Objectives
To (1) compare 2 distinct isometric lingual press tasks, fine sensorimotor versus gross sensorimotor, at multiple sensor locations in relation to age and sex; and (2) provide a normative data set using a lingual-strengthening device. Design Cohort study. Participants Healthy men and women (N=71; age range, 2182y) recruited from the community. Interventions Participants were stratified by age and sex and divided into 3 age groups. Participants completed, in random order, 2 isometric tasks: (1) fine sensorimotor: tongue press maximally and discreetly against each of 5 sensors; and (2) gross sensorimotor: tongue press maximally against all 5 sensors simultaneously. Main Outcome Measures Primary outcome was maximum isometric pressure in hectopascals (hPa). Secondary outcomes were time to reach peak pressure (s) and pressure gradient (hPa/s). Results Maximum pressures were significantly lower in those of older age for both fine and gross sensorimotor lingual tasks (P<.01 with the front and back sensors showing greatest decline respectively pressure differences between tasks resulted in fine sensorimotor task generating higher pressures at sensor for all age groups. however gross generated faster maximum locations both subjects of older as a whole less steep gradients> Conclusions Age-related decline in tongue strength is greater at the anterior and posterior tongue. Results indicate a simpler gross sensorimotor task may be more beneficial for targeting timing as a biomechanical parameter during therapy, and the fine sensorimotor task may be more beneficial for targeting strength. |
