Abstract:
ObjectiveTo analyze the current status, hotspot and development trends of rehabilitation technologies for post-stroke dysphagia (PSD). MethodsLiteratures related to rehabilitation technologies for PSD were retrieved from CNKI, VIP and Web of Science Core Collection from inception to July, 2025. Visualization analysis was conducted using CiteSpace 6.3.R1 and VOSviewer 1.2.20. ResultsA total of 1 265 articles were included, consisting of 794 Chinese and 471 English publications. The annual volume of Chinese literature peaked in 2019 (74 articles) and English literature peaked in 2022 (61 articles). Research hotspots included low-frequency surface neuromuscular electrical stimulation, repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation, surface electromyography biofeedback and transcranial direct current stimulation. Keyword clustering and timeline analysis indicated that researches evolved from early traditional rehabilitation methods to the diversified and integrated application of combined rehabilitation technologies. ConclusionResearch on rehabilitation technologies for PSD is developing rapidly. Future efforts should focus on researches of multi-technology integration, individualized treatment protocols and long-term efficacy assessments.
