Resistance Swallowing Training in Patients With Tracheotomy

Not Applicable
Not yet recruiting
Conditions
Swallowing Training on Muscle Strength
Interventions
Other: progressive resistance swallowing training
Other: pure effortful swallowing
Registration Number
NCT06372795
Lead Sponsor
Shanghai Zhongshan Hospital
Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn investigate the effect of instrument-assisted early progressive resistance swallowing training on swallowing related muscle strength in critically ill patients. It will also learn about the safety of swallowing training. The main questions it aims to answer are:

* Does instrument-assisted early progressive resistance swallowing training increase the swallowing related muscle strength in critically ill patients?

* What medical problems do participants have when taking swallowing training?

Researchers will compare instrument-assisted early progressive resistance swallowing training to pure effortful swallowing to see if instrument-assisted early progressive resistance swallowing training works to increase muscle strength.

Participants will:

-Take instrument-assisted early progressive resistance swallowing training or pure effortful swallowing every day for 2 weeks and take muscle strength test every week.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Forced swallowing tongue pressureDay 14 after training

Place the pressure balloon on the prelingual pressure measurement site. The examiner placed the water in the participant 's mouth using a disposable 3 mL syringe. Subjects held 3 mL of water in their mouth and swallowed as forcefully as possible as directed by the examiner to observe instrument readings.
