About

The goal of this clinical trial is to explore Clinical Effect of Intermittent Oro-esophageal Tube Feeding in Dysphagic Stroke Survivors. The main questions it aims to answer are:

Can Intermittent Oro-esophageal Tube Feeding improve psychological status in Dysphagic Stroke Survivors? Can Intermittent Oro-esophageal Tube Feeding improve social interaction in Dysphagic Stroke Survivors? Patients will be randomly allocated into the control group or the experimental group, all under rehabilitation treatment, the experimental group will be given Intermittent Oro-esophageal Tube Feeding as nutrition support and the control group will be given Nasogastric tube. The study lasts 15 days for each patient. Researchers will compare the Social Functioning Scale, Social Support Questionnaire, Patients Health Questionnaire-9, General Anxiety Disorder-7 to see if the Intermittent Oro-esophageal Tube Feeding can help improve the symptom.
