Dysphagia
Across
- 2. Rating system for airway invasion severity
- 3. Pooling or residue seen in the valleculae or pyriforms
- 7. Entry of material to the level of the vocal folds, not below
- 8. Delayed initiation of pharyngeal swallow
- 11. Technique to prolong hyolaryngeal elevation
- 13. Cranial nerve for lip closure and taste (anterior tongue)
- 17. Food remaining in the oral cavity after swallow
- 20. Propulsion of bolus from oral cavity through pharynx
- 23. Cranial nerve for sensation to posterior tongue, pharynx, gag
- 24. Cranial nerve for jaw movement and sensation
- 26. Degree of pharyngeal wall contraction
Down
- 1. Cavity lateral to larynx, a common site for residue
- 4. Posterior movement needed to propel the bolus
- 5. Pharyngoesophageal segment opening
- 6. Material left in pharyngeal spaces post-swallow
- 9. Upward movement of the larynx during swallow
- 10. Combined upward/forward movement of hyoid and larynx
- 12. Momentary loss of view during pharyngeal swallow
- 14. Entry of material below the vocal folds
- 15. Maneuver to increase muscle contraction
- 16. Protective reflex response to aspiration
- 18. Cohesive mass of food or liquid ready for swallowing
- 19. Space between base of tongue and epiglottis
- 21. Cranial nerve for tongue movement
- 22. Chewing process that forms the bolus
- 25. Cranial nerve for laryngeal movement, pharyngeal constriction
