Confirmation of effectiveness of swallowing support by laryngeal elevation support system.
Efficacy
Confirm that system-assisted laryngeal elevation is performed to the same degree as manual laryngeal elevation (Mendelsohn maneuver).
Confirm that laryngeal elevation support by the system is not affected by individual differences.
Post questionnaire: Conpare the mendelsohn maneuver and the system-assisted laryngeal elevation.

No statistically significant differences were observed in hyoid bone displacement among the system-assisted condition, manual assistance, and saliva swallowing in either males or females. The ques- tionnaire results demonstrated reduced pain and lower perceived burden during use of the system.

Following an explanation of the study, 40 healthy adults (20 men, 20 women) aged 18 to 65 years, who had no swallowing disorders and provided consent to participate, were included.
During the informed consent process, healthcare professionals and the system will explain the Mendelson maneuver to the subject until they fully understand and accept it. If consent cannot be obtained, the individual will not participate in this experiment.
In the experiment, both a healthcare professional and the system will perform the procedure on each subject three times. Two experimental groups will be established based on the sequence of the procedures: "manual followed by device-assisted" and "device-assisted followed by manual." The duration of laryngeal elevation is set at 5 seconds.During the experiment, X-rays are directed at the subject's larynx to capture images. Before providing assistance with laryngeal elevation, the subject's laryngeal elevation during swallowing without such assistance is also assessed. The system is set up by a healthcare professional.The subject presses a switch to initiate laryngeal elevation. X-ray irradiation is used to record the movement of the larynx. Because X-ray imaging is required, the experiment is conducted in an X-ray fluoroscopy room.
After the experiment, participants will be asked to complete a questionnaire regarding both procedures.
There were no adverse events.
Primary endpoint:
Footage recorded during a videofluoroscopic swallowing study:Verify whether system-assisted laryngeal elevation achieves a degree of laryngeal elevation comparable to that achieved through manual laryngeal elevation. Record and compare the distance of laryngeal displacement at rest versus during laryngeal elevation.
Secondary endpoints:
Footage recorded during a videofluoroscopic swallowing study:Verify whether the system-assisted laryngeal elevation is affected by individual differences.
Post-event survey:Have the subjects compare the Mendelson maneuver, as performed by a healthcare professional, with the holding action executed by the system.
Safety evaluation items:
Post-event survey:Assess the level of pain or discomfort.
