Temporal measurements of pharyngeal swallowing in normal populations.

چکیده
The purpose of this investigation was to examine the temporal differences among three measures of pharyngeal stage transition in 40 normal subjects. The measures were (1) Pharyngeal Delay Time (PDT), (2) Stage Transition Duration (STD), and (3) Delayed Pharyngeal Swallow (DPS). Results showed a significant difference between younger and older subjects for PDT and STD but not for DPS. No gender differences were observed. These data on normal subjects will be used for comparisons with stroke patients in future research.

The Effects of Bolus Consistency in Pharyngeal Transit Duration during Normal Swallowing
OBJECTIVE To examine the effects of age, gender and bolus consistency in normal populations using the temporal measurement of Pharyngeal Transit Duration (PTD), which reflects the duration of bolus flow from the ramus of the mandible to the upper esophageal sphincter. METHOD 40 normal and healthy subjects had Videofluoroscopic Swallowing Examinations (VFSEs) of 5 ml thin and nectar thick liqu...
متن کاملThe capacity for volitional control of pharyngeal swallowing in healthy adults.
INTRODUCTION Previous research has documented that pressure and duration of brainstem-generated pharyngeal swallowing can be cortically modulated. But there is a commonly held belief that the sequence of pharyngeal pressure remains constant. However, Huckabee et al. [19] reported a patient cohort who demonstrated reduced latency of peak pressure in the proximal and distal pharynx, disproportion...

The aim of this study was to assess the physiology of normal swallowing using recent advances in real-time magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Therefore ten young healthy subjects underwent real-time MRI and flexible endoscopic evaluations of swallowing (FEES) with thickened pineapple juice as oral contrast bolus. MRI movies were recorded in sagittal, coronal, and axial orientations during succes...

OBJECTIVE To examine the characteristics and changes in the pharyngeal phase of swallowing according to fluid viscosity in normal healthy persons, to help determine fluid intake methods in more detail than the use of standardized fluid. METHODS This was a prospective observational study involving 10 normal healthy adults. While the participants sequentially took in fluids with 10 different vi...
