Through Thick & Thin: Clinical Practices for Thickened Liquids and Blended Tube Feedings at a Large Aerodigestive Center

Description

How long should your patient remain on thickened liquids? How thick is too thick for blended gastrostomy tube feedings? How do you balance NG-tube and oral feedings? Kara Larson and Toni Solari will address these questions and provide a framework for clinical practice for pediatric patients with complex Aerodigestive Disorders from the perspective of the speech language pathologist and dietician.
