“…It is essential to measure adherence to exercise when evaluating effect of an intervention. Although the HLE is a strenuous exercise to perform, and high intensity is a factor known to influence compliance negatively, adherence in the present study was high throughout the 12 months [ 12 , 39 ]. In previous studies of swallowing exercises, compliance has been low, making it difficult to draw conclusions [ 38 ].…”

“…The head-lift exercise (HLE) was originally developed to improve the upper esophageal sphincter (UES) by strengthening the suprahyoidal, thyrohyoid, and pharyngeal muscles to improve hyoid and laryngeal elevation and consequently the UES opening [ 11 ]. The HLE has been used as an intervention for dysphagia among HNC patients for several years [ 12 ] as research studies have showed some evidence of less aspiration during swallowing and less post-swallow residue as well as better preservation of the UES opening, hyoid bone movement, and strengthened suprahyoid muscles [ 13 15 ]. However, results from a large, randomized control trial have previously been lacking.…”
