Swallow Physiology Masterclass
Tier 1: Normal Swallowing and Tier 2: Abnormal Swallowing
An important part of evidence-based practice is clinical expertise. Yet, many clinicians do not have the tools to gather, interpret, and apply their clinical data to understand trends in patient outcomes and justify clinical decisions. The Swallow Physiology Masterclass with Ianessa Humbert, Ph.D. aims to remedy this!
Masterclass Tier 1: Normal Swallow Physiology introduces learners to clinical data collection, focusing on data that can be derived from clinical swallow evaluations and modified barium swallow studies. Tier 1 includes 2.5 hours of recorded lectures, focused on normal swallow physiology, which helps clinicians better understand swallow timing measures with the Videofluoroscopic Interpretation of Physiology (VIP) training program.
Masterclass Tier 1: Normal Swallow Practice Portal includes hands-on practice (approximately 16 hours of training) conducting swallowing timing measures on a series of normal swallow MBS studies and a 30-minute consultation with Dr. Humbert. Completion of Normal Swallow Physiology is a pre-requisite for the Normal Swallow Practice Portal course.
Masterclass Tier 2: Abnormal Swallowing introduces learners to scientific thinking, clinical decision-making, and clinical data collection in individuals with disordered swallowing. Tier 2 includes 3.5 hours of recorded lectures and a practice gallery focusing on interpreting MBS studies in individuals with swallowing disorders with the VIP training program. Completion of Swallow Physiology Masterclass Tier 1: Normal Swallowing (recorded lectures and practice portal) is strongly encouraged before enrolling in Swallow Physiology Masterclass Tier 2.

Amazing dive into re-evaluating how you are doing things, physiology and the importance of timing measures!

I really enjoyed this course and feel I have learned so much. I have been completing MBS and CSE for about 10 years and this course is opening my eyes to how to improve my use and interpretation of both. Highly recommend!

Contents relevant to my practice and will encourage my coworkers to take the masterclass series.

Great course! I learned to view biomechanical events of swallowing objectively like never before and am looking forward to understanding how to use this information to assess abnormal swallow biomechanics.

Very useful, I like the objective data with some variance built in for normal swallowing differences. Would have liked a few more examples done together prior to practicing the ratings as I found myself having to go back quite a bit to make sure I...
Read MoreVery useful, I like the objective data with some variance built in for normal swallowing differences. Would have liked a few more examples done together prior to practicing the ratings as I found myself having to go back quite a bit to make sure I was judging at the correct time. I've only done the pudding swallows so far, so I feel that it will get easier as I continue on. My eyes may be crossing a little, but am enjoying it!
Read LessI would almost say this is Basic Swallowing 101: A great beginning! It was really excellent.

How was this not part of my graduate education??
Stephanie Rimroth
This provided me fundamental understanding of concepts I was not just missing but wrongly documenting - this should be a requirement for all grad students. I wish it had been for me.
