| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The optimal Mann Assessment of Swallowing Ability (MASA) cut-off values for predicting aspiration and pharyngeal retention were 122 points and 151 points, respectively. And it was suggested that "Cooperation," "Tongue strength," "Tongue coordination," "Oral preparation," "Oral transit," "Cough reflex," "Pharyngeal phase" and "Pharyngeal response" are useful to determine conditions in the presence/absence of aspiration and pharyngeal retention.
