ABSTRACT

Background: Dysphagia is a condition that affects the normal deglutition leading to difficulty in swallowing food and liquid. It is a common problem in stroke survivors. Dysphagia after stroke can cause various complications, especially aspiration pneumonia, which can be life-threatening. Some rehabilitation methods reduce the severity of swallowing, improve quality of life, reduce the L-tube intubation period, and reduce the hospital stay duration in patients with dysphagia after stroke. The study compares the effect of the Shaker exercise with conventional therapy and the Masako maneuver with conventional therapy on post-stroke dysphagia. Some studies show the individual effectiveness of the shaker exercise and the Masako maneuver in post-stroke patients. Hence the need arises to evaluate the effectiveness of the Masako maneuver and Shaker exercises in post-stroke dysphagia patients.

Aim: To study the effects of the Shaker exercise with conventional therapy and Masako maneuver with conventional therapy in patients with dysphagia following stroke.

Methodology: convenient sampling was done for the selection of participants. Thirty patients who met the inclusion criteria were recruited from various hospitals in Vadodara. There were 11 men and 19 women among the 30 participants. The patients were divided into two groups. Group 1 received Shaker exercise along with conventional therapy, and Group 2 was received Masako maneuver along with conventional therapy. Baseline data were collected by EAT-10 scale. After 4 weeks, the participants were evaluated again. 

Result: The data were analyzed using the paired t-test. During the between-group comparison, group 1 (Shaker Group) showed greater improvement on EAT-10 scale than Group 2 (Masako Group). The SPSS version 23 used for data analysis and the p-value is 0.05.

Conclusion & Clinical Implication: the present study concluded that Shaker exercise along with conventional therapy showed greater improvement in swallowing function and quality of life in patients with post stroke dysphagia. Shaker exercise obtained better results with regards to quality of life and swallowing function than Masako maneuver with conventional therapy.

Key words: stroke, dysphagia, Shaker Exercise, Masako Maneuver, EAT-10 scale, swallowing, and quality of life.
