Refresh your knowledge of the anatomy and physiology of adult oropharyngeal swallowing mechanisms, as a foundation for understanding normal and abnormal swallowing function.
Complexity in Language Learning and Treatment
Option(s):
Journal (Online), Journal (Print)
CEUs:
0.3
This journal self-study focuses on complexity in treatment of language deficits. Complexity is discussed as it pertains to treatment of disorders in three language domains: phonological, lexical-semantic, and syntactic. In all domains, greater treatment gains result when more complex rather than simple language material is the focus of treatment.

The DIR®/Floortime™ model provides a developmental, interdisciplinary framework for constructing a comprehensive assessment and intervention program for children with autism spectrum disorders and other related neurological and sensory challenges. This program emphasizes the importance of relating, communicating, and thinking for the whole child within the context of human relationships.
Comprehensive Assessment of Foreign-Accented English
Option(s):
eWorkshop
CEUs:
0.3
Explore the science behind accent modification services, and learn to create comprehensive evaluations of foreign-accented speech in adults (15 years and older) who are learning English as a second language. This program presents current research and provides an overview of the elements needed for a thorough assessment, including professional terminology. Interact with content through audio case studies and self-assessment activities.
Current Trends in Pediatric Cochlear Implantation: Creating Auditory Opportunities
New!
Option(s):
Web Workshop
CEUs:
0.45
This program, designed for audiologists, speech-language pathologists, and teachers of the deaf serving children with hearing loss, will provide information about current trends and best practices in pediatric cochlear implantation and intervention.
Decision Making in Adult Dysphagia
Option(s):
eWorkshop
CEUs:
0.3
It is easy for clinicians in busy medical environments to evaluate swallowing one time, and from one perspective. Patients with multidimensional problems require more than one approach to assessment, and usually more than one profession. But inter- and intraprofessional agreement on swallow physiology and management can be a daunting challenge.
Dysphagia in the Trach/Vent Population
Option(s):
Journal (Online), Journal (Print)
CEUs:
0.4
Speech-language pathologists must consider the complex relationship of tracheostomy and ventilator-dependency with swallowing function in making treatment decisions that consider a patient’s potential aspiration risk. This self-study reviews recent literature related to dysphagia in the trach/vent population, including the pros and cons of tracheostomy, the use of blue dye to detect aspiration risk, and the so-called “trach effect” in pediatric dysphagia.
Dysphagia: State of the Clinical Examination
Option(s):
Journal (Online), Journal (Print)
CEUs:
0.4
With the rapid emergence of new dysphagia treatments, it is more important than ever for speech-language pathologists to make principled decisions to guide best practice until sufficient evidence is available to support new procedures. This self-study reviews the current state of the clinical swallowing examination, evaluates pulse oximetry as an indicator of aspiration, examines the utility of cervical auscultation, and explores the importance of clinical examination and evaluation for children prior to instrumental assessment.
Enhancing Phonological and Metaphonological Skills of Children With Highly Unintelligible Speech (Master Clinician Series)
Option(s):
DVD and Manual, Additional Manual(s)
CEUs:
0.3

Neurogenic Voice and Resonance Disorders: Diagnosis and Treatment
Option(s):
DVD and Manual, Additional Manual(s)
CEUs:
0.4
Many speech-language pathologists see patients during the initial stages of voice and resonance disorders, and often aren't certain how to navigate the symptoms. This multimedia self-study provides current best practices and evidence-based solutions. Clinical and instrumental pathways vital for differential diagnosis of neurogenic voice and resonance disorders (congenital, acquired, and progressive) are reviewed. Vocal fold paralysis and velopharyngeal incompetence (VPI) co-occurring with TBI and CVA, as well as spasmodic dysphonia and differential diagnosis from Parkinson’s, MS, ALS, etc., are key discussions. Current evidence-based practice patterns for behavioral and medical management of congenital, acquired, and progressive neurogenic voice and resonance disorders are also addressed.
