Thickened Liquids Improve Infant Swallow Function as Measured by Penetration‐Aspiration Scale Score on Videofluoroscopic Swallow Study

Thickened liquids are commonly used to treat oropharyngeal dysphagia in infants but the extent to which each viscosity improves swallow function is not well understood. Our objective was to determine improvements in swallow function with provision of thickened liquids as measured by penetration-aspi...
