Much is known about swallowing problems in terms of what might be done to fix or ameliorate things from a biomechanical or physiological perspective. We can also recite the mantra of evidence-based practice in our sleep. And yet decisions and interventions are still fraught with tension, anxiety and sometimes even conflict. The Concise Guide to Decision Making and Ethics in Dysphagia explains why decision in dysphagia are difficult, what frameworks might help structure a more robust process, and links evidence to ethics to cases. The reader is guided through theoretical principles of risk analysis and bioethics to support real clinicians dealing with patients, their families, and carers on a day-to-day basis. A substantial list of references guides the reader to the evidence base and source material to support students and clinicians at all levels.
