This quartet of SIG 13 articles provides information regarding managing and treating
dysphagia in the adult population. Caileen Harvey, Rachel Flemming, Julia Davis, and
Victoria Reynolds investigate International Dysphagia Diet Standardisation Initiative
implementation issues by surveying health care professionals in health care facilities in
rural Upstate New York. Ankita M. Bhutada, William A. Broughton, Brenda L. Beverly,
Dahye Choi, Sandip Barui, and Kendrea L. (Focht) Garand aim to identify the prevalence
of dysphagia and reflux reported symptoms in patients with obstructive sleep apnea
syndrome and determine associations between symptoms and demographic and clinical
variables. Stevie Marvin summarizes published research on screening, evaluating, and
treating post-extubation dysphagia in the intensive care unit. Rebekah Guastella,
Stefania Oppedisano, Luis F. Riquelme, and Ashwini M. Namasivayam-MacDonald
study bolus location at swallow onset, stage transition, pharyngeal transition duration,
pharyngeal response duration, and pharyngeal phase duration between cued and
uncued swallowing conditions in patients with dementia.
