Official Title: The Effect of Motor Imagery on Swallowing Functions in Patients With Post-Stroke Dysphagia: A Single-Blind Randomized Controlled Study
Brief Summary:
This study evaluated the effects of motor imagery added to conventional swallowing rehabilitation in patients with dysphagia after stroke. Dysphagia, or swallowing difficulty, is a common problem after stroke and may increase the risk of aspiration, pneumonia, malnutrition, dehydration, and reduced quality of life.Participants with post-stroke dysphagia were randomly assigned to one of three groups: video-assisted motor imagery, motor imagery alone, or control.
