BackgroundWe aimed to define normative values for novel pressure topography metrics for high‐resolution pharyngeal‐esophageal manofluorography. The effects of age, gender, and bolus properties were examined.
MethodsConcurrent high‐resolution manometry (HRM) and videofluoroscopy data were collected from 22 younger (aged 21–40) and 22 older (aged 60–80) healthy subjects. Pressure topography was analyzed...
The oropharyngeal swallow involves a rapid, highly coordinated set of neuromuscular actions beginning with lip closure and terminating with opening of the upper esophageal sphincter. Evaluation of the oropharyngeal swallow usually involves the use of a modified barium swallow radiographic study with the goals of (i) defining the patient's swallow anatomy and physiology causing the dysphagia; and (ii)...
