The Yale Swallow Protocol
The Yale Swallow Protocol, based on the 3-Ounce Swallow Test, provides a quick screening method for dysphagia, focusing on cognition and oral motor function. Administering involves giving a patient three ounces of water to drink while observing for signs of aspiration. This tool is easy to teach, though not suitable for all patients.
