Question 1 of 550 correct so far

A special educator is feeding a 2-year-old with cerebral palsy who is on a pureed diet with thickened liquids. During the meal, the child begins coughing repeatedly, and the educator notices the child's voice sounds wet and gurgly after swallowing. The educator recognizes these as signs of a feeding concern. What do these signs most likely indicate?

A.The child is experiencing typical gagging behavior associated with the texture of pureed food

B.The child has a mild upper respiratory infection

C.The child is demonstrating oral-motor fatigue from the length of the meal

D.The child may be aspirating—food alongside liquid may be entering the airway—which is a serious safety concern requiring the meal to stop with immediate communication with the family and SLP
