Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of the trial is to identify any systematic effect of cohesiveness on the efficacy of swallowing in patients having dysphagia problems.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This trial will be a double blind, randomized, crossover, controlled, and interventional trial. Each subject will test 6 study samples in a randomized order at 5 mL of volume first then at 10 mL (12 samples maximum). The trial will last a maximum of one hour (a single study visit).

The total sample size is 47 enrolled subjects, 33 subjects completed. Patients will be females and males aged between 18 and 85 years with mild proven dysphagia.
