The aim of this study is to examine the effects of PNF (proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation) and CTAR (Chin Tuck Against Resistance) exercises on swallowing rehabilitation in stroke patients. In addition another aim is to examine the effects of these exercises on the swallowing function, quality of life, functional independence and functional oral intake of individuals, and to investigate the superiority of the exercises to each other in line with these features.

---|---|---|---|---|
Primary | Penetration Aspiration Scale (PAS) | The penetration aspiration scale (PAS) is routinely used to assess penetration and aspiration severity during videofluoroscopic or FEES assessment. It has a scoring system from 0 to 8, depending on whether it is aspirated or penetrated after administration of liquid-consistent and solid foods with oral contrast agent or dye. High scores indicate the presence of aspiration and penetration. | Change from baseline at 8 weeks | |
Primary | Ultrasound Evaluation | Neck submental muscle cross-sectional thickness measurement (millimeter-mm), sternocleidomastoideus muscle thickness measurement (mm), hyoid bone elevation measurement (millimeter-mm) and tongue base cross-sectional area (square-centimeter-cm2) will be measured by USG before and after therapy. USG measurements will be made by an experienced radiologist. Three measurements will be taken from each muscle group and the results will be averaged to minimize variations in muscle thickness. | Change from baseline at 8 weeks | |
Secondary | Cognitive Status | Mini Mental Test will be used to evaluate the cognitive status of individuals. It is a short, useful, standardized test that provides the opportunity to evaluate cognitive performance in a short time. A high score indicates a good cognitive status. The maximum possible score is 30. A score of 17 and below is considered severe dementia, a score of 18-23 is considered mild dementia, and a score of 24-30 is considered normal. | a day before the start of treatment | |
Secondary | The Barthel Index | The Barthel index evaluates physical independence in activities of daily living in 10 items (transfer, ambulation/wheelchair use, stair climbing, feeding, dressing, self-regulation, bathing, toilet use, urinary continence, stool continence). Each item is scored separately as 0, 5, 10 or 15 points. A total score of 0-20 means fully dependent, 21-61 highly dependent, 62-90 moderately dependent, 91-99 mildly dependent and 100 fully independent. | Change from baseline at 8 weeks | |
Secondary | Eating Assessment Tool (EAT-10) | It is an easy-to-apply scale consisting of ten items, which allows the rapid assessment of dysphagia symptoms in patients with swallowing disorders. It contains ten questions about oropharyngeal dysphagia, each question is scored between 0 and 3. The total score is obtained by summing the scores. High scores indicate severe dysphagia. | Change from baseline at 8 weeks | |
Secondary | Functional Oral Intake Scale (FOIS) | Oral nutritional status of individuals will be evaluated by using The FOIS is a seven-item scale. It is used to show the level of an individual's feeding tube and oral intake. High scores indicate normal oral intake. The maximum score that can be obtained from the scale is 7. | Change from baseline at 8 weeks | |
Secondary | Swallowing Quality Of Life Questionnaire (SWAL-QOL) | Quality of life due to swallowing problem will be evaluated with the Swallowing Quality of Life Questionnaire (SWAL-QOL). SWAL-QOL includes 10 concepts: general load, food choice, eating time, desire to eat, fear of eating, sleep, fatigue, communication, mental health, and social function. A high score indicates good quality of life. Since its creation, the SWAL-QOL questionnaire has been used as the gold standard in the assessment of quality of life in studies on swallowing disorders. | Change from baseline at 8 weeks |
