Piecemeal Deglutition and the Implications for Pressure Impedance Dysphagia Assessment in Pediatrics
Objectives: High-resolution impedance manometry (HRIM) enables biomechanical swallow assessment. Piecemeal deglutition (PD) defines swallowing of a single bolus in 2 or more portions.

Persistent Feeding and Swallowing Deficits in a Mouse Model of 22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome
Disrupted development of oropharyngeal structures as well as cranial nerve and brainstem circuits may lead to feeding and swallowing difficulties in children with 22q11. 2 deletion syndrome (22q11DS). We previously demonstrated aspiration-based dysphagia
