Do Disinfectant Solutions during Gargling Reach the Pharynx?
Introduction: In times of COVID-19, gargling disinfectant is commonly used. Disinfectant solutions seem to decrease the infection's symptoms. For disinfection, several techniques are reported. So far, there are no data about the regions in the upper airways achieved by gargled fluid.
Methods: Ten healthy volunteers without any dysphagia were investigated with a high-sensitivity flexible endoscopic evaluation of swallowing (hsFEES®) during and after gargling colored water. One volunteer repeated the gargling process in fast and real-time MRI.
Results: In all cases, no color accumulation was detected on the posterior pharyngeal wall, epi- or hypopharynx during gargling. The MRI scans confirmed the results.
Conclusions: hsFEES® and fast MRI provide an insight into the gargling pattern. Data show that during gargling, the fluid covers the soft tissue in the oral cavity and the anterior part of the soft palate, but not the posterior pharyngeal wall nor the epi- and hypopharynx.
期刊介绍:
Published since 1947, ''Folia Phoniatrica et Logopaedica'' provides a forum for international research on the anatomy, physiology, and pathology of structures of the speech, language, and hearing mechanisms. Original papers published in this journal report new findings on basic function, assessment, management, and test development in communication sciences and disorders, as well as experiments designed to test specific theories of speech, language, and hearing function. Review papers of high quality are also welcomed.
