Infants and Young Children, 8(2), 58-64. ; American Psychiatric Association, 2016), ARFID is an eating or a feeding disturbance (e.g., apparent lack of interest in eating or in food, avoidance based on the sensory characteristics of food, concern about aversive consequences of eating), as manifested by persistent failure to meet appropriate nutritional and/or energy needs associated with one (or more) of the following: SLPs may screen or make referrals for ARFID but do not diagnose this disorder. Postural and positioning techniques involve adjusting the childs posture or position to establish central alignment and stability for safe feeding. support safe and adequate nutrition and hydration; determine the optimum feeding methods and techniques to maximize swallowing safety and feeding efficiency; collaborate with family to incorporate dietary preferences; attain age-appropriate eating skills in the most normal setting and manner possible (i.e., eating meals with peers in the preschool, mealtime with the family); minimize the risk of pulmonary complications; prevent future feeding issues with positive feeding-related experiences to the extent possible, given the childs medical situation. The scope of this page is feeding and swallowing disorders in infants, preschool children, and school-age children up to 21 years of age. The evaluation process begins with a referral to a team of professionals within the school district who are trained in the identification and treatment of feeding and swallowing disorders.

Ongoing staff and family education is essential to student safety. Feeding and swallowing challenges can persist well into adolescence and adulthood. 0000051615 00000 n When the quality of feeding takes priority over the quantity ingested, the infant can set the pace of feeding and have more opportunity to enjoy the experience of feeding. 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. This question is answered by the childs medical team. 205]. 0000001256 00000 n Pediatric dysphagia.

SLPs should be sensitive to family values, beliefs, and access regarding bottle-feeding and breastfeeding and should consult with parents and collaborate with nurses, lactation consultants, and other medical professionals to help identify parent preferences. The plan should be reviewed annually along with the IEP goals and objectives or as needed if significant changes occur or if it is found to be ineffective. Early introduction of oral feeding in preterm infants. Signs and symptoms vary based on the phase(s) affected and the childs age and developmental level. The hyoid bone and the larynx are positioned higher than in adults, and the larynx elevates less than in adults during the pharyngeal phase of the swallow. In addition to the clinical evaluation of infants noted above, breastfeeding assessment typically includes an evaluation of the. 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. 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. 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://doi.org/10.1542/peds.2015-0658. Dysphagia in children with severe generalized cerebral palsy and intellectual disability. British Journal of Nutrition, 111(3), 403414. Communication Skill Builders. 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. Most NICUs have begun to move away from volume-driven feeding to cue-based feeding (Shaker, 2013a). From Arvedson, J.C., & Lefton-Greif, M.A. See the Treatment section of the Pediatric Feeding and Swallowing Evidence Map for pertinent scientific evidence, expert opinion, and client/caregiver perspective.

These techniques may be used prior to or during the swallow. Dosage depends on individual factors, including the childs medical status, nutritional needs, and readiness for oral intake. (2017). Additionally, the definition of ARFID considers nutritional deficiency, whereas PFD does not (Goday et al., 2019). Use: The Swallowing Activator is used for Tactile-Thermal Stimulation (TTS) to enhance bilateral cortical and brainstem activation of the swallow. 128 48 Members of the team include, but are not limited to, the following: If the school team determines that a medical assessment, such as a videofluoroscopic swallowing study (VFSS), flexible endoscopic evaluation of swallowing (FEES), sometimes also called fiber-optic endoscopic evaluation of swallowing, or other medical assessment, is required during the students program, the team works with the family to seek medical consultation or referral. It is used as a treatment option to encourage eventual oral intake. Nursing for Womens Health, 24(3), 202209. Benfer, K. A., Weir, K. A., Bell, K. L., Ware, R. S., Davies, P. S. W., & Boyd, R. N.

(2010). Biofeedback includes instrumental methods (e.g., surface electromyography, ultrasound, nasendoscopy) that provide visual feedback during feeding and swallowing. (2001). 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. (2006). 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). an assessment of behaviors that relate to the childs response to food.

ASHA is strongly committed to evidence-based practice and urges members to consider the best available evidence before utilizing any product or technique. The SLP providing and facilitating oral experiences with NNS must take great care to ensure that the experiences are positive and do not elicit stress or other negative consequences. This method . The space between the tongue and the palate increases, and the larynx and the hyoid bone lower, elongating and enlarging the pharynx (Logemann, 1998). (2017).
