OBJECTIVE: The chin-down maneuver is commonly used in dysphagia management to facilitate greater airway protection. However, the literature suggests that variation in maneuver execution may threaten the effectiveness of the intervention. Our goal was to study variation in chin-down maneuver execution given a uniform instruction.
METHODS: Sagittal view digital video recordings were acquired from 408 healthy adults who performed sequences of reiterated water swallows in head-neutral and chin-down positions. Head angle measurements were extracted from the recordings, using markers on goggles worn by 176 participants.
RESULTS: We observed considerable variation in head angle in the head-neutral swallowing task, with a trend to greater flexion in participants over the age of 65. Male participants showed greater variation in head angle than females. Head flexion during the chin-down swallowing tasks averaged 19°, in the range reported to yield clinical benefit in radiographic studies.
CONCLUSION: We conclude that a clear, uniform instruction is adequate to facilitate execution of the chin-down maneuver to a degree that is likely to be of clinical benefit. The variation in head angle observed in this study warrants further research, particularly regarding the relationship between anatomical cervical spine curvature and head angle influence on swallowing.
