Effectiveness of Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation Added to Oral Motor Therapy in Cerebral Palsy
This randomized, controlled, single-blind trial aims to investigate the effectiveness of neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) combined with oral motor therapy in reducing drooling severity among children with cerebral palsy. Participants will be allocated to an intervention group (oral motor therapy plus NMES), a control group (oral motor therapy alone) and a sham group (oral motor therapy with placebo NMES).
Participants needed: 30
