Respiratory Rhythm Disorder
Conditions
Brief summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to explore The Effect of Active Breathing Exercises in Stroke Patients With Respiratory Rhythm Disorder. Patients will be randomly divided into an observation group and a control group, all receiving routine rehabilitation treatment. On this basis, the observation group will be given Active Breathing Exercises. Researchers will compare dysphagia of two groups.
Detailed description
A growing body of literature indicates the existence of a highly stable, coordinative relation between respiration and oropharyngeal swallowing in healthy adults. The goal of this clinical trial is to explore The Effect of Active Breathing Exercises in Stroke Patients With Respiratory Rhythm Disorder. Patients will be randomly divided into an observation group and a control group, all receiving routine rehabilitation treatment. On this basis, the observation group will be given Active Breathing Exercises. Researchers will compare dysphagia of two groups.
Interventions
BEHAVIORALRehabilitation training
Including 1) Basic treatment, including corresponding control of risk factors and education on healthy lifestyles. 2)Swallowing training, including lemon ice stimulation, mendelson maneuver, empty swallowing training, and pronunciation training.
BEHAVIORALActive Breathing Exercises
Active breathing exercises aim to enhance the strength and flexibility of respiratory muscles through a series of exercises, improving breathing patterns and increasing respiratory efficiency. The following are common components of active breathing exercises: 1) Deep Breathing. 2) Chest Expansion. 3) Diaphragmatic Breathing. 4) Coughing Techniques. 5) Expiratory Resistance Training. 6) Gradual Increase in Activity.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| The Penetration-Aspiration Scale | day 1 and day 15 | The Penetration-Aspiration Scale is used to assess the severity of airway invasion during swallowing. The score ranges from 1 to 8, with higher scores indicating more severe penetration or aspiration events. A lower score indicates better swallowing function and less risk of airway invasion, while a higher score suggests more significant impairment and increased risk of aspiration. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| The Functional Oral Intake Scale | day 1 and day 15 | The Functional Oral Intake Scale is used to measure the level of oral intake and diet consistency in individuals with dysphagia. The score ranges from 1 to 7, with higher scores indicating better functional oral intake and tolerance to a wider variety of food textures. A higher score indicates improved swallowing function and the ability to consume a better range of food consistencies, while a lower score suggests more significant impairments and a limited intake of oral food and liquids. |
| Yale Pharyngeal Residue Severity Rating Scale | day 1 and day 15 | The Yale Pharyngeal Residue Severity Rating Scale is used to assess the severity of pharyngeal residue after swallowing. The scale ranges from 1 to 5, with higher scores indicating worse severity of pharyngeal residue. A higher score on the Yale Pharyngeal Residue Severity Rating Scale indicates a larger amount of residue remaining in the pharynx after swallowing, while a lower score suggests less residue and better swallowing efficiency. |
| Fiberoptic Endoscopic Dysphagia Severity Scale | day 1 and day 15 | The Fiberoptic Endoscopic Dysphagia Severity Scale is used to assess the severity of swallowing disorders based on fiberoptic endoscopic examination. The score ranges from 1 to 8, with higher scores indicating more severe swallowing impairment. |
| Murray Secretion Scale | day 1 and day 15 | The Murray Secretion Scale is used to assess the amount and tenacity of tracheobronchial secretions. The score ranges from 0 to 4, with higher scores indicating a greater amount and/or thicker consistency of secretions. A higher score indicates a higher volume or thicker consistency of tracheobronchial secretions, while a lower score suggests minimal secretion accumulation and easier secretion management. |
| Swallowing Quality of Life | day 1 and day 15 | Swallowing Quality of Life is a self-report questionnaire designed to assess the impact of dysphagia on an individual's quality of life. The score ranges from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better swallowing-related quality of life. A higher score indicates a better quality of life related to swallowing function, while a lower score suggests a poorer quality of life and greater negative impact of dysphagia on daily activities and well-being. |
