Communication and Swallowing Management of Tracheostomized and Ventilator Dependent Adults (Dysphagia Series)by Karen J. Dikeman
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:This comprehensive manual provides a clinical, yet practical, approach to treating tracheostomized and ventilator-dependent patients. It provides the learner with clinical and case research information and encourages him/her to apply that information to their patient's needs on an individualized basis, rather than employing a "cook book" approach to treatment. Emphasis is also placed on individualizing treatment and assessment protocols. The organizational structure is conducive to learning, as information builds on itself progressively from chapter to chapter. Book News Annotation:The foreword writer comments that "the best of clinical practice is
science on the run." As members of the professional group which has
assumed leadership in the vent team's assessment and rehabilitation
of such disorders, these New York-area speech- language pathologists
specializing in the management of adults with neurological and
respiratory impairments cover respiratory/phonary system anatomy and
physiology; policies, competencies, and procedures required for safe,
effective treatment in long-term and home care settings; and
bioethical concerns. Includes case examples, a glossary, resources, a
communication needs assessment form, a sample evaluation form, a blue
dye tracking sheet, and illustrations. No date is given for the first
edition.
Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com) Review:"The quality of the book is exceptional. It is an excellent tool for a practicing speech-language pathologist in a medical or rehabilitative setting and also for those in academia. It provides the reader with a core foundation of not only disordered respiratory and phonatory systems but also normal systems from which to gain a better understanding of how to provide treatment. The chapter on non-oral communication is extensive and extremely helpful for not only ventilator-dependent adults but those with other debilitating neurological impairments. It was important to produce a second edition due to the advances speech-language pathologists have made in the management of dysphagia and the inclusion of therapists on interdisciplinary teams." -- Catherine Baer Coleman, Divine Synopsis:Includes bibliographical references (p. 377-388) and index.
