Common Facts about Clefting

! Most common birth defect (CDC, 2006)

! Who has a cleft? "  Native American/India 1:250 "  Utah 1:500 "  Asian 1:500 "  Caucasian 1:750 "  African American 1:900/3000 "  CL & P more common in boys "  CP more common in girls

For Children with CP

! Muscles do not attach normally ! Musculus uvulae may be smaller/absent ! Tensor veli palatini inserted in bony

portion of the cleft

Issues Related to Surgical Management

10/23/15

Management

! Surgical -  Lip surgery -  Primary palatal repair

#  1-stage surgery (hard and soft palate) #  2-stage surgery (veloplasty or delayed palate

repair)

-  Issues related to timing -  Secondary surgical management for speech

(Peterson-Falzone, Hardin-Jones, & Karnell, 2010) 10/23/15

Secondary Surgical Management

!  Secondary surgery to improve speech - 4 – 6 years of age - 3 types

1) Technique to lengthen repaired palate - Furlow double-reversing Z-plasty

2) Pharyngeal flap 3) Sphincter pharyngoplasty

10/23/15

Secondary Surgery: Pharyngeal Flap

Impact of Clefting on Communication: Presurgery

10/23/15

Impact of Clefting on Communication: Presurgery

•  Cou.Inability to impound intraoral air pressure

“Avoids” pressure consonants

•  .No surface against which to place the tongue

“Avoids” alveolar sounds

•  .Less practice with with these sounds

Delayed speech,

Reduced intelligibility,

CAs

Impact of Clefting on Communication: Presurgery

Poor Eustachian tube functioning

Conductive hearing loss

Speech and language delays?

10/23/15

Impact of Clefting on Early Speech: What Does the Research Say?

10/23/15

Characteristics - Presurgery

! Vocalize as frequently ! Fewer canonical syllables/less complex ! Delayed in onset of canonical babbling ! Smaller consonant inventories

(Chapman et al., 2001; Scherer et al., 1999; 2008)

10/23/15

10/23/15

9

Characteristics - Presurgery

! Composition of babbling is different -  Produce fewer stops, glides, velars

-  Prefer glottal place ([h] common)

-  Trends for more nasals but fewer alveolars and palatals

(Chapman, 1991; Chapman et al., 2001; Olson, 1965; Scherer et al., 2008)

10/23/15

Characteristics - Presurgery

!  Comprehension within normal range (Long & Dalston, 1983; Scherer et al., 2008)

!  Produced a similar number of nonverbal communicative attempts overall

(Long & Dalston (1982a;1982b)

Impact of Clefting on Communication: Postsurgery

10/23/15

What to Expect Postsurgery

! Takes about 6 weeks to see a normal amount of vocalization

! Stop consonants should start to emerge ! Comprehension should continue to be

within normal limits ! Normal resonance

(Chapman, Hardin-Jones, & Scherer, 2013) 10/23/15

Speech Characteristics: Postsurgery

! Variability in speech development post-surgery - Many children with cleft palate have normal speech

after palate repair - Approximately 68% need S/L intervention - 18-25% employ CAs - 25-37% additional surgery for speech - Group studies suggest delays in speech into

adolescents and beyond

10/23/15

Velopharyngeal Inadequacy (VPI) Velopharyngeal Dysfunction (VPD)

VP Insufficiency

VP Incompetence

VP Mislearning

Velopharyngeal Dysfunction

(Trost-Cardamone, 1989) 10/23/15

Speech Characteristics: Postsurgery

Resonance Disorders 1.  Hypernasality - too much nasal resonance

during production of vowels and voiced consonants

2.  Hyponasality - too little nasal resonance during production of vowels and nasals

3.  Mixed/Cul-de-sac resonance

10/23/15

10/23/15

14

Speech Characteristics: Postsurgery

Speech Disorders 1.  Nasal emission – escape of air during

production of pressure consonants -  Audible -  Inaudible

2.  Weak pressure consonants – loss of air during production of pressure consonants

3.  Nasal substitutions - nasal consonants are substituted for oral consonants -  May be phonological or due to VPD

4. 

