Summary
Details

Dysphagia is a complex condition that commonly occurs in individuals with neurodevelopmental and medical disorders and diseases. Swallowing involves sensory input, motor control, and cognitive regulation, which can be disrupted by neurological impairment, abnormalities, or illness. Dysphagia is often observed in populations like individuals with cerebral palsy, autism spectrum disorder, intellectual disability, stroke, or traumatic brain injury. When left unaddressed, dysphagia can lead to serious complications including malnutrition and reduced quality of life. Understanding the impact of dysphagia is essential for early identification, effective intervention, and improved health outcomes. Dysphagia in Neurodevelopmental and Medical Disorders and Diseases: A Lifespan Approach examines swallowing disorders as they occur across a range of neurodevelopmental and medical conditions, from childhood through older adulthood. It explores the mechanisms and causes of dysphagia, diagnostics strategies, intervention approaches, and the impact on nutrition, health, and quality of life. This book covers topics such as neurology, drug delivery, and cognitive science, and is a useful resource for medical and healthcare professionals, academicians, researchers, and scientists.
