Is telepractice effective in speech therapy for children with cleft lip and palate during the COVID-19 pandemic?
Arch Craniofac Surg

Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Faculty of Medicine, Khon Kaen University, Khon Kaen, Thailand.
Background: The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and the current shortage of speech-language pathologists in Thailand have limited access to speech services for children with cleft palate with or without cleft lip (CP± L). A combination of telepractice (TP) and face-to-face therapy could address the lack of continuous service and improve accessibility to speech therapy providers. This study aimed to compare the percentage of consonants correct (PCC) before and after speech therapy in children with CP± L.

Cleft lip and palate (CLP) significantly impact speech and language development in children. In remote areas, access to specialised services is often limited, necessitating innovative approaches for effective service delivery. This case report explores the potential of tele-supervised intervention provided by community-based rehabilitation workers (CBRWs) to enhance communication outcomes for children with CLP.

Objective: Sagittal synostosis is the most common type of craniosynostosis, resulting in deformity with distinctive morphological characteristics. These include occipital narrowing, parietal narrowing, anteriorly shifted vertex with parietal depression, and exaggerated frontal bossing. The traditional cephalic index affords limited reliability in quantifying initial severity and correction.

Article Synopsis
- Speech functions impacted by cleft palate involve complex sound production from various organs, and while traditional evaluations post-surgery are subjective, this study aims to provide objective assessments by measuring muscle contractions during speech.
- A healthy volunteer underwent dynamic MRI while pronouncing Hindi syllables, allowing researchers to create 3D models of the palate and pharynx, then analyze muscle contractions using a finite element model for different sounds.
- Results showed varying contraction levels for the palate and pharyngeal wall with different syllables, with the highest contractions for the syllable /k/ and the potential to use this data to quantify speech issues and evaluate surgical effectiveness in larger populations.
Purpose: This study evaluates the efficacy of intravitreal injections (IVI) of faricimab in patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) and retinal pigment epithelium detachment (RPED) resistant to other anti-VEGF agents.
Material And Methods: The study included 61 patients (61 eyes) with nAMD previously treated with aflibercept and/or brolucizumab IVIs. Three groups were formed: group 1 received aflibercept IVI (32 eyes), group 2 received brolucizumab IVI (14 eyes), and group 3 received aflibercept followed by brolucizumab IVI (15 eyes).
