SUMMARY:#306 CAN-EAT Approach …Using medical\, motor\, & therapy strategies in pediatric feeding - Web Conference
DESCRIPTION:Pediatric feeding and swallowing problems that effect infants and children may be complex and often involve a combination of factors including issues that can make eating painful or difficult. In order to successfully remediate feeding problems\, clinicians must understand how medical and nutritional issues can contribute to feeding disorders and use a comprehensive approach to intervention. The CAN-EAT Approach© is a 2-day workshop focusing on medical\, nutritional\, and therapeutic strategies for children with pediatric feeding disorders. \n  \nThis course will allow participants to describe how pediatric feeding disorders are defined in the literature\, what the contributing factors include\, and how this relates to clinical practice. Identify primary gastrointestinal issues (gastroesophageal reflux\, constipation\, motility disorders\, eosinophilic esophagitis\, and visceral hyperalgesia) during a feeding evaluation and explain how these issues affect a child’s feeding skill development and ability to progress. Participants will analyze a child’s oral motor function and apply the knowledge in treatment making recommendations for appropriate diet\, utensil use\, and development of a therapy plan for skill development. Identify signs and symptoms of pharyngeal dysphagia or risk for pharyngeal dysphagia in a child and make appropriate recommendations for further assessment or treatment. Analyze moderate and complex pediatric feeding cases identifying barriers to feeding progression and apply principles to prioritize treatment strategies and write appropriate goals. Describe and apply examples of therapeutic techniques to reduce gagging\, improve liquid and food acceptance\, improve chewing skill\, and wean from a feeding tube. \n  \nIn the CAN-EAT Approach© “CAN” stands for comfort and nutrition which come first. Day one will focus on strategies to build GI comfort and good growth as well as explore other medical issues that interfere with feeding progression. Day two will focus on therapeutic strategies from a variety of philosophies. “EA” represents establishing acceptance of the spoon\, easy textures or mealtime routine. Then “T” stands for therapy for skill development and feeding progression. Therapeutic strategies for common feeding problems will be explored in depth through lecture and video demonstration. \n  \nInformation is applicable to infants and children from birth to 21 (class will discuss infants but is not focused on infant feeding issues) \n  \nInstructor: Krisi Brackett PhD\, CCC-SLP\, C/NDT

SUMMARY:Virtual Workshop | MYOTools 102: Targeting the Four Myo-Domains
DESCRIPTION:Virtual streaming workshops and webinars are recorded during the time of broadcast; THIS WORKSHOP’S RECORDED PRESENTATIONS WILL BE ACCESSIBLE TO PARTICIPANTS UNTIL NOVEMBER 17 through their learner profile on the TalkTools Training site.  \nIn MYOTools 101 the foundation for improved airway health\, sleep\, oral resting posture\,  feeding\, and speech was learned with the MYOScreener tools for assessment\, and beginners were trained to start recognizing orofacial myofunctional students and patients on their own caseloads. \nIn MYOTools 102\, we will take a deeper dive into the form function balance and participants will learn how to start incorporating strategies into therapeutic practice. With Robyn’s extensive background in feeding\, oral placement\, and orofacial myofunctional therapy\, she has a unique approach to targeting the four MYO-Domains of Airway\, Structure\, Feeding\, and Speech across the lifespan. Learn techniques that you can immediately use in your practice such as massage to support open nasal passageways\,  scent training for nasal breathing\, the Sensi Tool for oral placement targets\,  mastication strategies\, bolus collection\, and more. Each domain will be supported by internal and external evidence. \nNOTE: Myotools 101 is not a requirement but is recommended. \n\n\nLearning Outcomes \n\nParticipants will be able to:  \n\nDescribe 2 techniques for improving nasal breathing.\nImplement 2 tactile cues to stimulate improved tongue tip elevation for speech and swallowing.\nCite at least two evidence-based studies that support the use of oral myofunctional therapy.

DESCRIPTION:As therapists\, we are charged with the expectation to improve our client’s ability to complete a task\, master a skill\, or decrease the presentation of an unwanted behavior. Throughout the ever-evolving world of pediatric therapy interventions\, therapists are faced with the challenges of managing behaviors throughout a session. These behaviors can be a combination of age-appropriate behaviors such as refusal behaviors or difficulty transitioning to non-preferred tasks\, but some behaviors can manifest due to a breakdown in communication\, frustration\, sensory concerns\, and inability to effectively communicate basic wants and needs\, among a myriad of other possibilities. \nThrough this course\, you will learn the difference between age-appropriate behaviors and other behaviors\, how to identify the link between communication and behavior\, how to use the ABCs of behavior to prevent negative behaviors and proactively support your client’s needs\, and how to incorporate behavioral techniques into your daily therapy sessions. Join us for a crash course in the interlocking connection between behavior and communication and learn how to better serve your current clients. \nThe content of this program is germane to children\, students and clients ages 0- 10. \nHighlights\n\nAssess age-appropriate behaviors and those rooted in communication breakdown that impact the productivity of a therapeutic session\nInnovative strategies to target negative behaviors to increase success and obtain desired outcomes
