This study aimed to determine the effect of visual biofeedback using the Iowa Oral Performance Instrument (IOPI) on the muscle activity of the floor-of-the-mouth (FOM) and oral swallowing pressure during ES exercise. Forty-five healthy older adults (mean age 76.1 ± 4.48y) participated in this randomized crossover study with two conditions. In the visual biofeedback condition using the IOPI, the participants were presented with a value corresponding to 80% of the maximum isometric pressure of the posterior oral tongue measured at baseline and asked to exceed the target value while performing ES. In the no-feedback condition, the IOPI screen was blocked to ensure that information regarding the swallowing pressure during ES was not provided. In the biofeedback condition, participants showed a significantly higher oral swallowing pressure from Sets 3-8 compared with the no-feedback condition (p < 0.05). In the no feedback condition, FOM muscle activity was significantly lower in Set 4 than in the Set 1 (p < 0.05). To improve the strength of the tongue and FOM muscles through ES exercise, providing biofeedback using the IOPI may be beneficial for maintaining a consistently high level of exercise intensity.

Thirty-two SLPs from 5 sites participated in a blinded longitudinal DIGEST rating study. Raters were provided a standardized training set of MBS (n = 19).

Baseline reliability (R1) of overall DIGEST was on average k = 0.70, reflecting agreement in the substantial range. Seventy-five percent of raters (24/32) demonstrated reliability ≥ 0.61 in the substantial to almost perfect range prior to training. Inter-rater reliability significantly improved from R1 to R3 after review of the DIGEST manual, with the largest change in DIGEST-Efficiency (mean change: DIGEST k = .04, p = .009, DIGEST-Safety k = .07, p = 0.03, and DIGEST-Efficiency k = .14, p = 0.009). Although DIGEST reliability at baseline was adequate in the majority of raters, self-study of the DIGEST training manual significantly improved inter-rater reliability and rater confidence using the DIGEST method, particularly when assigning DIGEST-Efficiency grade.
