Intensive Faciltiation of Swallowing in Patients With Severe Dysphagia After Acquired Brain Injury

Deglutition Disorders Clinical Trial

Official title:
The Effect of Intensive Facial Oral Tract Therapy (F.O.T.T.®) on Swallowing Function in Patients After Acquired Brain Injury (ABI)

Clinical Trial Summary

This study is a randomized controlled trial (RCT). Patients after severe acquired brain injury (ABI) were randomised in addition to the individual daily rehabilitation program to intensive Facial Oral Tract Therapy (F.O.T.T.®) (intervention group) or unspecific treatment: washing face, brushing teeth, without facilitating swallowing (control group).

The duration of the intervention period was 15 working days (3 weeks). The intervention in both groups was twice a day.

Clinical Trial Description

The F.O.T.T.® approach uses structured tactile input and facilitation techniques in meaningful everyday life context, aiming for improving function in the face and oral tract that is as normal as possible. The goal is maximum participation in daily life. The treatment encourages learning of helpful functional movements or patterns of movement for safe swallowing, protection of airway, oral hygiene, eating, drinking, breathing, voice and articulation. ;
