“…Sin embargo, quienes se dedican a la práctica clínica continúan utilizando EMONV en sus terapias (Kamhi, 2008). No se ha encontrado información que justifique la diferencia entre estos dos grupos (Vashdi et al, 2020). Un estudio reciente encontró que a los/las FA se les dificultaba aplicar los hallazgos de la investigación a su práctica clínica, debido al tiempo limitado y otras restricciones (Fulcher-Rood et al, 2020).…”

“…L. Lof y Watson, 2008;Maas, 2017;Muttiah et al, 2011), los EMONV siguen siendo populares en la práctica clínica de diferentes FA. No obstante, vale la pena mencionar que, aunque la mayoría de los estudios recomiendan enfáticamente no utilizar EMONV para trabajar con niños/as con TSH, un estudio más reciente (Vashdi et al, 2020) encontró una relación entre EMONV y producción de sonidos del habla que parece oponerse a las conclusiones del resto de la literatura.…”

“…Un aspecto importante a considerar es la dificultad que existe para alcanzar unanimidad respecto al tipo de ejercicios que pueden ser categorizados como EMONV, ya que el uso de diferentes tipos de ejercicios en diferentes estudios ha contribuido a una discrepancia en los resultados (Vashdi et al, 2020). Lof (2008) utiliza el término EMONV para referirse a toda técnica terapéutica que no requiere producir habla pero que es utilizada para influir en el habla.…”

Previous studies, conducted in different countries (e.g. Australia, Canada, India, Republic of Ireland, USA, UK), have shown that speech-language pathologists (SLPs) use nonspeech oral motor exercises (NSOMEs) to treat speech sound disorders (SSDs), bringing attention to the substantial debate regarding the clinical effectiveness of NSOMEs. The aim of the present study was to investigate and characterize the use of NSOMEs by Portuguese SLPs in the intervention of SSDs, and to analyze the evidence that supports it. To do so, SLPs who provide therapy to children with SSDs were invited to complete an online questionnaire, based on a previous survey conducted in India by Thomas and Kaipa (2015). A total of 184 participants responded to the survey; 93.5% reported knowing about NSOMEs, 78.5% used NSOMEs in their intervention for SSDs, and 80.2% considered them effective in treating SSDs (89% indicated that their knowledge about NSOMEs was acquired through graduate and post-graduate courses; 98.5% reported that they used NSOMEs to improve the motor function of the articulators). This study offers an overview of Portuguese speech-language pathologists’ reported use of NSOMEs as part of the intervention of speech sound disorders in children. Many of the participants in this study reported that they did use NSOMEs in SSD treatments, regardless of the lack of evidence to support their use in this context. Furthermore, the results show that the percentage of SLPs in Portugal using NSOMEs is similar to those found in the USA, UK, Canada, and India, but different from those in Australia and Ireland.

Examining the Prevalence of Intervention Approaches Internationally: The Use of Nonspeech Oral Motor Exercises in Guatemala

et al. 2022

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Purpose: Little is known about the use of nonspeech oral motor exercises (NSOMEs) to treat Speech Sound Disorders (SSDs) in low- and middle-income countries, such as Guatemala, where the field of speech-language pathology is less well established. The purpose of this study is to examine clinical practices for SSDs in Guatemala. The authors then compare these findings with previous literature on the use of NSOMEs in countries with developed fields of speech-language pathology. Method: Nonmembers and members of the professional association for speech providers, Asociación de Terapistas del Lenguaje de Guatemala (SomosTLgt; n = 65), completed an online survey regarding the use of NSOMEs. Results: Although approximately half of the clinicians in Guatemala reported using NSOMEs in therapy, the time spent in therapy sessions using these exercises was limited to 25% of the time. Very few clinicians (19.8%) reported to use NSOMEs almost always or 50%–75% of the time. NSOMEs were not reportedly used by 33.8% of the clinicians when treating SSDs. A significant positive correlation was found between years of experience and use of NSOME in clinical practice. Nearly all respondents specified learning about NSOMEs at university. Conclusions: Contrary to previous studies from high-income countries that indicate that NSOMEs are commonly used by speech-language pathologists when targeting SSDs, the use of NSOMEs across speech therapists from Guatemala in this current investigation is less. Future studies should explore the rationale behind the use of NSOME across different countries.

The purpose of the present study is to analyze comparatively the effects of some therapeutic interventions to improve the symptoms of apraxia of speech in children (CAS). In this sense, three different therapeutic programs were implemented, each lasting 12 months, in three groups of children. Two measurements were made, before and after the children's participation in the programs. P1 included therapy based on augmentative and alternative communication, P2 included therapy based on the classic speech therapy model and therapeutic speech massage, P3 included therapy based on verbal motor learning, VML. 106 children diagnosed with CAS participated in the study, aged between 5 and 7 years, M = 5.75, SD = .75, of which 81 boys (76%) and 25 girls (24%), were randomly divided into three groups. CAS severity was measured using a grid from the Dynamic Assessment of Motor Speech Skills, measuring articulatory accuracy, vowel scoring, and prosody. Visuomotor accuracy, visuospatial processing, phonemic hearing, narrative memory, and attention were measured with a series of tests from the PEDb and PEDa packages (Cognitrom, 2012). Although all three therapeutic programs registered significant effects on the improvement of CAS symptomatology, the most notable effects were obtained by the VML method. The practical implications of the study are discussed, as well as future research directions.
