Episode 10
Join us today as we approach the topic of dysphagia; an issue that is very prevalent especially in our elderly, inpatient populations.
Take a break from the usual medical approaches, and find out more about how our very specialized speech therapists approach and address the issue of dysphagia.
We are very fortunate to have with us Ms Wong Seng Mun, Senior Principal Speech Therapist from the Singapore General Hospital, to guide us through dysphagia, and swallowing assessments ranging from bedside tests, to videofluoroscopic swallowing studies (VFSS), and even Fiberoptic Endoscopic Evaluation of Swallowing (FEES).
Many thanks to our guest host, Dr Valerie Yeap for taking the time off to organise this episode!
