TENSION IN LABIAL AND BUCCAL
MUSCULATURE
To close anterior and lateral sulci
Patterned motor
response based upon
type of liquid or
food to be swallowed
Food properties:
Texture/ Taste/
Volume
1. Nasopharynx Closure
To prevent backflow of material up the nose
3. Pharyngeal Contraction
To clear residue through the pharynx
4. Airway protection
Laryngeal Elevation and Closure
Shortening in opening
phase of UES, despite
normal relaxation of CP
muscle itself
Biofeedback/teaching
Repeated assessment
Suitability of FEES-Non Exhaustive list
Indications Exercise caution:
Position
BOT/ Valecullae/
Larynx/ Both PFS
HOME position
Allows visualization of
Bolus transit prior to
swallow initiation
WHITEOUT
During BOT/ Velum contact PPW
the
height
Distal tip of endoscope
of trapped transiently against
swallow PPW by velum/BOT
2 Material enters the airway, remains above vocal folds and is ejected from
the airway
3 Material enters the airway, remains above vocal folds, and is not ejected
from the airway
5 Material enters the airway, contacts vocal folds, and is not ejected from the
airway
6 Material enters the airway, passes below vocal folds, and is ejected into the
larynx or out of the airway
7 Material enters the airway, passes below vocal folds, and is not ejected from
the trachea despite effort
8 Material enters the airway, passes below vocal folds, and no effort is made
to eject
