“…A range of US equipment was used across the 12 studies. Half of the studies used console devices (Geddes et al ., 2010; Abdelrahman et al ., 2019; Lee et al ., 2018; Ongkasuwan et al ., 2017a, 2017b; Zhang et al ., 2020), four used portable devices (Friedman et al ., 2018, 2019; Haung et al ., 2019; Shaath et al ., 2012) and one study used a handheld device (Sayyid et al ., 2019).

“…Seven of the laryngeal studies used linear probes (Friedman et al, 2018;Huang et al, 2019;Lee et al, 2018;Ongkasuwan et al, 2017aOngkasuwan et al, , 2017bShaath et al, 2012;Zhang et al, 2020). Shaath et al (2012) used both linear and curve linear probes, and a hockey stick probe was used by Lee et al (2018).…”

Background:The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has renewed interest in the use of ultrasound (US) amongst dysphagia-trained clinicians working with infants and children. US is a portable, minimally intrusive tool which carries reduced risk of aerosol-generation provoked by other instrumental swallowing assessment tools such as fibreoptic endoscopic evaluation of swallowing (FEES). For this reason, US could be a valuable addition to the dysphagia assessment toolkit. A recently published rapid review of US evidence for the assessment of swallowing and laryngeal function in the adult population provided a framework for this neonatal and paediatric review. Aims: This enhanced rapid review aimed to establish the applicability of US as an instrumental assessment tool for sucking, swallowing and laryngeal function in the neonatal and paediatric populations. Methods & Procedures:A rapid review of six electronic databases was conducted to identify articles using US to assess sucking, swallowing or laryngeal function in the selected populations, compared with varied reference tests. Abstract screening was completed according to pre-defined inclusion/exclusion criteria with 10% of articles assessed by a second screener. Data was extracted from the included studies using a pre-developed form. A modified QUADAS-2 tool was used to assess study quality. Results from the included studies were summarised and grouped into sucking, swallowing and laryngeal function data. Outcomes & Results: Twelve studies using US in the assessment of swallowing and/or laryngeal function met inclusion criteria. No studies using US for assessment of sucking met the inclusion criteria. All were peer-reviewed, primary studies across a range of clinical populations and with a wide geographical spread. Five studies had an overall low risk of bias. Seven studies had at least one domain where risk of bias was judged as high. All studies had high applicability. The two studies assessing swallowing differed in terms of aims and use of US.

“…Very high resolution images can be obtained of the thyroid, cricoid, and the first few tracheal cartilages (18). Ultrasound is also a promising technique for the noninvasive diagnosis of laryngomalacia (19) and vallecular cysts (20). Although laryngeal function can also be evaluated with CT (21), its use has not become popular in children, perhaps because of concerns about radiation dose to the thyroid gland.…”

Various imaging techniques may be used to diagnose airway obstruction in children. Digital radiography, computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging are the most important modalities, but the choice of technique will depend on the level and nature of suspected obstruction, as well as patient-specific factors such as age and ability to cooperate. This review examines the forms of airway obstruction that are commonly encountered in childhood.

“…2 Airway ultrasound has been successfully used in the diagnosis of vocal cord palsy and, more recently, laryngomalacia, which together account for most cases of congenital stridor. [3][4][5] Other well-known uses of airway ultrasound are to confirm endotracheal intubation and ultrasound-guided cricothyroidotomy. 2 Despite its many advantages, airway ultrasound is largely underused, and many pediatricians remain unaware of its potential in airway assessment and management.…”
