The Aspirometer: A Noninvasive Tool for Detecting Aspiration

University of Pittsburgh·interventional·Posted Oct 15, 2024·Updated Feb 19, 2025

In Brief

A clinical study evaluating Aspirometer and Videofluoroscopic X-ray for Deglutition Disorders. Completed, enrolled 50 participants across 1 site.

Detailed Summary

This investigation evaluates the effectiveness of a device called the Aspirometer, which uses high resolution cervical auscultation (HRCA), in detecting when food or liquids enter the airway (aspiration) of the person swallowing, whether the person swallowing shows signs of aspiration (coughing) or not.

Interventions

Aspirometerdevice

a triaxial accelerometer and a contact microphone affixed with tape to patient neck, a data accrual infrastructure, algorithms that decode swallow physiology noninvasively

Videofluoroscopic X-raydevice

MBS is a fluoroscopic diagnostic test to evaluate swallowing physiology. Its images are judged by humans trained to do so.
