Inside the service
Pediatric dysphagia is difficulty swallowing safely and efficiently. We perform clinical swallow evaluations, identify aspiration risks, and design management plans that may include texture changes, positioning, pacing, and specific techniques. We coordinate with instrumental studies (FEES, MBS) when needed.
