ACP - Synchrony
DESCRIPTION
Helps patients suffering from DysphagiaSynchrony is a comprehensive clinical program for the treatment of Dysphagia. The program includes evidence-based protocols, proprietary technologies, courses for SLPs that offer ASHA CEUs, and ongoing support for post-acute and chronic rehabilitation providers. The Synchrony program uses an exclusive electrical stimulation waveform called PENS or Patterned Electrical Neuromuscular Stimulation to enhance muscle strength and coordination required for normal swallowing. This patented approach is used in conjunction with the world's first virtual reality augmented sEMG biofeedback system for the treatment of Dysphagia. This unique technology, called the OMNIsEMG, enables Speech Language Pathologists and their patients to visualize swallowing activity, and guide therapeutic intervention. Patients participate in a variety of virtual reality based exercise activities that are therapeutic, fun, and engaging. While immersed in these activities, patients exercise for longer periods with greater intensity, which can help improve swallowing performance and outcomes.
