EP 36: How PES works in clinical practice with Rachel Coates


Listen Later

In this episode, we build on our previous one by exploring the practical, clinical side of pharyngeal electrical stimulation (PES) as a treatment for people with dysphagia. This time we spoke to Rachel Coates, an experienced dysphagia clinician from Ireland who incorporates PES into her daily practice.

Rachel shares her insights into how PES works, the benefits and challenges of using this treatment, and her advice for clinicians considering incorporating PES into their practice. If you are not familiar with PES, we recommend you listen to our previous episode with Shaheen Hamdy first.
