MDTP is a systematic exercise-based approach to dysphagia therapy in adults. Rather than a specific technique, MDTP is a framework from which to provide individualized therapy to adults patients. This one-day intermediate course introduces participants to the conceptual basis of MDTP, provides the results of initial clinical studies documenting functional and physiologic benefits from MDTP interventions, describes in detail the components of MDTP, and provides step by step instruction for the evaluation and treatment of patients receiving the MDTP approach. Presented by Lisa LaGorio, Ph.D., MPH, CCC-SLP; Diane Longnecker, M.S., CCC-SLP, BCS-S; Yvette McCoy, M.S., CCC-SLP, BCS-S; Jessica Gregor, M.S., CCC-SLP; Mary Burns, M.S., CCC-SLP; and Sarah Dungan, M.S., CCC-SLP.
