Evaluation of a speech pathology service delivery model for patients at low dysphagia risk during radiotherapy for HNC
2019
Purpose
There are no evidence-based guidelines informing which patients with head and neck cancer (HNC) require regular speech pathology (SP) support during radiation treatment (RT). Hence, some services use a “one-size-fits-all” model, potentially over-servicing those patients at low risk for dysphagia. This study evaluated the clinical safety and efficiency of an interdisciplinary service model for patients identified prospectively as “low risk” for dysphagia during RT.
