Dysphagia Study Using Novel Microphone Device
Sponsor: Emory University
Summary
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.
Official title: Novel Acoustic Biopatch for the Investigation of Dysphagia
