Manage episode 475839376 series 1142674
In this special episode from the QUAD Conference hosted by Cincinnati Children’s, Lizzy Lee takes us inside one of the world’s largest and most advanced multidisciplinary programs for children with complex airway and digestive conditions: the Aerodigestive and Esophageal Center (ADEC).
You'll hear from a diverse team of specialists—including speech-language pathologists, ENTs, GI, pulmonologists, and pediatric surgeons—who collaborate to manage complex conditions like esophageal atresia, TEF, chronic aspiration, GERD, and swallowing disorders.
Key Highlights:
- Speech Pathology: VFSS, FEES, manometry, and innovative approaches to swallowing therapy
- Pulmonology: Airway clearance, aspiration management, bronchoscopy, and ventilator weaning
- ENT Perspective: Stratifying airway risk and managing vocal fold and structural anomalies
- Gastroenterology: Managing GERD, motility, EOE, and feeding disorders
- Surgical Insight: Feeding access, tracheopexy, and complex lung or airway repairs
The episode is a masterclass in how cross-specialty teamwork leads to better diagnostics, better surgeries, and better long-term outcomes for children with aerodigestive disorders.
