Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study was to establish the method to evaluate the function of bolus preparation for swallowing using videoendoscopy. The subjects were instructed to have the same kind of foods (rice and cookie) with differed color at a mouthful. We evaluated the function of bolus preparation in pharynx, using videoendoscopy. Cookie ; The bolus was high degrees of mixedness, grindability and cohesiveness despite of mastication manner. Rice ; Degrees of grindability and cohesiveness of the bolus prepared with proper mastication were higher than with usual manner. These results indicated that it is possible to evaluate the function of bolus preparation for swallowing using videoendoscopy.
