Abstract:
Objective To study the effect of rehabilitation in stroke patients with dysphagia. Methods 31 cases with dysphagia were randomly divided into rehabilitation group (17 cases) and control group (14 cases). Two groups were given same basic therapy on the whole, while the early rehabilitation was performed on the patients in rehabilitation group three times a day for 3 weeks. We compared assessment score of dysphagia by VFSS (videofluoroscopic swallowing study), and observed serum potassium, sodium, albumin levels and the incidence of inhalation-pneumonia in two groups before and after treatment. Results VFSS score (7.2?2.1) of rehabilitation group was markedly higher than before treatment (4.0?1.9) and control group (4.7?2.1)(all P0.05).Conclusions Rehabilitation has a remarkable effect on stroke patients with dysphagia.
