Oropharyngeal dysphagia (OD) is a pathology with a high prevalence in different patient phenotypes. High-resolution pharyngoesophageal manometry (HRPM) with impedance (HRPM-I) has become in recent years a fundamental technique for better understanding the pathophysiology of pharynx and upper oesopha...
