MRI Assessment of Swallow Muscle Activation with the Swallow Exercise Aid and with Conventional Exercises in Healthy Volunteers: An Explorative Biomechanical Study

Karsten, Rebecca T.; ter Beek, Leon C.; Jasperse, Bas; van Alphen, Maarten J. A.; Peeters, Johannes M.; van der Molen, Lisette; Hilgers, Frans J. M.; Stuiver, Martijn M. (Urban Vitality); Smeele, Ludi E.

Swallowing muscle strength exercises are effective in restoring swallowing function. In order to perform the exercises with progressive load, the swallow exercise aid (SEA) was developed. Precise knowledge on which muscles are activated with swallowing exercises, especially with the SEA, is lacking. …
