​workshop.

Learning outcomes that are observable and measurable (e.g. identify, list, discuss, demonstrate, etc.) - (required if the organizers are applying for ASHA CE credit)

1. Participants will review current evidence regarding the physiology of oropharyngeal swallowing.

2. Participants will review clinical (non-instrumental) methods for the assessment of oropharyngeal swallowing, and apply this to the discussion of several different case scenarios.

3. Participants will understand the indications and contra-indications for using videofluoroscopy as an instrumental procedure for evaluating oropharyngeal swallowing physiology;

4. Participants will critically evaluate the steps involved in the videofluoroscopy procedure and explore the issue of using standardized protocols;

5. Participants explore the issue of customizing videofluoroscopy based on clinical bedside assessment, including the selection of compensatory manoeuvres to be trialled;

6. Participants will understand the current evidence behind compensatory interventions for oropharyngeal dysphagia, including risks and benefits;

7. Participants will practice rating oropharyngeal swallowing physiology from videofluoroscopy recordings for several cases, and will be able to benchmark their own identification and severity ratings against those of the instructor and other participants.

8. Participants will critically evaluate the implications of videofluoroscopy findings for treatment planning.

9. Participants will understand current evidence behind different rehabilitative approaches to oropharyngeal swallowing treatment.
