The purpose of this resource is to provide a list and brief summary of the evidence available to support the use of the effortful swallow as part of a dysphagia rehabilitation plan of care. Studies have been conducted in healthy and disordered populations using a variety of outcome measures to determine the effects of the effortful swallow on safety, efficiency, and swallow kinematics. The tables below summarize a select group of studies focused on the effortful swallow.
