Study Summary
This study is a multisite, randomized clinical trial to determine the effectiveness of an 8-week rehabilitative exercise regime performed by patients with swallowing problems, termed dysphagia, compared to a control group of patients with swallowing problems who do not exercise, but receive standard clinical care. One hundred male and female patients will take part in this study from eight participating facilities around the country.
Primary Outcome
The Primary Outcome will be objectively measured from videofluoroscopic images. Improvement in swallowing is defined as a reduction in either the average Penetration/Aspiration scale score or the average Residue Scale score over the 11 swallows (3 3-ml thin liquid, 3 10-ml thin liquid, 3 3-ml semi-solid and 2 3-ml thin liquid effortful) combined with no increase in the other average score. If the series of swallows is terminated prematurely, the worst possible score (8 for Penetration/Aspiration
Interventions
