Anatomy & Physiology of swallowing function as narrated by Bonnie Martin-Harris, PhD, CCC-SLP. Swallow animations taken from the MBSImP Standardized Training & Reliability Testing. Learn more at www.NorthernSpeech.com/mbsimp
Watching this because I have found myself developing a phobia of swallowing certain foods from fear of choking because I sometimes felt food got stuck or went back the wrong way. Now the phobia has played into it's own hands by disrupting swallowing almost constantly, which increases tension and anxiety and in turn further worsens the disruption. Horrible.
@@maxmeier787 I have been fine lately. It came and went, but it has been coming and going before so I do worry it will return. I don't know whether I am having a physical issue when it occurs and it triggers fear of choking that in turn disrupts the swallowing process itself. I came to accept that moving food into the back of the throat first doesn't automatically mean it will fall right down into my windpipe. I still avoid dry food or stuff that doesn't swallow as easily unless butchered via excessive chewing, though. I hope you start to feel better.
@@maxmeier787 you don’t need to practise! I’m the same as you since 2014 when I glugged from a bottle of liquid and some went deep down the trachea and I really thought I was dying. Coughing was useless because it had gone so far down towards the lungs. I was on the floor thinking (almost calmly) that I was a gonna. After a long 30 seconds or so I managed to recover but ever since I am wary of swallowing liquid. It’s not a matter of practising as I said. It’s as you said the body knows what to do! Best wishes.
Thank you for this excellent material! I would like to gently ask if may I have permission for using this image in my classes at a public University in Brazil called Universidade Federal Fluminense, where I work as professor? Thanks a lot. Sincerely,
Francelise, Thank you for your request. Since this video is public, you may use it in your class. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask. Have a great day!
@@NorthernSpeech I was going to ask the same thing about a course I am developing for Cambodia's first ever Uni short course on dysphagia (with the NGO Speech Therapy Cambodia). Thank you for making this available!

my CT 3D reconstruction shows the hyoid bone΄s right cornu separated from its base. could a videofluoroscopy picture a cornu if moving separately from its base during shallowing process?
I have a dislocated hyoid bone, where it is pulled down and sitting on the thyroid cartilage, from a botched plastic surgery that surgeons are not certain to confirm even though two orthopedic doctors are certain just from palpating the area. Can a swallow test illustrate the action and position of the hyoid bone?
can you possible explain what im having?.. sometime food stock i dont know where but somewhere back in my trout. a piece or rice for example. . and its comeout a few days. i dont know if its connected in my nasal..
not exactly. esophagogram is designed to evaluate esophagus. VFS is focused in evaluating oral, pharyngeal and upper esophageal phases of swallowing with different volumes and viscosities...
How does it handle nacho cheese, or other complex foods like creamy things. Or foods with little bits of food in the creamy liquids. It's scary, because I don't understand how it can handle such substances.
If you experience difficulty with swallowing certain food textures we recommend scheduling a consultation with a Speech-Language Pathologist in your area.
I was operated on cervical vertebrae to decompress the spinal cord sixty years ago. When I eat sometimes food goes into windpipe causing great embarrassment.Is there a remedy? Reply please
did you have any symptoms from having the barium to the wind pipe leading to the lungs. Hope you worked it out. I read that is not a good thing to happen.
With permission of Dr. Martin-Harris I would like to tell you that the most important fact about pharyngeal phase of swallowing is that all the larynx goes up and forward and "hides" below tongue-base.... with or withous epiplottis, if this movement is intact (should be in your case), you wouldn´t have trouble. But, if you can improve and prehabilitate your swallowing do "masako" exercise and CTAR exercise. In my opinion. Good luck!!
I'm sorry for the stupid question, but is it possible to breathe through your nose while eating? I just think that I’ll be glad to breathe through my nose, then the food will get into my lungs, isn’t that right?
I do the same. Apparently it's something called reverse swallowing? And it puts more strain on your muscles? So I'm watching a bunch of videos to learn to swallow properly.
@@toplobster1040 I think so? I did it while I had tonsilitis and it made it a lot less painful. I still have to actively think when I do it though, and I'm better with liquids than solids. Keep your tongue at the roof of your mouth until you swallow, then kind of move your tongue like a wave from front to back, pushing the liquid back with it.
Struggling to swallow liquids it goes down and then it just stays there for hours never going down if I take 10 ml of water after an hour I can bring up 10ml of water but solids are going down however if I leave the water and try to take solids the liquid stops the solids from going down if I drink something at night if I fall of to sleep a few minutes later I up coughing because the waters making it's way back to my mouth
ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-SBbNxM7g2vg.html i have watched so many animations about swallowing but there is no the part belonging to the esophagus under the epiglottis... there is only epiglottis. the part with the yellow dot; that is, the part belonging to the esophagus moves directly under the epiglottis. so can i say it means a " double protection " of the trachea or double cover?
Thank you for your question. If you are experiencing difficulty with swallowing, we recommend that you meet with your primary care physician or reach out to a Speech-language Pathologist in your area for assessment and consultation.
SLP consult...there may be some exercises/strategies of benefit to you, but i'd recommend an evaluation by a SLP w/ experience in swallowing disorders to make the most appropriate recommendations. hope this helps!
I also recommend a 3D interactive model of how swallowing works though a different YT channel called intuitive anatomy: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-EeZKBHnN7Zg.html
I swear to God 🙏🏾 in Jesus name having problems swallowing foods and drink is the most hardest time of my life can't eat or drink people telling u to eat and drink u think Dr telling u the wrong thing then u get mad 😡 and angry with world 🌎 cause u can't eat or even drink
