Dysphagia Study Using Novel Microphone Device
Recruiting now · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Dysphagia, Stroke
In brief
This study aims to collect swallowing acoustics with a novel non-invasive wearable surface microphone device during routine work-up, videofluoroscopic swallow study (VFSS), of patients with dysphagia (swallowing trouble). The collected microphone data will be analyzed to find the pattern of abnormal swallowing by machine learning algorithm.
