Great tool, it’s just hard to narrate when you’re not the one controlling the pointer

I use this app several times a week to provide patient and caregiver education after MBS studies. I find it especially helpful to have them watch the normal lateral view video and share their initial observations, followed by the example with aspiration and penetration. I usually begin by pointing out the anatomy before viewing and then reinforcing what their own eyes are teaching them about how swallow physiology works. This has saved so much time in education sessions and helps people understand what they’re seeing when I show them their own imaging. When I can point to something happening on the video and say “this is what I saw happening in your study,” it helps people understand that we’re focusing on a specific problem.

I use this app on my phione to do a quick inservice to patients, families, nursing , CNA personel and Students in the field of Dysphagial. Every little inservice I do, the person/patient always states they have a greater underdstanding about normal swallow and the Dysphagia that they are experiencing, or what the individual patient with Dysphagia can drink or eatr, or to remain NPO.Mary Whitney Valantine M.S.

I’ve been using this app for years and still enjoy it. It provides so much info to my patients and their families on what I look for and how the swallow works. It provides great photos and a slow motion ability to help them understand all the structures involved in a safe swallow.
