Low-Oxygen breathing may help brain injury patients swallow safely
NCT ID NCT06520358
Summary
This study tested whether a breathing treatment called acute intermittent hypoxia (AIH) could help improve swallowing safety in people with chronic traumatic brain injury. Participants were adults with mild-to-moderate brain injuries who received either the breathing treatment plus swallowing exercises or exercises alone. The goal was to see if the combined approach better protected the airway from food or liquid entering the lungs.
