Abstract
|
|
|
|
Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) is a relatively new therapeutic approach for dysphagia, involving the application of electrical current across the skin to excite the nerve or muscle tissue. Recently, investigators are trying to establish a scientific basis for NMES, but there is still debate over the effect of NMES in dysphagia rehabilitation. Moreover, there is a paucity of evidence about patient selection, electrode placement, stimulation parameters, and application duration. This paper is aimed to review recent evidence of NMES for dysphagia management.
