Expiratory muscle strength training (EMST) is a simple, inexpensive device-driven exercise therapy. Therapeutic potential of EMST was examined among head and neck cancer survivors with chronic radiation-associated aspiration. Retrospective case series. Maximum expiratory pressures (MEPs) were examined among n=64 radiation-associated aspirators (per Penetration-Aspiration Scale, PAS, score ≥6 on modified barium swallow, MBS). Pre-post EMST outcomes were examined in a nested subgroup of patients (n=26) who enrolled in 8 weeks of EMST (25 repetitions, 5 days/week, 75% load). Non-parametric analyses examined effects of EMST on the primary endpoint maximum expiratory pressures (MEPs). Secondary measures included swallowing safety (Dynamic Imaging Grade of Swall0wing Toxicity, DIGEST), perceived dysphagia (M.D. Anderson Dysphagia Inventory, MDADI), and diet (Performance Status Scale for Head and Neck Cancer Patients, PSSHN). Compared to sex matched published normative data, MEPs were reduced in 91% (58/64) of HNC aspirators (mean±SD: 89±37). Twenty-six patients enrolled in EMST; three withdrew. MEPs improved on average 57% (87±29 to 137±44 cm H2O, p<0.001) among 23 who completed EMST. Swallowing safety (per DIGEST) improved significantly (p=0.03). Composite MDADI scores improved post-EMST (pre: 59.9±17.1, post: 62.7±13.9, p=0.13). PSSHN diet scores did not significantly change. MEPs were reduced in chronic radiation-associated aspirators relative to normative data, suggesting that expiratory strengthening could be a novel therapeutic target to improve airway protection in this population. Similar to findings in neurogenic populations, these data also suggest improved expiratory pressure generating capabilities after EMST and translation to functional improvements in swallowing safety in chronic radiation-associated aspirators.
