Study Summary
The goal of this project is to examine the area of the brain that controls muscle movement for a group of muscles important for swallowing, and to see how that area changes over 2 weeks of time.
Primary Outcome
Cortical sites are stimulated sequentially from the SOLMT in the anterior direction. At each site, 5 pulses of 110% of the MEP threshold obtained at the SOLMT are delivered and recorded. If a site produces no MEP in 3/5 pulses it is considered non-submental. This process is continued until the entire submental representation is surrounded by non-submental responsive sites. The number of sites is used to calculate the area of submental representation. The mean sEMG amplitudes of the submental mus
