ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To evaluate the effects of the application of tongue pressure sensor sheet on the signal waveform of laryngeal movement produced by the bend sensor during deglutition.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Twelve adult male subjects were recruited to perform a single swallow of 5 ml water when sitting on the dental chair with upright position. The data recorded by bend sensor was obtained with attaching tongue pressure sensor sheet simultaneously or not. Then the measured parameters by bend sensor with or without concurrent application of tongue pressure sensor sheet were compared.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>There were no significant differences between the same time point on the signal waveform produced by bend sensor whether concurrently attaching tongue pressure sensor sheet or not (P > 0.05). Additionally, we found no statistical significances between matched phases on the signal waveform recorded by bend sensor with or without application of tongue pressure sensor sheet (P > 0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The findings in this study suggest us that the usage of tongue pressure sensor sheet exerted no influences on the waveform of the laryngeal movement produced by bend sensor during deglutition, facilitating us to further apply tongue pressure sensor sheet and bend sensor simultaneously to record tongue pressure production and hyoid activity during deglutition.</p>
