PRODUCT OFFERING #1500 - Box of 12 White, Thin Liquid SafeStraws #1510 - Box of 12 Blue, Thick Liquid SafeStraws #1520 - Variety Pack (6 White and 6 Blue SafeStraws) Patients with oral motor dysfunction have difficulty controlling a liquid bolus and often swallow prematurely causing them to aspirate. SOLUTION SafeStraw limits volume to approximately a teaspoon, or 6.2 ml’s, per sip helping to reduce the likelihood of aspiration by promoting a controllable liquid bolus. RESULTS Limited bolus size helps reduce aspiration risks allowing patients to safely, discreetly, and independently drink from a variety of containers such as cups and bottles. “By limiting volume per suck, it has also prevented aspiration in my patients who have decreased oral motor control following a stroke. It makes my patients feel safe and dignified, as they are able to discreetly use the device in restaurants after leaving the hospital.” - Jennifer Hanners, SLP Refer to the package insert supplied with product for specific information on indications for use, contraindications, warnings, and precautions.
