Rehabilitation Assessment and Progress Tracking System Based on Video Images for Dysphagic Patients

Thailand30 participantsStarted 2021-02-01

Plain-language summary

The current cervical range of motion (CROM) and tongue movement measurement methods are not reliable between observers, which is not practical in real-world usage. This research is to develop the cervical range of motion measurement, and tongue movement estimation software, to compare between the developed software and the current measurement techniques, and to test in clinical aspects for reliability and validity assessment. The investigators investigate the developed software in healthy people in phase 1. In phases 2 and 3, the investigators compare the software to the standard measurement methods in dysphagic patients who have head and neck cancer for reliability and validity.

Questions worth asking your doctor

Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.

1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.

Questions for the trial coordinator

The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.

1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?

A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
