The information provided is interesting and in theory may be useful however they did not provide a way to apply the information from the course into practice. They mention that oral transit time and pharyngeal transit time vary based on age and consistency texted however they do not provide norms. They also do not indicate how this compares with dysphagia in terms of risk for aspiration. Without usable norms and comparison that we all can have easy access to it provides little benefit to the average clinician. It would be helpful if they discuss the studies that evaluated each of these areas and if those studies provided age/sex based normative data as it relates to dysphagia severity. We would also need to know how texture/liquid consistency impacted each of these measures. It may be worth discussing inter/intra reader reliability in regards to some of these methods as the presenters did not appear completely confident measuring laryngeal vestibule closure. More information is needed to apply the measures discussed in this course.

The thorough description of each measure followed with the videos was extremely helpful at reinforcing how to complete each measure. I liked how evidence was provided for each measure, but it wasn't evidence heavy with minimal information on how to obtain each measure. So many classes focus so much on evidence, the application portion is lacking. This course was not this way.

Wonderful assessment tools and explaination of each measure and then how to complete the measurement using video examples. I found these measures helpful and will integrate them into my courses. I would love to see more examples of each measure as my inexperience with viewing the Videofluoro study made it difficult for me to get the exact timing of each measure. Maybe incorporate specific features of each measurement, such as when the presenter mentioned air space for the identification of duration of laryngeal vestibule closure.

The presenters used videos that helped to shed light on a complex topic. The oral transit time part of the presentation was confusing to me in that different researchers use different measures regarding the location of the head vs. the tail of the bolus. The exam consisted of only 5 questions, one of which was about the oral transit time. I appreciated the presentation of measures and videos for infants and adults, and the connections with treatment outcomes was useful to me.

The content of this course was very informative! I really enjoyed the video swallowing studies with the visual reference. I have always been very interested in aspiration and video swallow studies. This course was good because it discussed the oral transit time and the pharyngeal transit time. It also discussed how other factors can impact swallowing and those times such as age or underlying diseases (e.g., Parkinson's Disease). It makes sense that oral transit time takes longer for adults than it does for children just based on the physical structure. It was interesting that there is insufficient evidence to support any one measure. LVST was something I studied heavily in grad school and it was interesting that it increases oral transit time of the bolus. I am familiar with chin tuck and Mendelsohn maneuver but it was good to have a refresher on their effectiveness. PAS review was also refreshing. I find it interesting that healthy adults can show signs of aspiration as well. I have mostly just researched this topic as I work in a public school setting. This webinar was informative and the visual examples were easy to follow and tie to the content of the course.
