Dysphagia Study Using Novel Microphone Device

Novel Acoustic Biopatch for the Investigation of Dysphagia

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 26 Nov 2025

Brief summary (registry, in English)

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.
