About

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.

Full 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.