10/23/15

Speech Characteristics: Postsurgery

4.  Compensatory productions - Place of articulation is moved posteriorly - Not sure why some children produce them - Attempts or meet pressure requirements for

speech - Why are they such a problem??

5.  Voice Disorders ____________________________________

6. Distorted sibilants

10/23/15

Compensatory Productions

!  Why are CAs such a problem? - Sounds do not appear in most languages - Negatively impacts intelligibility

- Difficult to eradicate in therapy - When child produces CAs cannot evaluate VP

function - Rule governed—becomes part of child’s

phonological system

10/23/15

10/23/15

15

Compensatory Articulations: Glottal Stop [�]

!  Substitution for stops, less frequently fricatives and affricates

!  Can occur as a co-articulation

!  Most common �compensatory� error

(Trost, 1981; Peterson-Falzone et al., 2006)

10/23/15

Compensatory Articulations: Pharyngeal Fricative/Stop/Affricate

!  Linguapharyngeal articulation - Pharyngeal fricative:

� �

- Pharyngeal stop:

- Pharyngeal affricate:

(Trost, 1981; Peterson-Falzone et al., 2006) 10/23/15

Compensatory Articulations: Nasal Fricative

!  Produced as air passes through the nasal cavity at the same time that closure occurs at the bilabial, alveolar or velar place of production

!  Co-artic with any pressure consonant

(Trost, 1981; Peterson-Falzone et al., 2006) 10/23/15

10/23/15

16

Compensatory articulations: Mid-dorsum Palatal Stop [c] & [�]

!  Mid-dorsum part of tongue contacts mid-palate

!  Place of articulation similar to /j/

!  Can be related to a fistula

(Trost, 1981; Peterson-Falzone et al., 2006) 10/23/15

Backing

!  Child moves the place of articulation farther back within the oral cavity - Alveolar stop $ velar stop - Alveolar fricative $ velar fricative

10/23/15

Impact of Clefting on Language: Postsurgery

10/23/15

10/23/15

17

Language Characteristics: Postsurgery

Delayed onset and acquisition of words (Broen et al., 1998; Hardin-Jones & Chapman, in press; Scherer et al., 1999)

Score lower (but within normal limits) on tests of language (see Chapman, 2009; Chapman, et al., 2015; Klinto et al., 2014)

Lower scores for MLU-M, but not grammatical accuracy (Chapman, et al.,2015)

Passive Communication style (Chapman et al.,1998; Frederickson et al., 2006)

Relationship between speech delays and reading delays (Chapman, 2011) 10/23/15

(Chapman, Hardin-Jones, & Scherer, 2013) 10/23/15

Important to Consider

! RE: Resonance/nasal emission - Cannot determine adequacy of the VP

mechanism immediately after surgery - Assessment is ongoing - Must separate articulation from resonance

10/23/15

Important to Consider

1. Cannot blame everything on the cleft

2. Phonology impacted by clefting

(Chapman, Hardin-Jones, & Scherer, 2013) 10/23/15

10/23/15

27

Common Misconceptions

Nasal substitutions

are indicators of VPI

Or related to phonological

learning

(Chapman, Hardin-Jones, & Scherer, 2013) 10/23/15

Common Misconceptions

Glottal stops present due to

VPI

Or due to phonological

learning

(Chapman, Hardin-Jones, & Scherer, 2013) 10/23/15

Implications

Difficult to evaluate

mechanism with NS and GSs

Therapy to eliminate these

before evaluation of VP function

(Chapman, Hardin-Jones, & Scherer, 2013) 10/23/15

10/23/15

28

Decisions?

! When to refer to Cleft Palate-Craniofacial Team?

