Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to investigate improvement of swallowing function manometrically following conservative therapy. The swallowing pressure were recorded simultaneously with four microsensores, spaced at 2.5cm intervals, at oropharynx, middle and low part of hypopharynx, and pharyngoesophageal levels. This method is useful for evaluating the swallowing function through pressure change in respect to time. The nearly normal patterns of swallowing pressure were observed in the cases that recovered the swallowing function.
