NCT03664479

Brief Summary

This study is a pilot study to prepare clinical trials to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of 4-channel electric stimulation therapy devices as a newly developed function for the treatment of dysphagia disorders. The purpose of this study is to investigate the difference in effect by the electric stimulation method and to obtain the values such as mean, standard deviation and so on, and to determine the number of subjects to be studied for clinical trials of validation permission in the future.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • pressure change

    baseline/ change from baseline when electrical stimulation applied(the object of this study is to know the temporary change of dysphagia when stimulating with 4ch NMES.)

  • videofluoroscopic dysphagia scale

    total score 100 from 0, 100 is worst outcome

    baseline/ change from baseline when electrical stimulation applied(the object of this study is to know the temporary change of dysphagia when stimulating with 4ch NMES.

Study Arms (2)

classical electrical stimulation protocol

EXPERIMENTAL

* apply 4 channel electrical stimulation device with protocol 1. * It will simultaneously stimulate suprahyoid, thyrohyoid and sternothyroid m with 4 channel electrical stimulation device. * during apply the device, we evaluate the manometry and videofluoroscopic swallowing study for evaluation of deglutition function.

Device: 4 channel Electrical Stimulation Device

revised sequential activation protocol

EXPERIMENTAL

* apply 4 channel electrical stimulation device with protocol 2 * Is a revised sequential activation protocol, it sequentially stimulate bilateral suprahyoid m (channel 1), pharyngeal constrictors (ch 2), thyrohyoid m (ch 3), sternothyroid m (ch 4) with 4 channel electrical stimulation device. * during apply the synchronized electrical stimulation device, we will evaluate the parameters same as group 1.

Device: 4 channel Electrical Stimulation Device

Interventions

electrical stimulation at muscles which related with deglutition

Eligibility Criteria

Age19 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • patient who do not belong to the criteria excluded for subjects aged 19 years or older
  • Patient who is confirmed to be dysphagia by videofluoroscopy
  • Patients who need clinical application of electrical stimulation therapy equipment for dysphagia. ex) stroke, cervical spinal cord injury
  • Those voluntarily agreeing to the clinical trial

You may not qualify if:

  • Patient who refuse inspection, do not agree
  • Simple "Commend obey", first step is impossible
  • When instructions can not be executed due to dementia, psychiatric disorders, etc.
  • Dysphagia occurs due to respiratory failure, neck surgery, etc.,
  • Pregnant women and lactating women
