我们评估了阻抗咽造影术（IPG），这是一种基于吞咽过程中颈部电阻抗变化评估吞咽功能的新方法。通过4电极法记录的颈部电阻抗随电流路径的等效横截面积而变化，这是由于吞咽过程中相关器官的反射活动。因此，IPG波形准确地记录了吞咽过程。我们推荐使用IPG评估吞咽功能，因为我们预计IPG与传统诊断技术相比具有以下优势：它是一种定量方法，可以客观评估吞咽功能;它是一种简单的程序，方便患者，可用于筛查;它价格低廉且无创，因此可以在康复等情况下重复进行;并且它使用适合于社区使用的高度便携式设备。
We evaluated impedance pharyngography (IPG), a new method to assess swallowing function based on changes in the electrical impedance of the neck during swallowing. The electrical impedance of the neck, recorded by the 4-electrode method, changed with the equivalent cross-sectional area of the route of the electric current due to reflex activities of related organs during swallowing. IPG waveforms accurately recorded the swallowing process, therefore. We recommend IPG for assessing swallowing function because we expect IPG to provide the following advantages over conventional diagnostic techniques: it is a quantitative method that allows for the objective assessment of swallowing function; it is a simple procedure that is convenient for the patient and could be used for screening; it is inexpensive and non-invasive, so could be performed repeatedly in situations such as rehabilitation; and it uses highly portable equipment suitable for community use.
