Speech Therapy flow rate posture bolus size dysphagia pediatric open-cup drinking training cups This study examined the impact of external, internal, and additional drinking parameters on flow rate during open-cup drinking. Twenty-six participants between the ages of 8 and 10 years were recruited for participation in the study. Participants completed two open-cup drinking trials with either a low initial volume or a high initial volume. Trials were recorded using a Kinect v1 sensor, to generate a series of timestamped images. Images were then analyzed to obtain data on the external, internal, and additional factors. Results yielded that external parameters had no discernible systematic impact on flow. However, the additional factors of initial cup volume and cup angle at peak were found to each positively correlate with flow rates during open-cup drinking. In addition, a mathematical model for calculating flow rate, a standard drinking pose, and an average bolus size per swallow were developed for the population from this study. The findings from this study will be applied to the continued development of a programmable training cup to aid children in the transition from bottle to open-cup drinking. 2016-05-03 English text Miami University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=miami1461952523 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=miami1461952523 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
