Clinical Management of Swallowing Disorders Workbook

A companion to the core text, this essential self-testing workbook will help reinforce your understanding of the anatomy and key concepts covered in the dysphagia/swallowing course in speech-language pathology programs!

The sixth edition of the Clinical Management of Swallowing Disorders Workbook is designed to enhance and reinforce student comprehension of the content in the graduate-level textbook, Clinical Management of Swallowing Disorders, Sixth Edition.  The workbook helps students review chapter material for the challenging swallowing coursework, and quiz themselves in an efficient manner.

The spiral-bound workbook mirrors the content of the text’s 13 chapters, and contains true or false, multiple-choice, matching, and fill-in-the-blank questions. Unlabeled versions of the anatomical illustrations from the text are included so students can label them to help assimilate the information and make visual associations with key terminology.  Also included are thought-provoking student projects. 

The second section of the workbook has answers to all the questions, so students can check their progress.

Once all the chapter answers are completed, the workbook can be used as a student study guide or a quick reference for clinicians in practice.
