Okay, this might sound like a trick question, but…What is dysphagia?
This single question might be the most “swallow your pride” kind of question for medical SLPs yet…
Because, believe it or not, we have yet to establish a standardized definition of dysphagia!
Which is exactly why Martin B. Brodsky Ph.D., Sc.M., CCC-SLP, F-ASHA, and Debra Suiter PhD, CCC-SLP, BCS-S are putting together a conference called “Defining Dysphagia: In Search of a Unified Definition for the Aging Population” and are joining me on this week’s episode of the Swallow Your Pride Podcast to talk about it!
Dr. Brodksy and Dr. Suiter lay out the facts, questions, and barriers surrounding dysphagia definitions and how they impact clinical practice, research, and patient care.
From the discrepancies between patient complaints and clinical definitions to the impacts that dysphagia has on coding and reimbursement, this single word has yet to reach a universal interpretation.
The Defining Dysphagia conference is happening September 13th - 15th, and you can register now at https://syppodcast.com/definingdysphagia
