Recruiting studies
- NCT06887855Recruiting
Swallowing therapy for recent stroke patients
This trial tests two new exercises for people who have trouble swallowing after a stroke. If you had a stroke within the last six months and haven't tried swallowing therapy before, this may help you regain strength in your throat muscles.
Doha, Baladiyat ad DawhahAges 18–75 - NCT05591040Recruiting
Biofeedback to help swallow problems after stroke
This trial studies whether using “biofeedback” (seeing your body’s muscle signals on a screen) along with standard care can improve swallowing after a stroke. You might be eligible if you have ongoing swallow trouble and can safely do the training sessions.
Venice-LidoAges 18–89 - NCT07081399RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Care plan to prevent complications after tube removal
This trial tests a special care plan for adults who are on a breathing machine (ventilator) for the first time. The goal is to see if this plan helps prevent problems after the breathing tube is removed.
Damanhūr, EgyptAges 18–60 - NCT07546045Recruiting
Robotic Surgery and Swallowing Recovery for Head and Neck Cancer
This trial tests a specialized robotic surgical approach for head and neck cancers, combined with personalized speech and swallowing rehabilitation. The goal is to remove tumors while preserving organ function and improving your ability to swallow and speak after surgery.

Acupuncture for Swallowing and Tube Removal After Brain Injury
This study tests if acupuncture on the ear and body can help people with severe brain injuries regain the ability to swallow safely and have their breathing tube removed. It's for patients who are at least 1 month but no more than 3 months after a stroke or brain bleed.
FlorenceAges 18 years+ - NCT06877897Enrolling by invitation
Ultrasound vs speech therapist for NG tube removal decision
This study is testing whether a simple ultrasound of the neck (called submental ultrasound) can help doctors decide when it's safe to remove a nasogastric (NG) tube, compared to a speech therapist's evaluation. If you have an NG tube that was placed due to a recent illness and are now recovering, this trial may help find a more reliable way to know when you can safely eat by mouth again.
Taipei, TaipeiAges 18 years+ - NCT05935618Recruiting
Occupational therapy rehab for frail older adults with swallowing trouble
This trial tests an occupational therapy–based rehabilitation program to help frail older adults with swallowing problems work more safely and comfortably. You may be considered if your swallowing screen results fall in a specific range and you can participate in the therapy and consent process.
HvidovreAges 65 years+ - NCT03979235Recruiting
Rehab effectiveness programs for people after stroke
This trial is testing rehabilitation programs by studying how well they work for people with movement problems after a stroke. You may be able to join if you can complete the rehab assessment and follow testing instructions.
BeijingAges 18–80 - NCT06638944RecruitingPhase 2
Wearable device training for swallowing after stroke or Parkinson's
This study tests a wearable device that gives feedback on swallowing exercises. It may improve swallowing safety after a stroke or for people with Parkinson's disease.
Champaign, IllinoisAges 50–90 - NCT06695455Recruiting
Can music help people with Parkinson's swallow better?
This trial tests if a rhythmic sound cue can reduce rolling (a swallowing problem) in people with Parkinson's. If you have trouble with solid foods but not severe liquid aspiration, you may qualify.
Saint-Sébastien-de-Morsent, NormandyAges 18 years+ - NCT05700825RecruitingPhase 2
Rehab training to improve swallow safety in Parkinson’s
This trial tests a rehabilitation approach aimed at improving airway protection during swallowing in people with Parkinson’s disease. It may help reduce the risk of food or liquid going down the wrong way by improving swallow safety.
West Lafayette, IndianaAges 50–90 - NCT07620210Recruiting
Swallowing Therapy and Pressure Ball Training After Stroke
This study tests whether a swallowing therapy program (CTAR) combined with a pressure ball exercise helps older adults who had a stroke recover their ability to swallow safely. Many stroke survivors struggle with swallowing, which can lead to serious health problems, so this research aims to find better ways to help.
Tainan, Tainan CityAges 65–90 - NCT07267468Recruiting
App and nutrition plan for swallowing recovery after stroke
This study tests a mobile health program combining rehabilitation exercises and a personal nutrition plan to help people recover from swallowing problems (dysphagia) after a stroke. The goal is to see if using the app improves swallowing and quality of life.
Algeciras, CadizAges 18 years+ - NCT06988215Recruiting
Taping and swallowing exercises for stroke patients with swallowing difficulty
This trial tests whether kinesiology taping (a special tape placed on the skin) combined with swallowing exercises can help people who have had a stroke and have trouble swallowing. It may improve muscle thickness and swallowing function.
Istanbul, bahçelievlerAges 50–80 - NCT05336760Recruiting
ALS study of swallowing comfort, quality of life, and PEG views
This study looks at swallowing problems in people with ALS and how they affect quality of life, including people’s attitudes toward PEG (a feeding tube). It may help researchers understand what support and information could improve comfort and day-to-day living.
