Trials and quasi randomized controlled trial were identified which compared the efficacy of neuromuscular electrical stimulation plus traditional therapy with traditional therapy in swallowing function.
Effects of neuromuscular electrical stimulation dysphagia.
In recent years nmes combined with traditional swallowing therapy has been used to improve functional recovery in patients with post stroke dysphagia.
Results eight randomized controlled trials and three quasi.
Methods among subacute stroke patients who were diagnosed as oropharyngeal dysphagia by videofluoroscopy swallowing study vfss those with oral dysfunction were.
Neuromuscular electrical stimulation nmes has been shown to provide positive effects on the swallowing function in adult populations with various neurological disorders.
Purpose to systematically review the literature examining the effects of neuromuscular electrical stimulation nmes on swallowing and neural activation.
However the therapeutic effects of nmes lack supporting evidence.

This study aimed to investigate the effects of effortful swallowing combined with neuromuscular electrical stimulation on hyoid bone movement and swallowing function in stroke patients.
The effect of surface neuromuscular electrical stimulation on patients with post stroke dysphagia.
To determine positive effect of neuromuscular electrical stimulation nmes in conventional dysphagia therapy on masseter muscle oral dysfunction of patients after subacute stroke.
However there is a lack of studies regarding the effects of nmes in children with dysphagia.
The review was conducted as part of a series examining the effects of oral motor exercises omes on speech swallowing and neural activation.
This study aimed to identify the effect of effortful swallowing combined with neuromuscular electrical stimulation as a novel treatment approach in dysphagic patients.
Swallow treatment with neuromuscular electrical stimulation seems to be more effective than that without neuromuscular electrical stimulation for post stroke dysphagia in the short term considering the limited number of studies available.
Evidence was insufficient to indicate that neuromuscular electrical stimulation alone was.
Neuromuscular electrical stimulation nmes has been used as a therapeutic intervention for dysphagia.
