Avaliação da reprodutibilidade de um instrumento para medição da força axial da língua

Abstract: RESUMO Objetivo Avaliar a reprodutibilidade do Forling, instrumento portátil para medição da força axial da língua. Método Foi realizada a medição da força axial da língua de 49 participantes, 30 mulheres e 19 homens, com idades entre 18 e 25 anos por meio do Forling portátil. As medições foram realizadas em três dias com intervalos de 7±2 dias. Em cada dia, foram realizadas três coletas com duração de 7 segundos e intervalos de 1 minuto. Na análise, empregou-se coeficiente de variação, teste pareado de Wi… Show more

“…Tasks that demand maximum force or pressure are used in research (1,2,(7)(8)(9)(10)(13)(14)(15)(16) ; because this is the best way to standardize tests across different subjects and, thus, to reduce variability so that reliable information concerning the functioning of orofacial structures can be obtained. In addition, one way to summarize the maximum force is through the average of 3 measurements (16) , as used in this study. It should be noted, however, that the forces exerted during normal functions such as mastication, deglutition (19) and speech (27) are lower.…”

“…Different orofacial forces have been investigated in a number of studies, including bite force (2,(7)(8)(9)(10)(11) , tongue force (1,(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16) , cheek force (7,13,14) , and lip force (1,13,17) .…”

“…In general, tongue strength is assessed qualitatively through the resistance protrusion task, where patients are asked to protrude their tongue and push it against the examiner's gloved finger and/or against a spatula vertically positioned a few centimeters away from the mouth (7) . Tongue strength, or force, can also be assessed by quantitative methods (8) , using instruments containing sensors that provide the value of the force exerted by the tongue against a surface. There are also instruments that provide the value of the pressure exerted by the tongue (3) , with pressure defined as the force exerted in a given direction per unit area (9) .…”
