Brief Summary

This is a randomized controlled study, including dysphagic patients with Parkinson's syndrome who were received in the department of rehabilitation medicine. All patients are randomly allocated to the observation group or the control group. Both groups are provided with comprehensive rehabilitation. Besides, the observation group additionally undergoes the stellate ganglion block. At admission and after 10-day treatment, Functional Oral Intake Scale, Drooling amount, depression are assessed.

Detailed Description

Palliation of dysphagia in patients with Parkinson's syndrome continues to be a challenge.

This is a randomized controlled study, including dysphagic patients with Parkinson's syndrome who were received in the department of rehabilitation medicine. All patients are randomly allocated to the observation group or the control group. Both groups are provided with comprehensive rehabilitation. Besides, the observation group additionally undergoes the stellate ganglion block. At admission and after 10-day treatment, Functional Oral Intake Scale, Drooling amount, depression are assessed.

Conditions

Study Groups

Comprehensive rehabilitation+Stellate ganglion block

Patients enrolled are firstly numbered for privacy with software and divided into the observation group and the control group with. Additionally, the staffs involved in assessment would not participate in the intervention of the study. The treatment lasts 10 days.

Group Type: EXPERIMENTAL

Comprehensive rehabilitation

Intervention Type: BEHAVIORAL

The study lasted 10d for each patient. During the treatment, All the participants were provided with the rehabilitation therapy, which included routine rehabilitation, cognitive training, swallowing function training.

Stellate ganglion block

Intervention Type: PROCEDURE

Based on the invention above, the patients in the observation group were provided with Stellate ganglion block , using 1.5ml of 2% Lidocaine hydrochloride (1ml: 0.5mg) and 500ug of Vitamin B12 (1ml: 0.5g). The percutaneous approach via the paratracheal route was used for Stellate ganglion block . The operator stood on the side of the block, instructed the patient to lie supine with a thin pillow placed below the shoulders, and tilted the head 45° towards the blocked side, fully exposing the neck. Then, routine disinfection of the neck skin was performed. The puncture site was located 2.5 cm above the sternoclavicular joint and 1.5 cm lateral to the midline of the neck.

Lidocaine hydrochloride

Intervention Type: DRUG

Based on the invention above, the patients in the observation group were provided with Stellate ganglion block , using 1.5ml of 2% Lidocaine hydrochloride (1ml: 0.5mg) and 500ug of Vitamin B12 (1ml: 0.5g). The percutaneous approach via the paratracheal route was used for Stellate ganglion block . The operator stood on the side of the block, instructed the patient to lie supine with a thin pillow placed below the shoulders, and tilted the head 45° towards the blocked side, fully exposing the neck. Then, routine disinfection of the neck skin was performed. The puncture site was located 2.5 cm above the sternoclavicular joint and 1.5 cm lateral to the midline of the neck.

Comparator: Comprehensive rehabilitation+placebo

Patients enrolled are firstly numbered for privacy with software and divided into the observation group and the control group with. Additionally, the staffs involved in assessment would not participate in the intervention of the study. The treatment lasts 10 days.

Group Type: PLACEBO_COMPARATOR

Comprehensive rehabilitation

Intervention Type: BEHAVIORAL

The study lasted 10d for each patient. During the treatment, All the participants were provided with the rehabilitation therapy, which included routine rehabilitation, cognitive training, swallowing function training.

Placebo injection

Intervention Type: PROCEDURE
