Aerodigestive and Swallowing Disorders: Beyond the Oropharynx – Live or Virtual

February 15 @ 7:00 am - 5:00 pm MST

Course Description

Join us for a one-day course exploring the function of the aerodigestive continuum. This course will allow attendees to explore aerodigestive function, dysfunction, and the state of rehabilitation for aerodigestive disorders. The basics of anatomy and physiology of the oropharyngeal and esophageal aspects of swallowing, as well as the interconnections with the pulmonary system, will be explored through an interdisciplinary lens.

Sessions will be dedicated to esophageal function, dysfunction, and testing with a focus on the role of the Speech-Language Pathologist in primary esophageal disorders. The current and future state of interventions, including rehabilitation, for aerodigestive disorders will be reviewed. This exciting and interactive event will provide attendees with a comprehensive educational experience with direct applicability to clinical practice!
