Hospital adds fiber optic endoscopic evaluation of swallowing Vidant Chowan Hospital recently added Fiber optic Endoscopic Evaluation of Swallowing FEES! to die impressive array of testing it offers. FEES is an evalu ation that provides infor mation on a patient's ability to safely swallow food and liquids after suffering thn nit trauma from a stroke, or diseases such as ithroati cancer Kristy Worrell. Rehab Manager at Yidant Chowan Hospital, stated. “We are thrilled to offer FEES test ing at Yidant Chowan Hos pital now. The addition of FEES (Equipment will enable pa tients at the hospital to have direct local access to a high definition digital assess ment of oral cavity, larynx, pharynx, and upper esopha geal structures. Previously, patients in this area had to travel 30 miles or more to receive an instrumental as sessment, but FEES can be taken directly to the patient. PTES is portable and can be utilized at the bedside, where patients most often need it. Since many area res idents have limited access to transportation, the addi tion of FEES assessments at Vidant Chowan Hospital will increase access to care for our patients and it will complement existing servic es offered at Vidant Chowan including speech therapy.” Fees tests are admin istered while patients are seated so that they are com fortable. The tube is gently inserted through the nose into the throat. The patient will be given some things to eat and drink, which may be colored (food color ing) so that the foods and liquids are easier to see. The Speech Language Pa thologist (SLP) can see a picture of the throat on the computer screen. The SLP may also test how well the patient feel things in his/her throat. The tube blows puffs of air into your throat. Once the results are in. the patient and the SLP wall talk about what kinds of food and drink are the safest to con sume. Many patients begin swallowing therapy soon after the test. FEES assessments are currently reimbursed by Medicare. Medicaid, and pri vate insurances. In addition, FEES tests, unlike modified barium swallow studies, can be done independently thereby reducing cost to the patient. FEES assessments can be completed by a SLP who has completed a certi fication course.
