Fabrication of Artificial Food Bolus for Evaluation of Swallowing

Abstract: Simple and easy methods to evaluate swallowing are required because of the recently increased need of rehabilitation for dysphagia. "Artificial food bolus", but not "artificial food", would be a valuable tool for swallowing evaluation without considering the mastication effect which is altered according to the individual's oral condition. Thus, this study was carried out to fabricate artificial bolus resembling natural food bolus. The mechanical property and the volume change of food bolus in normal people wer… Show more

“…Swallow studies provide a validated means of clinically assessing characteristics of swallowing, including oral sensation, chewing, salivation, and oromuscular coordination of food bolus transit. These tests use a radiopaque artificial food bolus for a contrast-enhanced fluoroscopic evaluation of swallowing [ 120 ]. They have revealed some evidence of abnormal swallowing sensations in AN [ 121 ] and could be used more broadly to interrogate esophageal interoception in eating disorders.…”
