Abstract

OBJECTIVE

Nasogastric tube feeding (NG) has been widely used in patients with bulbar palsy after ischemic stroke but is associated with a significant risk of complications including malnutrition and pneumonia. Intermittent oro-esophageal tube feeding (IOE) can help alleviate these concerns. This study explored the clinical effect of IOE versus NG on nutritional status, swallowing function, stroke-associated pneumonia, and depression in patients with bulbar palsy after ischemic stroke.
