Dysphagia Treatment Device KM250

What To Expect When You Are Receiving KM250 Therapy 
If you’ve been diagnosed with dysphagia, you probably have a lot of questions. Dysphagia is defined as difficulty in swallowing. Patients with dysphagia may exhibit signs of penetration or aspiration (food or liquid getting into the lungs), muscle weakness and difficulty managing a normal diet. An impaired swallow often results in feeding restrictions, which in turn contribute to a decline in quality of life.

Delivering optimized dysphagia patient outcomes through education and technology.
KM250 provides dysphagia patients with the treatment they deserve and therapists with the support they need.  Research shows that the use of neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) relieves patients of the emotional, physical, and financial burdens of feeding tubes—allowing a return to normalcy.  It also creates an opportunity for therapists to not only manage their patients’ difficulties, but also to overcome them.

Product Overview 
KM250 offers customizable NMES treatment to optimize patient care that's specific to their needs. Phase duration, frequency, and work/rest time can all be independently set for up to (2) concurrent channels, effectively targeting stimulation that more naturally mimics swallowing.

Who Is A Typical Patient? 
Typical patient categories include, but are not limited to: 
• Stroke 
• Various other neuromuscular disease processes (e.g., Parkinson’s, ALS, etc.) 
• Head and neck cancer (post radiation) and/or surgery 
• Deconditioning as a result of age or disease

Am I A Candidate For KM250 Therapy? 
If you show signs of aspiration or have difficulty managing your diet, you may be a candidate for dysphagia therapy. Look for one or more of the following signs and symptoms: 
• Coughing/clearing throat after swallowing 
• Abnormal volitional cough 
• Decreased voice quality (wet, hoarse, weak) 
• Recurring chest infections 
• Multiple swallows or special maneuvers required to clear throat 
• Difficulty completing a meal 
• Feeling of food being stuck in the throat 
• Modified diet required (thickening, pureeing food; soft solids) 
• Difficulty initiating a swallow 
• Spilling food or liquid from lips and/or drooling