! When to refer for intervention?

10/23/15

Things to Consider

1. Child’s age/maturity

2. Speech skills

Severe speech problem?

Nasal substitutions?

Glottal stops?

3. Palatal fistula

10/23/15

Some Debate

Intervention is a waste of time

Eliminate all nonobligatory

speech errors prior to surgery

Run the risk of recommending

surgery for a child who does not really

need it! 10/23/15

10/23/15

29

When VPI is suspected

!  Others things to consider when making a referral:

− Persistent glottal/pharyngeal articulations − Palatal fistula − Ability to cooperate − Sound inventory

10/23/15

What Improves with Surgery?

!  Hypernasality !  Weak pressure

consonants !  Nasal emission/

turbulence*

!  Compensatory articulations

!  Delayed speech !  Nasal substitutions !  Oral distortion of

fricatives/affricates

Should Improve Does Not Improve

10/23/15

!!!Prelinguistic/Presurgery Treatment

!  When is intervention appropriate?

10/23/15

Principles of Intervention

!  Naturalistic approach !  Family centered !  Culturally/linguistically appropriate !  Guided by the toddler’s communication skills,

not condition of clefting !  Evidence based

(Chapman, Hardin-Jones, & Scherer, 2013) 10/23/15

Prelinguistic Treatment

Goal 1 !  Parent education − Review of developmental milestones −  Impact of cleft on speech/language development

and hearing

!  Parents as intervention agents −  Parent “training” −  Monitor what parents are doing

(Chapman, Hardin-Jones, & Scherer, 2013) 10/23/15

10/23/15

31

Prelinguistic Treatment

Goal 2 !  Increase frequency and diversity of

vocalizations −  Imitate baby’s vocalization − Model new sound combinations

"  Sounds/syllables with nasals, glides, liquids, etc. (e.g., wawa, mama, nana, lala).

"  Some babies produce stops—okay to model " Assume baby is attempting to communicate

(Chapman, Hardin-Jones, & Scherer, 2013) 10/23/15

Prelinguistic Treatment

Goal 3 !  Increase communicative opportunities − Environmental arrangement − Communicative temptations − Be responsive

(Chapman, Hardin-Jones, & Scherer, 2013)

10/23/15

Parent Training Protocols

!  Important part of parent education/training program -  Avoid reinforcing growls/glottal stops

#  Ignore and model sounds produced within oral cavity

- “hhhhhh” while opening and closing mouth - Occlude nares

(Chapman, Hardin-Jones, & Scherer, 2013)

10/23/15

10/23/15

32

Presurgery Treatment

!  How to choose words presurgery -  Low pressure -  Front sounds -  Avoid words that begin with vowels

!  Stimulate sounds as you would with any baby !  Reinforce sound production

(Chapman, Hardin-Jones, & Scherer, 2013)

10/23/15

First Words

Early Language Goals/Post Surgery

!  Don’t wait too long! −  Red flags " No evidence of oral stops 3 months post palatal

surgery "  Persistence of nasal/glottal substitutions "  Lack of growth in phonetic inventory "  Language delay

(Chapman, Hardin-Jones, & Scherer, 2013)

Eliminating Glottal Stops !  Use /h/ to “break up” glottal pattern

–  Produce whispered /h/ + vowel − Prolong /h/ while producing /p/ or /t/ − Overaspirate until production correct − Gradually introduce voicing

(Peterson-Falzone et al, 2006) 10/23/15

10/23/15

37

Intervention Considerations

!  May want to avoid words with other nasals !  Choose a limited set of words !  Words should be functional !  Practice is important !  Begin at isolation !  Practice, practice, practice !  May be best to start with voiceless sounds if

glottal stops are present (Baylis & Chapman, 2014)

10/23/15

Profile 4

!  Refer for objective assessment when hypernasality is present

!  Speech therapy cannot change hypernasality - Child has oral sounds/pressure consonants - Child can cooperate for exam

