Mylohyoid motor evoked potentials can effectively predict persistent dysphagia 3 months poststroke
Neurogastroenterology & Motility Apr 01, 2018
Lee KM, et al. - The association between mylohyoid motor-evoked potentials (MH-MEP) and swallowing function, as well as the value of MH-MEP for predicting aspiration 3 months post-stroke were assessed in subacute patients within 1 month of their first stroke using videofluoroscopic swallowing studies (VFSS). MH-MEP was well-correlated with dysphagia severity, as analyzed via VFSS. The resting motor threshold (rMT) and amplitude ratios of MH-MEP were possibly effective in predicting persistent dysphagia 3 months post-stroke.
