Background/Aims: Impedance analysis using high-resolution impedance manometry (HRIM) enables the recognition of pharyngeal residue in patients with oropharyngeal dysphagia. The aims of this study were to evaluate appropriate criteria for impedance analysis in a large patient cohort, as well as the diagnostic accuracy and agreement of analysis performed by HRIM trainees.
Methods: We reviewed 33 controls (13 males; median age, 61.2 years) and 104 oropharyngeal dysphagia patients (61 males; median age, 70.4 years) who underwent a flexible endoscopic evaluation of swallowing study (FEES) and HRIM. Two experts compared the pharyngeal residue on FEES and impedance color pattern at 1,000, 1,500 and 2,000 ¥Ø of the impedance bar. Three trainees were given a 60 minutes tutorial to determine the diagnostic accuracy and agreement of this analysis.
Results: The diagnostic sensitivity of experts for predicting liquid residue was 73.1% for 1,000 ¥Ø, 96.2% for 1,500 ¥Ø and 100% for 2,000 ¥Ø. Significantly higher sensitivity was observed at 1,500 ¥Ø compared to 1,000 ¥Ø (P < 0.001). The diagnostic specificity of experts for liquid residue was 98.3% for 1,000 ¥Ø, 96.6% for 1,500 ¥Ø and 83.1% for 2,000 ¥Ø. There was a higher specificity at 1,500 ¥Ø compared to 2,000 ¥Ø (P = 0.008). The ¥ê value among the 3 trainees was 0.89 and the diagnostic accuracy of the trainees for liquid residue was comparable to that of the experts.
Conclusions: The impedance analysis at 1,500 ¥Ø provides more accurate information for the detection of liquid residue, irrespective of the level of expertise.
