简要总结
To develop a remediation software program that is specific for correcting speech errors in patients with velopharyngeal dysfunction in the Arabic language and test its efficacy, on one group comparing pre and post results
详细描述
The study was carried on 40 patients having articulation errors in cases of velopharyngeal valve dysfunction attending the unit of phoniatrics, otorhinolaryngology department, Alexandria University.
The patients met the specified inclusion and exclusion criteria. The patient underwent pre intervention evaluation and 3 parameters were chosen to compare efficacy of the program before and after therapy.
these include auditory perceptual assessment of speech, nasometer test and articulation test.
The patient underwent the remediation software program as individual sessions. then after finishing the therapy, the patients underwent post therapeutic evaluation with the 3 specified criteria
Statistical analysis Was carried out using SPSS statistics software version 23. Quantitative data were tested for normality using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. The variables which were normally distributed were described by Mean± SD. The variables which were not normally distributed, were described by median (Min-Max). Qualitative data were expressed by numbers and percentages. The results were calculated at a level of significance of 5% or less.

研究组 & 干预措施
the participating group in the intervention
patient complaining of seppch rerrors due t ovelopharyngeal insufficiency and underwent the intervention
干预措施: Arabic Articulatory Error Remediation software program (Behavioral)
结局指标
主要结局
change in naso meter values
时间窗: immediately after intervention
a device that measure nasalance score as a ratio expressed in percentage between nasal sound energy to nasal plus oral sound in patients pre and post intervention for quantitaive assesment of nasal air emission and nasal tone where the lower values mean beteer results
change in Auditory perceptual assessment of speech
时间窗: immediately after intervention
A qualitative scale of patient speech : 5 grade from 0( not present) to 4 (sever)
change in Arabic articulation test
时间窗: immediately after intervention
a qualitative test that define presence or absence of articulation errors
change in Arabic articulation test
时间窗: base line( pre -intervention)
a qualitative test that define presence or absence of articulation errors
change in naso meter values
时间窗: pre intervention
a device that measure nasalance score as a ratio expressed in percentage between nasal sound energy to nasal plus oral sound in patients pre and post intervention for quantitaive assesment of nasal air emission and nasal tone where the lower values mean beteer results
change in Auditory perceptual assessment of speech
时间窗: pre intervention
A qualitative scale of patient speech : 5 grade from 0( not present) to 4 (sever)
次要结局
- effect of the age factor on auditory perceptual assessment after intervention(immediately after intervention)
- effect of the surgical repair on the nasometer values after intervention(immediately after intervention)
- effect of the age factor on nasometer values after intervention(immediately after intervention)
