Cooling sensation drink test for safe swallowing after stroke
Part of Brain & nervous system, Digestive system, Ear, nose & throat, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests a cooling sensation drink to help stroke patients with swallowing problems safely take a high-calorie, high-protein supplement. It looks at whether the cooling sensation makes swallowing easier and safer.

This trial looks at two ways to feed people who have trouble swallowing after a stroke: a tube placed into the stomach (gastrostomy) or a tube through the mouth. The goal is to see which method works better for recovery.
This trial studies whether allowing patients who are on thickened liquids to also have sips of plain water is safe. It may help people who are recovering from stroke or injury and can protect their own airway.
This trial tests a more intensive swallow-therapy program for people with difficulty swallowing soon after an ischemic stroke. It may help improve safety and function when eating and drinking.
This trial compares two types of feeding tubes to see which one helps protect your airway and improve swallowing after a stroke. It is for people who have had their first ischemic stroke within the past month and need help eating.
This study tests whether a feeding tube placed directly into the stomach (gastrostomy) or used only for some meals helps people who have trouble swallowing after a stroke. It aims to see if these methods improve recovery.
This trial tests a non-invasive brain stimulation technique that uses gentle electrical currents to help improve swallowing in people who have had a stroke. It aims to make swallowing safer and reduce food or liquid going into the lungs.
