Practical Interpretation of Laryngeal Videostroboscopy: A Case-Based Primer

PRESENTER: Michael Johns, MD

AUDIENCE: Undergraduate, graduate students, Clinical Fellows, Clinicians, novice and experienced SLPs and SLPs who would like to transition from school-based SLP to medical-based SLP.

Description: This one hour session will introduce the listeners to a practical approach to interpretation of laryngeal endoscopy with videostroboscopy. A framework for critical assessment of voice to predict laryngeal pathology will be presented. Following this, a case-based approach will be used to describe application of the 4 “M’s” approach to laryngeal endoscopy with videostroboscopy interpretation: Masses, Mucosa, Movement, “Mucosal Wave”.

Objectives:
Following completion of this session, participants will be able to:
1) Describe a framework for critical assessment of voice to predict laryngeal pathology
2) Demonstrate basic interpretation of laryngeal videostroboscopy
3) See how a laryngologist applies interpretation of laryngeal videostroboscopy to make a diagnosis

Description of Webinar
Have you wondered why some people “buy-in” to their dysphagia therapy and others do not? Buy-in consists of willingness, acceptance, and agreement, which are critical for participation in therapy. Effective rehabilitation and management of dysphagia requires buy-in from the person, their family, and the clinician. This webinar will discuss techniques and tools to leverage for facilitating buy-in and ultimately support the person’s goals.

Learning Objectives:
1) Describe components to support buy-in for optimizing therapy effectiveness, encompassing a person-centered approach.
2) Learn models to implement for assessing readiness to change, engagement and goal realization.
3) Review evidence-based approaches to maximize adherence based on predictors and modifiable factors to increase adherence.
