Abstract
Purpose High-resolution manometry (HRM) is a developing evaluation and treatment modality within the scope of speech-language pathology clinical practice. HRM offers pressure measurement over time that can capture details of pharyngeal and upper esophageal sphincter function unattainable with current dysphagia imaging modalities. As the technology is being adapted from esophageal application to use in the pharynx, understanding the strengths and limitations of HRM is paramount to building valid models for clinical use. Conclusion This review of HRM translation from research to clinical practice aims to introduce the speech-language pathologist to this novel evaluation and treatment apparatus.
