Resistance Swallowing Training in Patients With Tracheotomy
Sponsor: Shanghai Zhongshan Hospital
Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn investigate the effect of instrument-assisted early progressive resistance swallowing training on swallowing related muscle strength in critically ill patients. It will also learn about the safety of swallowing training. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does instrument-assisted early progressive resistance swallowing training increase the swallowing related muscle strength in critically ill patients? * What medical problems do participants have when taking swallowing training? Researchers will compare instrument-assisted early progressive resistance swallowing training to pure effortful swallowing to see if instrument-assisted early progressive resistance swallowing training works to increase muscle strength. Participants will: -Take instrument-assisted early progressive resistance swallowing training or pure effortful swallowing every day for 2 weeks and take muscle strength test every week.

Conditions
Interventions
pure effortful swallowing
The investigator instructed the patient to "swallow forcefully while squeezing the tongue upward and backward in the direction of the soft palate" based on the sounds of an electronic timer.
progressive resistance swallowing training
Patients in the test group, resistance swallowing exercise was performed by providing external resistance through Iowa Oral Performance Instrument (IOPI), and all other protocols were performed the same as those in the control group.
