The Bionix SafeStraw allows healthcare providers to safely manage swallowed liquid volume and help reduce aspiration occurrence in patients with oral motor dysfunction. These patients have difficulty controlling a liquid bolus and often swallow prematurely, causing them to aspirate. SafeStraw limits volume to 6.2 mls per sip, providing a controllable liquid bolus. Limited bolus size allows patients to safely, discreetly, and independently drink from a variety of containers such as cups and bottles.
Reduces likelihood of aspiration with a controllable liquid bolus.
Two versions allow use with either thin or thick fluids. |
Discreet drinking tool fits in a variety of containers and can be taken anywhere. |

“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
