Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The purpose of this study is to learn more about how exercise and protein supply affect swallow muscles. Twenty healthy older adults will be recruited from local community centers, physician offices, and retirement communities via flyers. Participants will complete 16 sessions of standard of care swallowing exercises 2 times per week for 8 weeks. All sessions will be conducted via Zoom. During each session, a series of swallow exercises will be performed following a demonstration from a trained speech-language pathologist. Participants will be referred to NYU Langone Health or White Plains Hospital, for a videofluoroscopic swallowing study, acoustic pharyngometry and measures of hand grip strength before and after the treatment protocol. Patients will be able to select their preferred site for swallow study completion. Results will inform the relationship between swallow exercises and pharyngeal muscles. All devices and exercises are established as safe and effective and are FDA approved.
