RSMT Journal Club - Meagan Hamous

In this Journal Club episode, we dive into the evidence behind Expiratory Muscle Strength Training (EMST) and its impact on swallowing function. We review the systematic review, Effects of Expiratory Muscle Strength Training on Videofluoroscopic Measures of Swallowing, authored by Renata Mancopes, Sana Smaoui, and Catriona M. Steele.Together, we break down how EMST has been studied using videofluoroscopic swallowing measures and where the current evidence remains limited. Presented by Meagan Hamous, this episode is ideal for clinicians, researchers, and students looking to critically appraise the literature and translate evidence into practice.
