Effects of Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation on Patients With Dysphagia in Stroke Observed Based on Functional Near-infrared Spectroscopic

Effects of Healthy-side High-frequency Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation in Patients With Post Stroke Dysphagia: a Prospective Study Based on Functional Near-infrared Spectroscopic

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 24 Jan 2024

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This trial was a randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled trial.Thirty patients with post-stroke dysphagia were randomly assigned to the repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation(rTMS) group (n=15) or sham rTMS group (n=15). Both groups received conventional swallowing rehabilitation, and in addition, the rTMS group received 5hz repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation on the healthy side. Swallowing function was assessed at admission and after two weeks of treatment using the the Standardized Swallowing Assessment (SSA), the Penetration-Aspiration Scale (PAS), the Fiberoptic Endoscopic Dysphagia Severity Scale(FEDSS), the Functional Oral Intake Scale (FOIS), and the functional near-infrared spectroscopic(fNIRS).

Other illness

  • contraindications to rTMS: stimulation coils or the presence of a metal foreign body near the stimulated scalp, built-in pulse generators, cardiac stents, cardiac bypass grafting, etc;
  • skin infection or breakage on the head;
  • serious cardiac, pulmonary, hepatic, renal dysfunction, malignant tumors, serious complications;
  • poor patient compliance and evaluation,other neurological or psychiatric disorders;
  • severe cardiac, pulmonary, hepatic, or renal dysfunction, malignant tumors, and serious complications;

Other
