High-Resolution Manometry Contributions to the Physiology of Phonation

High-resolution manometry (HRM) is a motility diagnostic system that measures intraluminal pressure of the gastrointestinal tract using a series of closely spaced pressure sensors. The topographic plot generated by HRM software makes it possible to visualize phonation pressures at the pharynx, UES,...

description High-resolution manometry (HRM) is a motility diagnostic system that measures intraluminal pressure of the gastrointestinal tract using a series of closely spaced pressure sensors. The topographic plot generated by HRM software makes it possible to visualize phonation pressures at the pharynx, UES, and body of the esophagus in real time, indicating pressure intensity by color, which permits easy data interpretation. It has been largely used for swallowing study and dysphagia diagnosis. Due to the proximity of the pharyngoesophageal and laryngeal structures, this technology instigated voice researchers. Despite the few studies published so far, high-resolution manometry has yet proven to be an extremely useful tool in obtaining entire pharyngoesophageal segment pressure measurements during phonation. It also allows natural voice production not interfering with the mouth area. HRM data already brought light to subglottic pressure, vertical laryngeal excursion, cricopharyngeal muscle activation, air flow, muscle tension associated with vocalization and pressure variations associated with different phonatory stimuli.
