Up to 84% of extubated patients had PED and approximately 60% penetrated and aspirated that can lead to aspiration pneumonia. The aims of this three-year, two-stage study are: 1) In the first stage, the investigators develop a two-item swallowing screen involving oral stereognosis and cough reflex test for predicting the resumption of oral intake and feeding-tube dependence by using a diagnostic accuracy study method; 2) In the second stage, the investigators conduct a randomized, open-label, controlled trial design to examine the effect of a once-daily, 7-day SOC Program on resumption of oral intake, incidence of penetration and aspiration, and incidence of pneumonia in adult patients who successfully extubated after ≥ 48 hours of endotracheal intubation.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '20 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Patient who is over 20 years old.\n* Patient how has received over 48 hours endotracheal intubation and had been successfully extubated.\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Patient who has a history of neuromuscular disease (e.g., parkinsonism or stroke) or head and neck deformities.\n* Patient who has preexisting difficulty swallowing.\n* Patient who has received a tracheostomy.\n* Patient who were unable to follow verbal instructions.\n* Patient who were on contact and droplet precautions (e.g., open tuberculosis)\n* Patient who were receiving continuous noninvasive ventilation after extubation that precluded the delivery of an SOC intervention'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT03284892', 'briefTitle': 'Screening and Intervention of Postextubation Dysphagia', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'National Taiwan University Hospital'}, 'officialTitle': 'Screen and Intervene: A Diagnostic Accuracy Study and A Randomized, Open-label, Controlled Trial for Postextubation Dysphagia', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': '201705051RIND'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'SOC group', 'description': 'Received SOC program addition to usual care', 'interventionNames': ['Behavioral: SOC program']}, {'type': 'NO_INTERVENTION', 'label': 'Control group', 'description': 'Received usual care only'}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'SOC program', 'type': 'BEHAVIORAL', 'description': 'A once-daily, 7-day SOC program, including oral-motor exercise, sensory stimulation and lubrication, and safe-swallowing education.', 'armGroupLabels': ['SOC group']}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'zip': '10055', 'city': 'Taipei', 'country': 'Taiwan', 'facility': 'National Taiwan University Hospital', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 25.05306, 'lon': 121.52639}}], 'overallOfficials': [{'name': 'Cheryl Chia-Hui Chen, Prof.', 'role': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'affiliation': 'School of Nursing, College of Medicine, National Taiwan University'}]}, 'ipdSharingStatementModule': {'ipdSharing': 'UNDECIDED'}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'National Taiwan University Hospital', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'collaborators': [{'name': 'Ministry of Science and Technology, Taiwan', 'class': 'OTHER_GOV'}], 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'SPONSOR'}}}}
