Innovative Treatments for Neurogenic Dysphagia
New Approaches for the Treatment of Post-stroke Dysphagia and Dysphagia in Parkinson's Disease
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 3 Sept 2025
Brief summary (registry, in English)
This study aims to evaluate different non-invasive and neuromuscular stimulation treatments for neurogenic dysphagia in post-stroke and Parkinson's disease patients. The study is divided into three sub-studies: 1. Unilateral, bihemispheric, or sham transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) in post-stroke dysphagia (patients ≥2 weeks from onset). 2. Bihemispheric or sham tDCS in Parkinson's disease-related dysphagia. 3. Neuromuscular stimulation therapy in post-stroke and Parkinson's disease dysphagia.
