What if you could take all of the evidence on aspiration, pneumonia, and dysphagia that has been amassed since the 1990sā¦
ā¦and package it into a clinical framework for SLPs to make informed decisions about aspiration risk?
*BOLUS framework has entered the chat*
Aaron Padilla MS, CCC-SLP, BCS-S and Phyllis Palmer, PhD, CCC-SLP join me on the Swallow Your Pride Podcast to introduce and explain the development of the BOLUS framework - a tool that considers:
Bolus characteristics
Oral health
Lifestyle factors
Unintended disease
System statusWe dig into how this framework can guide your clinical decisions AND help you have more meaningful conversations with your patients and healthcare team about risk management.
Ready to enhance your clinical decision-making process? Tune into Episode 346 and let me know what you think!

āResearch shows that one out of two patients forgets half the information given to them within 24 hours, and the other half remembers it incorrectly.ā
āļøThis is just ONE of the many golden nuggets of information that todayās guest throws at us.
The ability to explain complex medical information and recommendations to patients in a way thatās easy to understand is a true and necessary art, which is why we have Richard Zraick Ph.D., CCC-SLP, F-ASHA, CHSE from the University of Central Florida here to talk about it!
In this week's episode, youāll learn all about..
The two types of health literacy and how SLPs are involved in both
How tools like ChatGPT can help clinicians create more accessible patient education materials
A teaching method that, according to some studies, significantly reduces misunderstandings (and it only adds about 30 seconds to a clinical session.)
How to tackle poor health literacy from a multidisciplinary perspective
Strategies YOU can adopt to reduce medical jargon and set patients up for greater long-term outcomes.*NOTE: Octoberās themed mission inside the Medical SLP Collective is Health Literacy!

You know those awkward moments where you canāt hear what someone is saying in a loud environment, so you just nod and agree to whatever they say?
ā¦hoping it makes sense to just nod and agree?
As a medical SLP, odds are, youāve worked with patients who have done this to you.
Not because youāre providing therapy in a loud environment, but because they have receptive aphasia, or impaired auditory comprehension.
While impaired speech and language is easy to pick up on, auditory comprehension is a whole different ballparkā¦
Which is why weāre bring on our beloved aphasia & auditory comprehension MedSLP Collective mentor, Brett McCardel!
Brett drops dozens of golden knowledge nuggets with us as he shares things likeā¦
What impaired auditory comprehension can look like (it really varies!)
How auditory comprehension impacts quality of life
The two ways we can classify auditory comprehension
Assessment tools
Treatment considerationsAnd so much more!!

While we often like to talk about research findings that shows us statistical significance in data and solid numbers we can lean on for treatment approachesā¦
What about the kind of data that ISNāT objectively measured?
The kind that shows us what patients or other clinicians experience think, or believe.
Iām talking about qualitative research!
Is qualitative research viewed as āless reputableā than quantitative research?
What kind of valuable information can we pull from patient experiences, opinions, and views?
Beatrice Manduchi PhD, MSc, BSc (SLP) is here to talk all about it in todayās episode of the Swallow Your Pride podcast!
Beatrice is a speech-language pathologist who went from clinician to researcher and is currently working as a postdoc fellow at MD Anderson Cancer Center. Beatrice specializes in dysphagia, particularly in head and neck cancer.

We often talk about how aphasia impacts peopleās ability to speak or understand language, but what about aphasiaās impact on sign language?
Do the hands sometimes sign āappleā instead of āorangeā thanks to a semantic paraphasia?
If one arm is weak or paralyzed because of a stroke, how does THAT impact someoneās ability to communicate using sign language?
Instead of speech-language pathology, would we make the focus sign-language pathology?
Shelby Hill SLPD CCC-SLP QOM, is here to talk all about it - and you WONāT want to miss this discussion!
Shelby describes her important work and research with individuals who are deaf and have also acquired a communication disorder. She covers important topics like whether or not sign language falls under the SLP scope of practice, how the neurological processes for signing are similar to those for speaking, and what aphasia can look like in individuals who use sign language.
Donāt worry, if you find yourself saying, āI should have known that!ā throughout this episode, youāre not alone.

Okay, this might sound like a trick question, butā¦What is dysphagia?
This single question might be the most āswallow your prideā kind of question for medical SLPs yetā¦
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 āDefining Dysphagia: In Search of a Unified Definition for the Aging Populationā and are joining me on this weekās 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.

You know how dentists have those intraoral cameras that let patients see whatās going on in their mouth?
What if SLPs could use those as part of their dysphagia assessment?
Or as part of their biofeedback during therapy to check for residue and to see if certain compensatory strategies work? Just imagine quickly peeking into a patientās mouth with an angled intraoral camera and finding bread in the valleculae from the patientās last meal (which was two hours ago)!
Turns out we can!

āIām looking for a guy in financeā¦ā
Okay, while thatās the start of a recent viral song, I spoke with an SLP who *was* in finance.
Fred Stahl is a second-career medical SLP who shares how he went from hedge fund management to voice and dysphagia management for head and neck cancer survivors.
Together we discuss why he left finance for speech pathology, his learning experience, his involvement in a research study on swallowing (and the unexpected findings), and the incredibly dynamic nature of our field. From embracing opportunities to learning from failures, Fredās insight is both eye-opening and incredibly motivating!
Tune in and get inspired.

Fred Stal is a Speech-Language Pathologist and Certified Brain Injury Specialist. He completed his initial training and clinical fellowship through Cleveland Clinic Rehabilitation Hospital. Currently, Fred works in the outpatient setting as well as per diem in the acute care setting. He recently published research as a co-author with the NYU Swallowing Research Lab, which was presented by the incredible lead author at the 2024 Dysphagia Research Society conference in Puerto Rico. His main areas of clinical interest include dysphagia management, upper airway disorders, and most of allā¦ all things related to the head and neck cancer population.

The Medical SLP version of a āBattle of the Bandsā would be, without a doubt, a āBattle of the Instrumentals.ā
As in, which is better: MBS or FEES?
The MBS has historically been viewed as the āgold standardā of instrumentals, but a LOT more research has come out about FEES since its introduction into the dysphagia world.
And Dr. Jessica Pisegna is here to talk about it in this weekās episode of The Swallow Your Pride Podcast!
Dr. Pesegna is the section chief at Boston Medical Center of the voice and swallowing center and has worked closely with the one and only Dr. Susan Langmore.
In this episode, we cover:
-When Dr. Pesegna chooses FEES, MBS, or BOTH simultanously.
-What her latest research found when it comes to absent or reduced epiglottic inversion on FEES and what it can mean
-The importance of the brand and color of food dye
-Why FEES should be used in acute care
-The use of residue rating scales and the consistency of clinician ratings.
-Laryngeal sensory testing
-The ice chip protocol and the Frazier Free Water Protocol
-The reliability of Penetration-Aspiration Scale (PAS) on FEES.Prep your barium and get your scopes out, because this episode will leave you motivated to step up your game in the world of instrumental swallow studies!
