What does the laryngeal vestibule do?

Squeezes completely during swallowing, causing the muscles to come together and contract the “space.”

New cards

What are the levels of airway protection?

  1. Epiglottic inversion

  2. Ary-epiglottic closer that helps with the vestibule squeeze

  3. False vocal fold adduction

  4. True vocal fold adduction

Why would there be aspiration DURING swallowing?

Because 1 of the 4 airway protections is failing.
