Fork and Spoon Pressure Test in Dysphagia Assessment
To check how firm or hard a food is, a Fork/Spoon Pressure Test is best used to assess foods in Levels 4 � EC7 and transitional foods by assessing how the food changes when pressure is applied to the food with the tines/prongs of a fork or the back of a spoon. The slots/gaps between the tines/prongs of a standard metal fork typically measure 4 mm, which provides a useful measuring tool for particle size of foods at Level 5 � Minced & Moist.
