Impacto da hipernasalidade da fala de indivíduos com fissura labiopalatina revisão de literatura

Abstract

Objective: To verify in the literature the perception of the speech therapist and the individual with CLP in relation to hypernasality in speech, understanding the difficulties encountered in favoring communication in the social sphere. Method: A survey was carried out on the VHL platform, using as inclusion criteria articles published in the last 10 years, Brazilian Portuguese and full texts with free access via link to the content. The PRISMA methodology was applied using the descriptors in double association using the Boolean and for the eligibility of the studies. Results: 199 studies were identified for the term cleft palate, 12 articles were included in the study, with the first publication in 2014 and the most recent one in 2020. Of the selected studies, 50% analyzed aspects of speech hypernasality evaluation, 25% addressed speech after corrective surgical processes, 8% alluded to nasalance in the presence of compensatory articulatory disorders, 8% analyzed the effectiveness of a vocal exercise and 8% discussed speech therapy in individuals with cleft lip and palate. Conclusion: The researched literature partially answered the research question. It brought information about the relationship of hypernasality in the speech of patients with CLP from the specialist's perspective, making it possible to understand the difficulties encountered by this population, leaving a gap in relation to the verification of the patient's/subject's perception in relation to the impact caused by speech hypernasality .