Intervention Strategies

!  Speech sound intervention − Traditional articulation approaches − Phonological approaches

"  Core Vocabulary (Dodd & Bradford, 2000) "  Contrast approaches (Weiner, 1981; Gierut,

1989; Williams, 2000) "  Cycles approach (Hodson & Paden, 1983)

−  Combination of the two www.latrobe,edu.au/hsc/projects/preschoolspeechlanguage/articphonol.html

(Williams, McLeod, McCauley, 2010) 10/23/15

Intervention Strategies

!  “Why traditional articulation therapy is preferred.” (Peterson-Falzone et al., 2006)

10/23/15

Intervention Strategies

!  Familiarize child with oral structures −  May use hand-drawn pictures to show place of

articulation for specific sounds

(Peterson-Falzone et al., 2006)

10/23/15

10/23/15

39

Intervention Strategies

! After determining sound(s) to work on − Teach correct placement for the sound − May need to “shape” the correct sound − Teach the orthographic symbol for the sound − Teach sound contrasts (start with place) − May need to re-name the sound − Discrimination of error and target − Don’t worry about hypernasality

(Peterson-Falzone, Trost-Cardamone, Karnell, & Hardin-Jones, 2006)

10/23/15

Intervention Strategies

!  Discrimination training !  Phonetic placement techniques !  Place map for sounds !  Target selection !  Stabilize the sound !  Contrast training !  Self-monitoring

(Peterson-Falzone et al., 2006) 10/23/15

Contrast Treatments

!  Minimal pairs—FCD—go vs. goat !  Maximal oppositions—vary along dimensions

of voice, place, manner -  [m] voiced, bilabial, sonorants vs. [k] voiceless, velar,

obstruents

!  Multiple oppositions—trains several sounds at the same time

Eliminating Glottal Stops

•  Place map •  Auditory and visual discrimination •  Use /h/ to break up glottal pattern

–  Whispered h+vowel •  Sustain /h/ as lips close/open for voiceless labial/lingual stop •  Encourage overaspiration of voiceless stop until voiceless

plosive-vowel syllables are correctly produced •  Gradually introduce voicing for voiced stop •  May need to begin with fricatives, VC, VCV •  Self monitoring

(Peterson-Falzone et al, 2006) 10/23/15

Eliminating Pharyngeal Fricatives

!  Place map !  Discrimination !  ʃ then S - VC with high front & mid-central vowels - Then CV, CVC

!  Self monitoring

(Peterson-Falzone et al, 2006)

10/23/15

10/23/15

41

Eliminating Pharyngeal Stops

!  Place map—moving forward !  Discrimination (pharyngeal muscle activity) !  VC—ik, ek, -> CV, monosyllabes, etc !  Maybe fricative first at same place !  Voicing not important !  Self monitoring

(Peterson-Falzone et al, 2006)

10/23/15

Treating Backed Oral Productions

!  Consonants are backed but within oral cavity !  Identify and contrast place of production

(visually and auditorily) !  Use sounds already produced at same place to

elicit production

(Peterson-Falzone et al, 2006)

10/23/15

Nonspeech Oral Motor Treatment

!  NO evidence to support the use of NSOMT for improving speech or VP function in children with cleft palate

(or in any children for that matter!)

Intervention Studies

!  Phoneme specific NE can be eliminated (Hall and Tomblin, 1975)

!  Articulation can improve even with VPI (Chisum et al., 1969; Van Demark, 1974; Van Demark and Hardin, 1986; Pamplona et al., 2005)

!  Short-term, intensive therapy better than shorter periods over a longer time (Albery and Enderby, 1984; Van Demark and Hardin, 1986; Pamplona et al., 2005)

!  Parent involvement resulted in better gains in intervention (Pamplona et al., 1996, 2000)

!  Phonology intervention more effective than articulation therapy (Pamplona et al., 1999)
