Effortful Swallow Purpose: Improve the contact and coordination between the different muscles used while swallowing. Dysphagia management often involves the implementation of compensatory strategies and/or rehabilitation exercises to optimise a person's swallow safety and efficiency (Easterling, Citation 2017).Voluntary pharyngeal swallowing manoeuvres are commonly used to alter pharyngeal physiology and bolus flow (Logemann, Citation 2008).The effortful swallow is frequently employed in . https://doi.org/10.1007/s00455-014-9551-8, Riquelme, L.
