Pressure Flow Analysis in the Assessment of Preswallow Pharyngeal Bolus Presence in Dysphagia
Objectives. Preswallow pharyngeal bolus presence is evident in patients with oropharyngeal dysphagia. Pressure flow analysis (PFA) using high resolution manometry with impedance (HRMI) with AIMplot software is a method for objective interpretation of pharyngeal and upper esophageal sphincter (UES) p...
