Abstract

|
Purpose:This study was to identify the effects of oropharyngeal sensory stimulation on a functional oral intake scale, ore-pharyngeal swallowing functions, and aspiration pneumonia symptoms with nasogastric tube insertion in stroke patients.
Methods:This study was a nonequivalent control group non-synchronized design. The subjects or the study were 32 patients who were hospitalized in Kosin Gaspel hospital. The experimental subjects were stimulated for $10{\sim}20$ minutes, 1 time per day. The intervention was implemented for 2 weeks.
Results:Participants in the experimental group significantly received a higher score in ore-pharyngeal swallowing function than those in the control group. However the participants in the experimental group only got a high score in the function oralintake scale which doesn¡¯¡¯t imply a statistical significance. In addition, they didn¡¯¡¯t geta remarkably higher score in aspiration pneumonia symptoms than those in the control group.
Conclusions:This study demonstrates that oropharyngeal sensory stimulation is effective in promoting recovery oro-pharyngeal swallowing function of nasogastric tube insertions in stroke patients.
