Validation of oesophageal impedance for assessment of volume clearance

Time from swallow to: (n=35) Videofluoroscopy (seconds) Impedance (seconds)
Oesophageal filling 2.14 (0.18) 2.01 (0.11)
Oesophageal emptying 5.93 (0.50) 5.56 (0.32)
Interval filling—emptying  (volume clearance time) 3.79 (0.39) 3.55 (0.33)
