Patient Information from MassTex Imaging, LLC Regarding Consent for a Dysphagia Consultation including Modified Barium Swallow & Esophageal Assessment to Stomach Your physician has ordered a Dysphagia Consultation which may include a Modified Barium Swallow & Esophageal Assessment to the Stomach via videofluoroscopy. This order has been sent to MassTex Imaging, LLC, a Mobile Medical Practice. A Dysphagia Consultation including MBSS and Esophageal Assessment to the Stomach will only be carried out with verbal or written consent provided by you or your health care proxy (if invoked). What is a Dysphagia Consultation, Modified Barium Swallow and Esophageal Assessment to the Stomach? A Modified Barium Swallow (MBSS) and Esophageal Assessment to the Stomach are video x-rays that allow us to examine your oral, pharyngeal and esophageal swallow mechanisms. Video x-rays (Videofluoroscopy) allow us to watch you swallow as it happens by watching liquid and food mixed with barium travel from your mouth into the stomach. These assessments will provide information about the cause of your swallowing difficulty and whether food or liquids are going into your airway. As part of the consultation, this information is then used by our clinical team to recommend how best to improve your safety and comfort while swallowing. Additionally, this information is also used to help plan your swallowing therapy plan of care. What will happen? Our mobile medical clinic will come to your location. Our driver technician will bring you onto our mobile clinic and you will be seated beside the x-ray machine. You will not be asked to lie down. Family members and your medical team are welcome to attend with your permission. The MassTex Imaging Speech Pathologist will give you foods and liquids to swallow. These food and liquids will be mixed with barium. Barium is used because it is easily seen under x-ray. Barium is chalky but not unpleasant and you will only be given small amounts. You may be asked or helped to change your position on the seat. Our physician will record each swallow digitally. Our Physician will exam you as well as review your medical record to determine health risks that may increase your risk of developing an aspiration pneumonia, review the medications you are currently taking to determine if they may affect your swallow mechanism, recommended further consultations as needed and provide diet, strategies and therapy recommendations to help you and your medical team manage any swallowing problems identified. Once the consultation is concluded you will be shown back to your room. The Physician and Speech Pathologist will then type a detailed report. These reports along with a DVD with audio of your videofluoroscopy x-ray exams will be sent to your medical team and referring physician. Are there any risks or side-effects? This is a painless procedure and you may eat and drink normally before and after your appointment. Barium is harmless. It can cause a little constipation but this can be avoided by drinking plenty of fluid for the rest of the day after your consultation. Your stools may be paler than usual for the next few days. This is nothing to be alarmed about. It is just the barium passing through your system. All x-ray procedures involve some exposure to radiation and, as such, pose a degree of risk. Everyone is exposed to natural background radiation from the environment throughout their lives. One in 3 people will develop cancer at some point in their lives due to many various causes including environmental radiation. Radiation from a medical procedure involving x-rays can add very slightly to this risk. The length and level of exposure to radiation from x- rays in medical procedures is very strictly controlled and is kept to the minimum amount possible. The added risk of cancer due to this radiation is extremely small. Your doctor has determined that the risk to your health of not having this procedure is considerably greater than the risk from the radiation used. How is my medical information disclosed? Your verbal or written consent gives MassTex Imaging, LLC authorization to use and disclose your medical information to bill and collect payment for services and to release the dysphagia consultation and radiological exams to you referring medical team. Swallow studies may be used for research, publication and/or educational purposes. No identifying information will be disclosed for research/education or publication without written consent from you, maintaining strict confidentiality and HIPPA guidelines. If you have any inquiries or require further information about your upcoming Dysphagia Consultation please contact us at 800.508.MBSS (6277) or 978.750.0300 and we would be happy to answer any questions.
