This study looks at two ways to help people with Parkinson's disease who have trouble swallowing, called dysphagia. One method is called Intermittent Oro-esophageal Tube Feeding, which is a way to provide food directly to the stomach through a tube. The other method is called a Nasogastric Tube Feeding, which also involves a tube but has a higher risk of problems. The study wants to see if the Intermittent Oro-esophageal Tube Feeding is better at improving nutrition and daily activities than the Nasogastric Tube.
Key Points:
- The study involves routine therapy and tube feeding methods to support nutrition.
- Participants are divided into two groups to compare the feeding methods.
- Participants must be over 18, have Parkinson's disease, and be able to cooperate with the study.
