Receiver operating characteristic curve’s for functional lingual pressure thresholds (FLPT) to detect impairments in swallowing efficiency (A) and swallowing safety (B). A FLPT of ≤46kPa optimized sensitivity (86%) and specificity (56%) for detection of inefficient swallowing and correctly classified efficiency status in 77% of cases (AUC=0.77, p=0.02). A LPT of ≤43kPa optimized sensitivity (94%) and specificity (61%) for identification of unsafe swallowing and correctly classified swallowing safety status in 82% of cases (AUC 0.82, p=0.003).
