Dysphagia by Michael E Groher
Numerous health care specialists are involved in the management of swallowing disorders, including speech pathologists, occupational therapists, nurses, dietitians, gastroenterologists, neurologists, otolaryngologists, and radiologists. This unique and important book, now in its third edition, approaches management of the patient with a swallowing impairment from each of these perspectives, giving the reader a solid understanding of how each contributes to the total care of the patient.
would like more specific checklists for students Information was good overall, but the writing style was extremely technicalIt was hard for me to sgtay focused...I wonder how undergrads would do!? Practical and informative from a diagnostic as well as management perspective; the only "stand alone" text for dysphagia. Very well organized, good clinically relevant chapters, wide range of experts. Much improved over previous edition; glad to see a section on MBS; would like to see swallowing problems in TBI discussed. The "edited" nature (vs. "authored") of the book makes it less appropriate for students -- they need a systematic and integrated text; good reference.
