Liquid aspiration has been documented as the most common type of aspiration in older subjects, particularly those suffering from debilitation, dementia or depression. The sequelae of the aspiration can be pneumonia which can frequently be a contributing factor to death and also to increase health care costs. This study proposes to define the short and long term effects of two commonly used interventions to eliminate aspiration of thin liquids. These include a "(1) chin down posture, and (2) liquid thickened to honey viscosity or nectar viscosity". The first part of the study will examine the effects of these interventions on the occurrence of aspiration in the short-term as monitored by oropharyngeal videofluorographic study. The study is composed of two parts, the first of which is the initial evaluation by radiographic study as to the possibility of aspiration on the above listed approaches. The second part examines the long term follow up and the effectiveness of the two interventions on the reduction of pneumonia.

液体抽吸已被证明是老年受试者中最常见的抽吸类型，尤其是那些患有衰弱，痴呆或抑郁症的受试者。 抽吸的后遗症可能是肺炎，这通常是导致死亡的因素，也可能增加医疗保健成本。 这项研究建议定义两种常用干预措施的短期和长期影响，以消除稀释液体的抽吸。 这些包括“（1）下巴向下姿势，（2）液体增厚至蜂蜜粘度或花蜜粘度”。 该研究的第一部分将检查这些干预措施对射精视频摄影研究所监测的短期中抽吸事件的影响。 该研究由两个部分组成，其中第一个是射线照相研究的初步评估，即对上述方法的抽吸可能性。 第二部分研究了长期随访以及两种干预措施对减少肺炎的有效性。
