New tongue tool aims to improve muscle testing

NCT ID NCT07625761

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study compares a new tool called the TOngue Manometer (TOM) with the current standard device (IOPI) for measuring tongue muscle function. Researchers will test 58 healthy adults aged 18 to 65 to see if the TOM gives more accurate results. The goal is to improve how tongue strength and endurance are measured, which could help in future treatments for swallowing or speech problems.
