Local Vibration for Drooling in Children With Cerebral Palsy

2. juni 2026 opdateret af: Merve Tunçdemir, Bitlis Eren University

Effects of Local Vibration on Orofacial Muscle Tone and Drooling in Children With Cerebral Palsy

This randomized-controlled trial evaluates local vibration therapy for drooling and orofacial muscle biomechanics in children with cerebral palsy. Participants receive either local vibration plus conventional physiotherapy or sham vibration plus conventional physiotherapy.

Detaljeret beskrivelse

This randomized-controlled trial aims to evaluate the effects of local vibration therapy on drooling severity and perioral and submandibular muscle biomechanics in children with cerebral palsy. Participants will be allocated to either an experimental group receiving local vibration in addition to conventional physiotherapy or a control group receiving sham vibration with conventional physiotherapy. Local vibration will be applied to the perioral and submandibular regions for 5 minutes each over three consecutive days. Assessments will be conducted at baseline, immediately after the third intervention session, and at 1-week follow-up.

Våben og indgreb

Deltagergruppe / Arm
Intervention / Behandling
Eksperimentel: Local Vibration Group
In this group, participants will receive conventional physiotherapy combined with local vibration therapy. Local vibration will be applied to the perioral and submandibular regions for 5 minutes each (total 10 minutes per session) once daily for three consecutive days using a vibration device.
Andet: Local Vibration Therapy
Local vibration therapy will be applied to the perioral and submandibular regions using a vibration device for 5 minutes each (total 10 minutes per session), once daily for three consecutive days.
Sham-komparator: Sham Vibration Group
In this group, participants will receive conventional physiotherapy combined with sham vibration. The vibration device will be activated but not applied to the skin surface. The procedure will mimic the experimental protocol in duration and setting and will be performed once daily for three consecutive days.
Andet: Sham Vibration
Sham vibration will be administered using the same device without contact with the skin. The intervention will be delivered for 10 minutes per session, once daily for three consecutive days.

Foranstaltningsbeskrivelse
Tidsramme
Muscle Tone
Tidsramme: Baseline, immediately after the third intervention session, and 1-week follow-up
Muscle tone of the perioral and submandibular muscles (orbicularis oris and anterior digastric muscles) will be evaluated using a portable hand-held myotonometer (MyotonPRO). The MyotonPRO applies a short mechanical impulse to the skin overlying the muscle or fascia. The tissue response generates a signal that is recorded, and the internal software produces an acceleration graph.
Baseline, immediately after the third intervention session, and 1-week follow-up
Muscle Stiffness
Tidsramme: Baseline, immediately after the third intervention session, and 1-week follow-up
Muscle stiffness of the perioral and submandibular muscles (orbicularis oris and anterior digastric muscles) will be evaluated using a portable hand-held myotonometer (MyotonPRO). The MyotonPRO applies a short mechanical impulse to the skin overlying the muscle or fascia. The tissue response generates a signal that is recorded, and the internal software produces an acceleration graph.

Muscle Elasticity (logarithmic decrement)
Tidsramme: Baseline, immediately after the third intervention session, and 1-week follow-up
Muscle elasticity of the perioral and submandibular muscles (orbicularis oris and anterior digastric muscles) will be evaluated using a portable hand-held myotonometer (MyotonPRO).

Tidsramme
Change in drooling severity and frequency
Tidsramme: Baseline, immediately after the third intervention session, and 1-week follow-up
Drooling severity and frequency will be assessed using a standardized drooling scale, with severity scored from 1 (no drooling) to 5 (severe drooling) and frequency scored from 1 (no drooling) to 4 (constant drooling)
Baseline, immediately after the third intervention session, and 1-week follow-up
Global Rating of Change Scale
Tidsramme: Immediately after the third intervention session and 1-week follow-up
Parent-reported global rating of change using the Global Rating of Change Scale. Scores range from -7 (very much worse) to +7 (very much improved), with higher scores indicating greater perceived improvement.
Immediately after the third intervention session and 1-week follow-up
Caregiver-reported drooling burden
Tidsramme: Baseline, immediately after the third intervention session, and 1-week follow-up
Caregivers will report the frequency of clothing changes and use of tissues related to drooling.
