摘要：
Dysphagia defined as difficulty in swallowing, can result from multiple causes including, Stroke, head injury, etc. It is associated with neuro-muscular impairments in different age groups. VitalStim (R) therapy is a relatively new approach to treat dysphagia. It provides neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) of the involved muscles to improve the function of swallowing. This review summarizes the usefulness of VitalStim (R) in dysphagia, and barriers in its use in Pakistan.
