Clinical Trial Summary

Tracheostomy tubes are known to have a negative impact on swallowing. Dysphagia treatment includes using laryngoneuromuscular electrical muscular stimulation (LNMES). Evidence exist on the efficacy of LNMES in the treatment of dysphagia in adults, and scarce in pediatrics. There is no literature available for the efficacy of LNMES in the treatment of dysphagia on patients with tracheostomy tubes. The purpose of this study to determine the outcomes on dysphagia on children with tracheostomy tubes when treated using LNMES. Furthermore, the investigators aim to determine the relationship between parental stress and a child's modified diet.
