To Assess the Safety and Efficacy of the 4 Channel NMES Compensatory Medical Device in Swallowing, Multicenter Study

July 31, 2020 updated by: Ju Seok Ryu, Seoul National University Hospital

A Prospective Study of Compensatory Medical Device Pivotal Clinical Study to Assess the Safety and Efficacy of the 4 Channel NMES, Multicenter Study

This study is a confirmation study to prepare clinical trials to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of 4-channel electric stimulation therapy devices as a newly developed function for the treatment of dysphagia disorders. The purpose of this study is to validate the 4ch NMES device.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Revised sequential activation protocol

Apply 4 channel electrical stimulation device with a revised sequential activation protocol.

It sequentially activates Rt. suprahyoid m (ch 1), Lt. suprahyoid m (ch 2), thyrohyoid m (ch 3), sternothyroid m (ch 4) with 4 channel electrical stimulation device.

electrical stimulation at muscles which related with deglutition
No Intervention: control subject
Apply 4 channel electrical stimulation device without any stimulation
