The Avant Rehabilitation Program And Cerebrolysin For Treatment Of Post-Stroke Dysphagia: A Case Report

Abstract

Dysphagia is recorded in approximately a third of ischemic stroke patients and is associated with malnutrition, aspiration, and pneumonia. We report a case study that assessed dysphagia (GUSS, Gugging Swallowing Screen), paralysis (MRC, Medical Research Council), and disability (mRS, modified Rankin Scale) in the AVANT program (Austrian Vietnamese Advancement Neurorehabilitation Treatment)-a collaboration program between Vietnam and Austria to standardize and systemize neurorehabilitation after stroke practice in Vietnam.
