Facial Nerve Palsy Clinical Trial
Official title:
The Role of Collagen in the Rehabilitation of Peripheral Paralysis of the Facial Nerve
To test the effectiveness of a collagen-based treatment for patients complaining of long standing facial nerve axonotmesis, who are following a proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation protocol (Kabat method), compared to a group only undergoing the Kabat method.
Objective: To test the effectiveness of a collagen-based treatment for patients complaining
of long standing facial nerve axonotmesis, who are following a proprioceptive neuromuscular
facilitation protocol (Kabat method), compared to a group only undergoing the Kabat method.
Methods: Patients undergoing both procedures will be compared, after randomization, to
matched patients undergoing only Kabat procedure after 8 weeks of treatment. The outcomes
will be electromyographic findings, validated questionnaires (Facial Disability Index, FDI)
and clinical grading (House-Brackmann, HB). A correlation analysis will be performed between
pre-/post-treatment differences (Δ) in outcome and clinical-demographic measures.
