Abstract
Stroke is damage to the central nervous system due to vascular pathology. Stroke causes many complications. One of the most important of these complications is dysphagia. Dysphagia is a major cause of morbidity and mortality. In recent years, the benefits of using interferential current (IFC) stimulation in the treatment of dysphagia due to various etiologies have been demonstrated. However, there are significant gaps in the literature regarding patient populations, treatment procedures, and evaluation of treatment response. Here, we report the treatment of three cases of dysphagia after ischemic stroke with IFC stimulation and review the current literature. The patients had no previous treatment for dysphagia and were using only compensatory methods. This case report highlights the benefit of IFC stimulation in the treatment of post-stroke dysphagia both clinically and videofluoroscopically. It should be kept in mind that IFC stimulation may be an important alternative in the treatment of post-stroke dysphagia.
