Effect of Pharyngeal Inhibition by rTMS on Swallowing Function

Effect of Pharyngeal Cortical Area Inhibition Induced by rTMS on Swallowing Function in Healthy Subject: Video Fluoroscopic Study.

• Status: Completed
• Phase: N/A
• Study type: Interventional
• Enrollment: 10 (actual)
• Sponsor: University Hospital, Rouen · Academic / Other
• Sex: All
• Age: 18 Years – 50 Years
• Healthy volunteers: Accepted

Summary

The aim of this study is to test the hypothesis that rTMS on the dominant swallowing hemisphere is able to modify swallowing coordination.

Detailed description

The aim of the study is to demonstrate that rTMS (on the dominant hemisphere, on the nondominant hemisphere and placebo rTMS) are able to modify swallowing coordination on healthy subjects. Swallowing function will be studied before and after rTMS with videomanometry.

Conditions

• Oropharyngeal Dysphagia

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
PROCEDURE	magnetic stimulation	rTMS on pharyngeal cortical area in healthy subjects or sham rTMS on pharyngeal cortical area in healthy subjects
