Abstract

Normal pharyngeal swallow is precisely scheduled and symmetric. It is finely tuned and coordinated in a precise and exact manner to establish a safe swallow (Miller 1986; Dodds 1989). The swallowing process is regulated by a command centre in the brainstem, a central program generator which receives input from the cerebral cortex and peripheral muscle and directs the sequence of swallowing. This process is both voluntary and involuntary and incorporates motor activity from the oral cavity, pharynx and esophagus. It involves both motor and sensory activity. There is an evolving amount of knowledge concerning normal and abnormal swallowing (Jones and Donner 1991; Ekberg and Wahlgren 1985; Hannig and Hannig 1987; Brühlmann 1985; Pokieser et al. 1995; Dodds 1989).
