title: [Manometric analysis of the oral and pharyngeal phases of the act of swallowing].
abstract: Manometric analysis of swallowing was conducted on 35 subjects, aged 44 to 60. The course of physiological changes in pressure during oral and pharyngeal phase of swallowing was analysed. To objectify the evaluation of analysed phenomena, parameters that include both pressure values inside pharynx and oesophagus and time dependences connected with changes in their value were used as proposed by the authors of this paper and as applied by other authors involved with these issues.
