Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Stellate Nerve Block+ routine rehabilitation treatment
The patients were given Nerve block and routine rehabilitation treatment for 10 days.
|
The percutaneous approach via the paratracheal route was used for Stellate ganglion block.
The operator stood on the side of the block, instructed the patient to lie supine with a thin pillow placed below the shoulders, and tilted the head 45° towards the blocked side, fully exposing the neck.
Then, routine disinfection of the neck skin was performed.
The puncture site was located 2.5 cm above the sternoclavicular joint and 1.5 cm lateral to the midline of the neck.
the patients were provided with Stellate ganglion block, using 1.5ml of 2% Lidocaine hydrochloride (1ml: 0.5mg) and 500ug of Vitamin B12 (1ml: 0.5g)
All the participants are provided with the comprehensive rehabilitation (routine rehabilitation and swallowing function training).
The routine rehabilitation included intervention for risk factors (blood pressure, blood lipids, blood glucose, smoking and alcohol restriction, exercise, etc.).
|
Placebo Comparator: placebo+routine rehabilitation treatment
The patients were given placebo block and routine rehabilitation treatment for 10 days.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Functional Oral Intake Scale
Time Frame: day 1 and day 10
|
The Functional Oral Intake Scale (FOIS) is a tool used to assess the level of independence in oral intake for individuals with swallowing difficulties.
The scale ranges from Level 1 to Level 7, with higher Levels indicating better swallowing function.
|
day 1 and day 10
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Yale Pharyngeal Residue Severity Rating Scale
Time Frame: day 1 and day 10
|
The Yale Pharyngeal Residue Severity Rating Scale (Yale) was used to assess the severity of pharyngeal residue in patients.
While PAS primarily evaluated whether food or liquid entered the airway, Yale focused on the condition of pharyngeal residue.
The scale includes the four levels from 0 to 3, with lower levels indicating less severe pharyngeal residue.
|
day 1 and day 10
|
penetration-aspiration scale
Time Frame: day 1 and day 10
|
this assessment evaluated the patient's swallowing of contrast medium and whether there was retention, penetration, and aspiration.
It included multiple items, each with the corresponding criteria, Specifically, whether the swallowed material entered the airway, passed through or contacted the vocal cords, and whether the patient exhibited the corresponding ability to clear.
There were 8 levels in the results, with higher levels indicating more severe aspiration.
|
day 1 and day 10
|
The Swallowing Quality of Life Questionnaire
Time Frame: day 1 and day 10
|
The Swallowing Quality of Life Questionnaire (SWAL-QOL) is a tool designed to assess how swallowing difficulties impact an individual's quality of life. The questionnaire covers various aspects such as eating, speech, and social interaction to understand the challenges and effects of swallowing disorders on daily life. SWAL-QOL scores can range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating a better quality of life related to swallowing function. Therefore, a higher SWAL-QOL score reflects less negative impact of swallowing difficulties on an individual's overall quality of life, highlighting better adaptation to and management of swallowing issues. |
