Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The outcome measures are the variables considered by ultrasound imaging, 1. Lateral pharyngeal wall motion of duration (secs) and displacement (cm) of the initial and end LPW motion during normal and THS. 2. Hyoid-larynx approximation of thyroid cartilage to hyoid bone distance during normal and THS in cm. 3. Tongue thickness of vertical distance measured in a static position from the mylohyoid muscle surface to the tongue dorsum in cm.Timepoint: Cross-sectional study
