This study will evaluate with videofluoroscopy (radiologic method to study the deglutitive
physiology) the effect on the deglutition of two therapeutic treatments with the duration of
2 weeks, based on the increase of the sensorial stimuli in older patients with oropharyngeal
dysphagia:
1. Stimulation of Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) oropharynx chanels
using a natural agonist administrated in the alimentary bolus.
2. Stimulation of the sensorial neurons of the pharynx and larynx using transcutaneous
electrical stimuli.
Moreover, with an electroencephalographic study we will assess the effect of both treatments
in the cortical neuroplasticity.
