FEES Vs. MBSS For Oropharyngeal Dysphagia

Studies indicate that the knowledge of swallowing disorders amongst the masses is considerably low. In this educational video, otolaryngologist Dr. Dinesh Chhetri and speech pathologist Andrew Erman discuss the most common causes of oropharyngeal dysphagia such as neuromuscular disorders due to Parkinson’s disease and radiation therapy, as well as the most common evaluation procedures that currently exist i.e., Flexible Endoscopic Evaluation of Swallowing (#FEES) and Modified Barium Swallow Study (MBSS). Through a demonstration, Dr. Chhetri provides a detailed understanding of the FEES procedure.
So, between FEES and MBSS which procedure is better for the assessment of oropharyngeal dysphagia? Watch the video to find out.
