About the Data. The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, in cooperation with private, state, and federal partners, has produced a new 398 class, 10 meter spatial resolution land classification map for Texas.

Expiratory muscle strength training (EMST) is an evidence-based treatment for dysphagia, voice, and more. Read the article to learn how to do EMST speech therapy exercises with your patients!

The Texas Ecosystem Analytical Mapper, TEAM, delivers the Ecological Mapping Systems of Texas (EMS) data to Texas citizens in an easy to use format. The TEAM application is an interactive mapping tool that assists users in understanding the Texas Landscape and integrates EMS data with land management and resource planning of all types.

Expiratory muscle strength training (EMST) involves forcible blowing as a means of genera@ng high expiratory pressure, against adjustable resistance. EMST has recently been introduced as a poten@al treatment for dysphagia. This study was performed to inves@gate the effects of EMST on the ac@vity of

Objectives: To assess current evidence of expiratory muscle strength training (EMST) on maximum expiratory pressure, cough flow and spirometry. Data sources: Databases including CINAHL, Medline, Science Direct and PEDRo were searched.

2020年2月7日 · Our aim was to be able to describe the effects of EMST on swallowing both at a functional level (i.e., measures of swallowing safety and efficiency) and at a mechanistic level (i.e., other measures of swallowing physiology visible on videofluoroscopy), in order to provide clinicians with evidence about the features of swallowing that are most ...

Objective/hypothesis: Expiratory muscle strength training (EMST) is a simple, inexpensive, device-driven exercise therapy. Therapeutic potential of EMST was examined among head and neck cancer survivors with chronic radiation-associated aspiration.

2025年2月3日 · Data were analysed by masked clinicians using specialised software. Mixed-model repeated measures and t-tests were performed. Result: Lee Silverman Voice Treatment resulted in greater effects in acoustic aerodynamic voice measures (loudness, pitch-range, and aerodynamic-efficiency; p < .05) compared to the Expiratory Muscle Strength Training group.

2019年6月13日 · This review aimed to assess and synthesise current EMST data and determine the effect of EMST on expiratory strength, pulmonary function and cough. Nine studies examined MEP as a primary outcome measure and, despite differences in intervention protocols, meta-analysis indicated a small but statistically significant increase in MEP following EMST.

This downloadable toolkit includes all the information you need to know about the popular EMST 150, including: Clinical data: Evidence-based outcomes. Instructions for use and 5-week training programme. EMST – “Your Questions Answered” handout. …

TxDOT has modified the vegetation data from the Ecological Mapping Systems of Texas for contractors using geographic information systems to plan, build, and manage roadways. TxDOT added layers to the vegetation data developed by the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department.

This review synthesises current EMST data on expiratory strength, pulmonary function and cough. Despite differences in intervention protocols, meta-analysis indicated a small but statistically significant increase in maximum expiratory pressure following training. Few studies included secondary outcome measures of pulmonary

Methods: Participants with MS were randomized to a five-week breathing practice of either positive pres-sure load (EMST) or near-zero pressure (sham). We compared baseline to post-treatment data according to maximum expiratory pressure (MEP), abnormal airway penetration and aspiration (PAS), and SWAL-QOL.

2020年12月17日 · This feasibility study examined the safety, tolerability, and impact of expiratory muscle strength training (EMST) combined with respiratory–swallow coordination training (RST) in comparison to EMST alone, and no treatment on pulmonary function, cough function, surrogates of swallow function, and diaphragm thickness in a pre–post small case ...

EMST is a rehabilitation approach which uses a device to exercise and increase the maximal pressure of the expiratory muscles. These muscles are important for breathing out forcefully, coughing, and swallowing.

2010年7月25日 · The Euclidean minimum spanning tree (EMST) is a fundamental and widely studied structure. In the approximate version we are given an n -element point set P in R d and an error parameter ε > 0, and the objective is to compute a spanning tree over P whose ...

2020年2月7日 · We conducted a systematic review to appraise and synthesize evidence regarding the effects of EMST on videofluoroscopic measures of swallowing in individuals with medical diagnoses, in which dysphagia is a concern.

Intercostal catheter insertion for chest trauma performed in accordance with EMST guidelines has a low complication rate. Prehospital prophylactic chest decompression for ventilated patients with chest trauma, using a lateral rather than an anterior approach, may decrease the incidence of …
