Mobile FEES in Las Vegas, NV

WHAT DO WE DO?

MOBILE FEES


FEES is an instrumental examination performed by a qualified and licensed speech-language pathologist (SLP). Typically, FEES is ordered by a physician whose patient presents with dysphagia (a swallowing disorder). FEES is a reliable instrumental examination that provides a comprehensive assessment of the upper aerodigestive functions of swallowing. FEES assesses anatomical structures involved in the pharyngeal phase of swallowing, assesses physiology and sensation of those anatomical structures within the pharynx, aids in the assessment of secretions severity and secretion management, provides direct-assessment of swallowing of food and liquid, and assesses the response to therapeutic maneuvers and interventions designed to improve swallow physiology. Mobile services available statewide.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

  • Does the FEES procedure hurt?

    No, the procedure does not hurt. Sometimes people report that it is uncomfortable, but most of the time, when the exam is done correctly, patients do not seem to notice any discomfort. Many patients we have examined will say things like "That's it?" or "Oh, that wasn't so bad!"

  • Are your procedures safe?

    Yes, although there are always risks with any procedure. The risks with the FEES procedure are minimal. Patients may not be appropriate for the examination if they are severely agitated, have a cardiac disorder, history of vasovagal episodes (fainting), history of epistaxis (nosebleeds), recent facial trauma, or obstructed nasal passages. All of these may result in complications during a procedure.

  • Do you use any anesthesia during the procedures?

    No, we do not recommend the use of anesthesia as it may affect the reliability of the swallow study. We can, if desired, use a non-anesthetic lubricant through the nose if necessary.
