“…However, strategies to target weakness from decreased excitatory input to motor neurons are not well understood [76] or researched. A study by Robbins et al [93] found that isometric tongue exercises improved tongue strength and swallowing function in patients post-CVA. However, it was unclear whether these results were due to improvements at the 'muscle level alone or neuroplastic modifications as well' [93].…”

Dysphagia is a common morbidity and cause of mortality following traumatic brain injury (TBI). Despite this, there is a paucity of evidence demonstrating the efficacy of dysphagia management strategies and treatments in this population. Typically, subjects with dysphagia following TBI are placed into non-specific 'neurogenic' dysphagia subject groups, which include subjects with degenerative neurological diseases, neurological cancers, and cerebrovascular accident. However, dysphagia following TBI has a multifactorial presentation, with causative and contributory factors including cognitivecommunication, behavioral, neurological, and mechanical issues. As such, the management for dysphagia post-TBI must be multifactorial, team-based and involve the patients' families and carers. Much of the research regarding the management and treatment of dysphagia in general is in its infancy: larger and more rigorous studies are required to demonstrate treatment efficacy. More studies specifically examining dysphagia and its management in the TBI population are required to ensure the future efficacy and accuracy of treatment.

“…Current clinical treatments for oropharyngeal dysphagia have targeted the tongue with the goal of strengthening associated musculature (5,38,58,63,89). Targeted tongue exercises, such as progressive resistance tongue exercise, have been shown to increase tongue forces and have been associated with improved swallowing function (29,58).…”

“…Studies indicate that the tongue pressure on the palate exercises are effective in the rehabilitation of lingual strength (16,22) and promote great activation of suprahyoid musculature (11) . The results of this study suggest that the other lingual exercises performed in this research can be equally effective as they showed the same degree of muscle activation of the exercises of tongue pressure on the palate.…”

o repouso e realização dos exercícios isométricos: sucção de língua no palato; pressão de língua no palato; pressão de ápice de língua contra o palato; pressão de ápice de língua contra a papila palatina; retração exagerada de língua; lateralização de língua e protrusão de língua. A ordem de realização dos exercícios foi randomizada entre os participantes. Os dados coletados foram analisados, utilizando-se os testes Kruskal Wallis e Mann-Whitney. Adotou-se como nível de significância em todas as análises, valor de p≤0,05. Resultados: A atividade elétrica encontrada para todos os exercícios diferiu apenas daquela medida durante o repouso lingual, não apresentando diferença com significância estatística quando os exercícios foram comparados entre si. Conclusão: Não houve diferença na ativação elétrica da musculatura supra-hióidea nos diversos tipos de exercícios realizados. Portanto, nenhum destes exercícios foi mais apropriado, em relação aos demais, para normalização dos dados.
