Filter by:This was a multicenter randomized controlled study. 66 post-stroke patients with pharyngeal dysphagia were randomly allocated to the observation group (n=33) or the control group (n=33). Both groups were provided with comprehensive rehabilitation including routine rehabilitation and swallowing function training. Besides, the observation group additionally underwent the stellate ganglion block (SGB). At admission and after 20-day treatment, Kubota water swallowing test, video fluoroscopic swallowing study (VFSS), and Rosenbek penetration-aspiration scale (PAS) were used to assess swallowing function.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about on dysphagia in wallenberg syndrome. The main questions it aims to answer are: - the efficacy of motor imagery based on action observation treatment in the rehabilitation of patients with dysphagia in Wallenberg syndrome. - apply functional near infrared spectroscopy to explore the mechanism of action of this therapy. Participants received conventional dysphagia treatment and motor imagery based on action observation treatment once a day for 14 days. Researchers compared the control group to see the effect and mechanism of motor imagery based on action observation treatment.
This trial was a randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled trial.Thirty patients with post-stroke dysphagia were randomly assigned to the repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation(rTMS) group (n=15) or sham rTMS group (n=15). Both groups received conventional swallowing rehabilitation, and in addition, the rTMS group received 5hz repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation on the healthy side. Swallowing function was assessed at admission and after two weeks of treatment using the the Standardized Swallowing Assessment (SSA), the Penetration-Aspiration Scale (PAS), the Fiberoptic Endoscopic Dysphagia Severity Scale(FEDSS), the Functional Oral Intake Scale (FOIS), and the functional near-infrared spectroscopic(fNIRS).
A prospective study was conducted on 84 CSVD patients with dysphagia and cognitive impairment. They were divided into the comparison group and observation group evenly. All the patients were provided with routine therapy, while the patients in the observation group were given SGB. The swallowing function, cognitive function and activities of daily living of the two groups of patients before and after treatment were evaluated by Penetration-Aspiration Scale, Mini-mental state examination and modified Barthel index.
Background: Cervicogenic dysphagia is a swallowing difficulty caused by cervical problems that negatively impact pulmonary health, and quality of life and may increase the risk of mortality. Study design: Randomized Controlled Study Purpose: The purpose was to explore the effect of a structured exercise training program composed of cervical stretching, strengthening and stabilizing exercises on the swallowing function, craniovertebral angle, and pulmonary function in patient with cervicogenic dysphagia. Methods: 32 patients (age 35-50 years) with cervicogenic dysphagia were randomly allocated into study group (n=17) and control group (n=15). The craniovertebral angle (CVA), the swallowing function (using the swallow-difficulty questionnaire "SDQ") and the pulmonary function (including the forced vital capacity "FVC" and forced expiratory volume in one second "FEV1") were evaluated pre-study and post-study. All participants received three sessions/week for 8-weeks. The study group received the structured exercise program, in addition to the swallow resistance exercise (SRE), while the control group received the swallow resistance exercise only.
This study aims to investigate the correlation between COVID-19 and dysphagia in adults. The population of the study consisted of those who applied to Bezmialem University, Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Dysphagia Outpatient Clinic with the complaint of dysphagia. Patients older than 18 years of age, suffering from dysphagia and not having mental retardation were included in the study. Patients who did not have swallowing difficulties and refused to participate in the study were excluded.
The aim of this observational study is to investigate the effects of the type, area and duration of ulceration on jaw pain, mandibular function limitation, TMD and swallowing in individuals with diabetic foot ulcers.The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does the change in foot structure due to diabetic foot ulcer have an effect on the temporomandibular jointand swalloving? - What are the determinants of tempomandibular dysfunction in individuals with diabetic foot ulcers? Participants (both groups) will be evaluated for quality of life, jaw functionality, mandibular dysfunction, oropharyngeal swallowing disorder, pain and diabetes complications.
To investigate the impact of physical therapy intervention of dysphagia on preventing pneumonia in acute stroke patients
This study aims to determine the effectiveness of game-based biofeedback application via surface electromyography in patients with post-stroke dysphagia. The same treatment interventions will be applied with and without biofeedback, and thus the contribution of adding biofeedback to the treatment will be determined.
The study has 6 research questions regarding the use of dysphagia cups: Primary study questions: 1. Can the use of the dysphagia cups increase water consumption and liquid consumption during the trial period? 2. Can the use of the dysphagia cups reduce the frequency and intensity of choking and coughing while drinking? 3. What are the potential risks to the service users while using the dysphagia cups? Secondary study question: 4. Can the use of the dysphagia cups enhance the autonomy of the service users in drinking? Auxiliary study questions: 5. Can the use of the dysphagia cups reduce the amount of thickener used for water consumption? 6. What are the perceived benefits and acceptability of using the dysphagia cups?
