Clinical trials: Swallowing Function
Stroke
Fine Motor Skills and Post-Stroke Swallowing
Swallowing disorders are a common consequence of stroke. After stroke, some patients retain a dysphagia responsible for an alteration of the quality of life, respiratory diseases and a degradation of the general health status.
