Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1) Patients with cognitive decline at the time of admission 2) Patients for whom it is difficult to perform the tongue function training and examination in this study for the following reasons (1) Patients with tongue function impairment at the time of admission (2)Patients with oral disorders at the time of admission (3) Preoperative starting value of tongue pressure is less than 15 kPa (4) Patients who are unable to assume the sitting position for training and measurement (sitting on the bed or sitting on the edge of the bed).

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Tongue pressure measurement test to determine the effect of tongue exercise training (3-week program) on the intervention group and non-intervention group. (The patient should always be in a sitting position, sitting on the bed, or sitting on the edge of the bed during the measurement. If the patient has dentures, the dentures will be removed from the first measurement, and since the patient has no front teeth, the blowtorch will be fixed with the gums and gauze will be applied to protect the gums). The following data were collected and compared for the percentage of patients with a tongue pressure of 20 kPa or higher on days 2 to 5 after tracheal tube removal (after withdrawal when NPPV is worn) to day 21, and for the percentage of patients with a tongue pressure of 20 kPa or higher on day 21. Pa on days 2-5 of tracheal tube removal (after withdrawal in the case of NPPV placement) to 21 days. | — |
