On this episode, I am joined by Jessica Barron. Jessica is an SLP at a Level IV (4) neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Jessica has used NMES extensively on the kiddos in her unit since getting trained several years ago. She estimates that 80% of the patients could benefit from NMES use for their swallowing and eating challenges. Jessica talks about one the many successes she has had using VitalStim - helping a 5 month old with a trach get on the path to successful swallowing and eating.
