System-integrated Technology-enabled Model of Care to Improve the Health of Stroke Patients With Dysphagia
Sponsor: Zeng Xi
Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to explore the effects of the system-integrated technology-enabled model of care in ischemic stroke patients with dysphagia. The main question it aims to answer is: Can one-year system-integrated technology-enabled model of care improve the incidence of aspiration pneumonia, swallowing function, nutritional status, self-care ability, and quality of life among post-discharge ischemic stroke patients with dysphagia. Researchers will compare system-integrated technology-enabled model group and control group to see if there are significant intergroup differences in the incidence of aspiration pneumonia, swallowing function, nutritional status, self-care ability, and quality of life. Participants will be divided into the system-integrated technology-enabled model group and the control group. Participants in the system-integrated technology-enabled model group will receive support and follow-up services for dysphagia management, as well as physician-patient communication, with the assistance of mobile phones for one year. Participants in the control group will receive routine management.

System-integrated Technology-enabled Model of Care
The System-integrated Technology-enabled Model of Care includes the following components: enhanced monitoring and corresponding countermeasures for patients' daily diet, living habits and physical conditions via mobile devices; increased frequency of physician-patient communication; provision of dysphagia-related knowledge training and management guidance for county-level hospitals; delivery of swallowing-related health education to patients; and incentives. Doctors from trial site hospitals will be trained, and establish professional connections between doctors from higher-level hospitals. Participants and their family members will receive regular follow-up, online doctor-participant meetings, and online support groups with fellow participants via the mobile platform. The platform also provides convenient access to educational materials, timed reminders, and messaging functions.
