15. Trastornos aerodigestivos

Descarga el capítulo

El logopeda es el profesional sanitario competente para prevenir, evaluar, diagnosticar e intervenir en los trastornos de las vías aerodigestivas, concretamente en las alteraciones de la voz, la deglución y la respiración, y debe mantener una formación específica y actualizada en este ámbito.

El CLC impulsa la investigación sobre la prevalencia, el impacto funcional, la evaluación y la intervención en los trastornos aerodigestivos, promueve la creación y validación de instrumentos adaptados al contexto lingüístico y cultural en catalán y castellano.

El CLC defiende un abordaje interdisciplinario y basado en la evidencia en el tratamiento de los trastornos aerodigestivos, y fomenta la colaboración entre profesionales y la participación activa de la persona y su entorno. Aconseja evitar prácticas clínicas no fundamentadas científicamente.
