The articles included in this journal self-study include
evidence-based assessment and intervention practices for children with cleft
lip and/or palate, a specialized population with which many SLPs have limited
experience. The first article describes a clinical measure for quantifying
nasal air emission using a nasal accelerometer. The second article illustrates
the developmental timeline of typical velopharyngeal function in speech
production and then compares it to what is seen in toddlers with repaired
cleft. The third article offers treatment efficacy data for a naturalistic
intervention with phonological emphasis for toddlers with cleft lip and/or
palate. The final article examines a number of factors that can influence
language development in internationally adopted children with cleft lip and/or
palate.
Learning Outcomes
You will be able to:
- describe
a new objective measure for quantifying nasal air emission
- summarize
developmental differences in velopharyngeal function between toddlers with
repaired cleft and their typically developing peers
- describe
a naturalistic intervention with phonological emphasis for language delays
associated with cleft lip and/or palate
- explain
predictors of delayed language for internationally adopted children with cleft
lip and/or palate
