All Things Passy-Muir Speaking Valve

Michelle is joined by Kristin King, Ph.D., CCC-SLP, Vice President of Clinical Education and Research for Passy Muir. To continue “Dysphagia Awareness Month,” First Bite is overjoyed to have Dr. King for a conversation on the impact of tracheostomies and dysphagia. Dr. King debunks common myths, then sets the facts straight with how a Passy Muir Speaking valve recreates a closed pressure system, thereby improving opportunities for phonation, cough responses, and even pooping. Tune in to learn more about pediatric tracheostomies, one-way pressure valves, and how they can positively impact a little one with pediatric dysphagia.
