RESUMO
Objective To explore the effect of oropharyngeal healthy exercise combined with guided education in the treatment of dysphagia in patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD). Methods 90 AD inpatients in the geriatric psychiatric department of Guangzhou Huiai Hospital during May 2014 and August 2015 were equally randomized into the study group and the control group with a random digit table:the former group was treated with routine oral muscles training and the latter with oropharyngeal healthy exercises combined with guided education plus routine muscles training. The comparison was done between the groups in terms of the total curative effectiveness 4 weeks following the intervention. Result The total effective rate in the study group was significantly higher than that in the control group (P<0.01). Conclusion The oropharyngeal healthy exercise combined with guided education can effectively promote the recovery of swallowing function in AD patients.
