Electrical Stimulation to Promote Recovery in Bells Palsy

Status Terminated

Clinical Trial Summary

A feasibility pilot study to exam the necessary methodology for conducting a larger clinical trial for Bell's Palsy patients with a poor prognosis and the use of electrical stimulation.

Clinical Trial Description

Here we describe a protocol for a prospective, randomized, double-blinded study to evaluate the effects of monophasic pulsed current ES on patients with Bell's palsy and factors predicting poor recovery, with a 6 month follow up. Motor level stimulation with a pulse duration of 100 μsec and a frequency of 35 pulses per second were chosen from focus group with physical therapist to treat facial paralysis and are consistent with clinical trials showing motor benefit after capel tunnel surgery. ;
