Measure
Study
Eligible subjects (study) will undergo diagnostic VFSS in combination with manometry, either concurrent or sequential. They will have parental choice of preferred feeding therapy. Combined Diagnostic testing (VFSS + HRM) + Parent Preferred Therapy: HRM along with diagnostic VFSS with parental choice of therapy
Control
Eligible subjects who had VFSS alone with provider recommendations from the same single center.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 4 weeks

Population: Unable to get growth velocity on all patients as they were not all hospitalized or weight at 4 weeks after study

The investigators will measure and track growth velocity (grams/day) during this time period. This will be completed through chart reviews of weight from subsequent clinic visits and parent interviews.
