ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the effect of sensory stimulation on swallowing functional recovery in patients with cerebrovascular disease .Methods 60 cerebrovascular accident patients with swallowing dysfunction were randomly divided into research group ( 30 cases ) and control group ( 30 cases ) .The control group was given conventional swallowing function training ,the research group was given sensory stimulation training on this basis of the control group .Before treatment and 1 month after treatment , kubota drinking water test and feeding -swallowing function rating were used to evaluate the swallowing ability of the two groups .Results There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in terms of sex ,age and course of disease (all P >0.05).Before treatment,the ability of swallowing between the two groups had no statistically significant difference [( 3.27 ± 1.14)points vs.(2.97 ±1.43)points,t=0.646,P>0.05].After 1 month of treatment,the swallowing ability score of the two groups[(7.10 ±1.16)points vs.(5.07 ±1.55)points;t=8.046,P<0.01]and swallowing function grade (90.0％vs.63.3％,χ2 =7.638,P<0.05) were significantly higher than those before treatment .which of the study group were more significant , and the differences between the two groups were statistically significant .Conclusion Various sensory stimulation for patients with dyspraxia after cerebrovascular accident is obviously better than monotherapy ,which can effectively improve the swallowing function of patients with cerebrovascular disease .
