Effects Of Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation Dysphagia

Purpose to systematically review the literature examining the effects of neuromuscular electrical stimulation nmes on swallowing and neural activation.

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. 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. Methods among subacute stroke patients who were diagnosed as oropharyngeal dysphagia by videofluoroscopy swallowing study vfss those with oral dysfunction were. 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.

Neuromuscular electrical stimulation nmes has been shown to provide positive effects on the swallowing function in adult populations with various neurological disorders. 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. Neuromuscular electrical stimulation nmes has been used as a therapeutic intervention for dysphagia. Results eight randomized controlled trials and three quasi.

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. In recent years nmes combined with traditional swallowing therapy has been used to improve functional recovery in patients with post stroke dysphagia. The effect of surface neuromuscular electrical stimulation on patients with post stroke dysphagia. Evidence was insufficient to indicate that neuromuscular electrical stimulation alone was.

However the therapeutic effects of nmes lack supporting evidence. This study aimed to identify the effect of effortful swallowing combined with neuromuscular electrical stimulation as a novel treatment approach in dysphagic patients. However there is a lack of studies regarding the effects of nmes in children with dysphagia. Meng p 1 zhang s 2 wang q 1 wang p 3 han c 1 gao j 4 yue s 5.

To determine positive effect of neuromuscular electrical stimulation nmes in conventional dysphagia therapy on masseter muscle oral dysfunction of patients after subacute stroke.
