Effects Of Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation Dysphagia

Effects of neuromuscular electrical stimulation on swallowing and neural activation special interest group 13 swallowing and swallowing disorders dysphagia developed a resource summarizing what is known about the use of electrical stimulation with pediatric populations.

Effects of neuromuscular electrical stimulation dysphagia. The review was conducted as part of a series examining the effects of oral motor exercises omes on speech swallowing and neural activation. Purpose to systematically review the literature examining the effects of neuromuscular electrical stimulation nmes on swallowing and neural activation. Swallow treatment with neuromuscular electrical stimulation seems to be more effective than that without neuromuscular electrical stimulation for post stroke dysphagia in the short term considering the limited number of studies available. The effect of surface neuromuscular electrical stimulation on patients with post stroke dysphagia.

Evidence was insufficient to indicate that neuromuscular electrical stimulation alone was. This study aimed to identify the effect of effortful swallowing combined with neuromuscular electrical stimulation as a novel treatment approach in dysphagic patients. Methods among subacute stroke patients who were diagnosed as oropharyngeal dysphagia by videofluoroscopy swallowing study vfss those with oral dysfunction were. The grading of recommendations assessment development and evaluation approach was applied to evaluate the quality of evidence.

In recent years nmes combined with traditional swallowing therapy has been used to improve functional recovery in patients with post stroke dysphagia. This study aimed to investigate the effects of effortful swallowing combined with neuromuscular electrical stimulation on hyoid bone movement and swallowing function in stroke patients. Meng p 1 zhang s 2 wang q 1 wang p 3 han c 1 gao j 4 yue s 5. However the therapeutic effects of nmes lack supporting evidence.

Results eight randomized controlled trials and three quasi. Neuromuscular electrical stimulation nmes has been used as a therapeutic intervention for dysphagia. However there is a lack of studies regarding the effects of nmes in children with dysphagia. Trials and quasi randomized controlled trial were identified which compared the efficacy of neuromuscular electrical stimulation plus traditional therapy with traditional therapy in swallowing function.

Neuromuscular electrical stimulation has been used to improve swallowing function in neurologic patients with dysphagia but its effect on patients with dysphagia and parkinson s disease remains unclear.
