Efficacy of Continuous Positive Airway Pressure for Treatment of Hypernasality

Abstract: Patients receiving 8 weeks of velopharyngeal CPAP resistance training showed a net overall reduction in speech hypernasality, although response was quite variable across patients and clinical centers. The net reduction in hypernasality is not readily explainable by random variability, subject maturation, placebo effect, or regression to the mean. CPAP appears capable of substantially reducing speech hypernasality for some subjects with cleft palate.

“…Also, CPAP treatment might be used following a pharyngeal flap or sphincter pharyngoplasty procedure if hypernasality persists. CPAP treatment has been shown to be effective for some patients with cleft palate exhibiting mild to moderate hypernasality (Kuehn et al, 2002). Although several other behavioral treatment approaches for treating VPI have been advocated, efficacy data to support these procedures are largely lacking (Tomes et al, 1997;Yorkston et al, 2001).…”

“…One of the attractive features of some NSOM tasks is the potential for quantitative measurement of selected variables for clinical assessment or for the use of prescribed levels of force or resistance in therapeutic applications. Examples of devices or systems of this kind are continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), which has been used to treat hypernasality (Cahill et al, 2004;Kuehn et al, 2002); the Iowa Oral Performance Instrument (http://www. iopimedical.com), a pressure transduction system used to measure strength and endurance of the hand, lips, or tongue (Adams, Mathisen, Baines, Lazarus, & Callister, 2013); the lip force meter LF100 (Hägg, Olgarsson, & Anniko, 2008); and SwallowStrong (http://swallowsolutions.com), a device consisting of a mouthpiece that incorporates sensors that measure pressure at four distinct locations on the tongue.…”

“…Other authors (11) published a study that had as a purpose to compare two equipments that measure tongue pressure -the MOST (Madison Oral Strengthening Therapeutic) and the IOPI (Iowa Oral Performance Instrument) that is already commercialized. The authors also tried to identify what would be the adequate tongue pressure when performing isometric exercises with both equipments.…”
