Dysphagia and its effects on swallowing sounds and vibrations in adults

To utilize cervical auscultation as a means of screening for risk of dysphagia, we must first determine how the signal differs between healthy subjects and subjects with swallowing disorders. In this experiment we gathered swallowing sound and vibration data from 53 (13 with stroke, 40 without) pati...

Description
Summary:To utilize cervical auscultation as a means of screening for risk of dysphagia, we must first determine how the signal differs between healthy subjects and subjects with swallowing disorders. In this experiment we gathered swallowing sound and vibration data from 53 (13 with stroke, 40 without) patients referred for imaging evaluation of swallowing function with videofluoroscopy. The analysis was limited to non-aspirating swallows of liquid with either thin (
