., & Powell, V. (2016). Diet modifications consist of altering the viscosity, texture, temperature, portion size, or taste of a food or liquid to facilitate safety and ease of swallowing. In this study, the impact that non-noxious heat had on three features of tactile information processing capacity was evaluated: vibrotactile . Journal of Clinical Gastroenterology, 30(1), 3446. data from monitoring devices (e.g., for patients in the neonatal intensive care unit [NICU]); nonverbal forms of communication (e.g., behavioral cues signaling feeding or swallowing problems); and. 0000055191 00000 n For children who have difficulty participating in the procedure, the clinician should allow time to control problem behaviors prior to initiating the instrumental procedure. (1999). 0000089259 00000 n If certain practices are contraindicated, the clinician can work with the family to determine alternatives that allow the child to safely participate as fully as possible. It is assumed that the incidence of feeding and swallowing disorders is increasing because of the improved survival rates of children with complex and medically fragile conditions (Lefton-Greif, 2008; Lefton-Greif et al., 2006; Newman et al., 2001) and the improved longevity of persons with dysphagia that develops during childhood (Lefton-Greif et al., 2017). The SLP who specializes in feeding and swallowing disorders typically leads the professional care team in the clinical or educational setting. Behaviors can include changes in the following: Readiness for oral feeding in the preterm or acutely ill, full-term infant is associated with. See ASHAs resources on interprofessional education/interprofessional practice (IPE/IPP), and person- and family-centered care. Prior to the instrumental evaluation, clinicians are encouraged to collaborate with the medical team regarding feeding schedules that will maximize feeding readiness during the evaluation. 0000089512 00000 n Pro-Ed. If the child is NPO, the clinician allows time for the child to develop the ability to accept and swallow a bolus. Incidence refers to the number of new cases identified in a specified time period. (Figure 4) Thermal stimulationuse a damp towel that has been cooled in a refrigerator for at least five minutes. Students who do not qualify for IDEA services and have swallowing and feeding disorders may receive services through the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, Section 504, under the provision that it substantially limits one or more of lifes major activities.
