Early Speech

The concept of early speech therapy by a team of therapists of different specializations, including a speech and language pathologist, assumes a holistic approach to an infant’s development. Children with Down syndrome require the help of a speech and language pathologist since the first day of their lives. The article describes activating the child’s speech by incorporating games into the therapy.

Therapy Intervention

The purpose of our research is to identify the effective tools for early Speech therapy intervention in working with children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) in order to provide their speech forming and development by using confinable methods. Besides, the purpose includes the thesis about high effectivity of systematic complex approach in case of work with ASD. Current research is based on theoretical materials from professional literature and on 14 years of own personal speech therapy professional experience. It is concluded that methods used in the speech therapy work with ASD children are effective in application, but as a result of the individual approach of the child's speech and communication, their combination at the appropriate stage of development provides a higher result. According to the World Health Organization’s (WHO) report (April 2017), every 160th child in the world has ASD. According to our ten-year (2007-2017) research in Armenia, there was a fivefold increase in the number of children diagnosed with ASD (Kharatyan & Hovyan, 2019). This sharp increase makes the interpretation of effective approaches to speech therapy intervention in children with ASD even more important. We emphasize the development of established methods and means of early speech intervention in the work with ASD, the development of a systemic approach and the introduction of conditions that will facilitate their early speech therapy intervention.

ABSTRACT A 25 years old woman with Down syndrome (DS) presented at 9 weeks gestational age. She belonged to a very supportive family. She was married to a person with normal karyotype and conceived within 3 months of marriage. Her antenatal period was uneventful, except for mild IUGR and oligohydroamnios 32 weeks onwards. At 38 weeks, she underwent induction of labor. She tolerated labor pains well but because of failure to progress, cesarean section was performed. She delivered a 2 kg male baby, who was phenotypically and genotypically normal. Screening for trisomy 21 should be offered to all women as part of routine antenatal care. This offer should include detailed counseling about the implications and limitations of the test used in the screening program. The available second trimester screening tests are the double, triple and quadruple tests. Children with Down syndrome may benefit from speech therapy, physical therapy and occupational therapy. They may receive special education and assistance in school. Full potential of Down patients can be utilized only with complete support of family and society.

The authors of the article present two techniques supporting the development of articulation in children with Down syndrome: Articulation Gestures and Phoneme Manual Facilitation. Using their own clinical experience and referring to the latest neurobiological knowledge and subject literature, they justify the importance and, in some cases, the need to apply these techniques in speech therapy of children with trisomy 21. The text also presents three individual cases of children with Down syndrome of different ages who have been diagnosed with profound speech delay.

Health And Development

Parents of 221 school-aged children with Down syndrome completed a questionnaire about their experiences with service-providers from the time of diagnosis of their child’s disability. These experiences were compared with those of 782 parents of children with moderate or severe intellectual disability, with disabilities other than Down syndrome. Down syndrome was the earliest diagnosed disability, the average age of suspicion being two weeks and of diagnosis four weeks. Two-thirds of the children with Down syndrome had at least one additional disability, some having up to four additional disabilities. Some differences were apparent between older and younger children in the sample. Parents of younger children with Down syndrome were less likely to report inaccurate predictions about their child’s health and development. Children with Down syndrome were significantly more likely than children with other disabilities to be receiving speech therapy and significantly less likely to be receiving occupational therapy or physiotherapy. Parents of younger children with Down syndrome were more likely than parents of older children with Down syndrome or of children with other disabilities to regard an integrated school placement as ideal for their child, and their children were more likely to be in integrated settings.

AbstractObjective:Phenotypical Down syndrome includes pharyngeal and maxillary hypoplasia and, frequently, constricted maxillary arch with nasal obstruction.Study design:This clinical trial assessed the effects of rapid maxillary expansion on ENT disorders in 24 children with Down syndrome randomly allocated to receive either rapid maxillary expansion or not. Each group received ENT and speech therapy assessments before expansion and after the device had been removed.Results:In the rapid maxillary expansion group, the yearly ENT infection rate was reduced when assessed after device removal (p < 0.01). The parents of rapid maxillary expansion children reported a reduction in respiratory obstruction symptoms. Audiological assessment revealed improvements in the rapid maxillary expansion group (p < 0.01). Cephalometry showed increased maxillary width in the rapid maxillary expansion group.Conclusions:Rapid maxillary expansion resulted in a reduction in hearing loss, yearly rate of ENT infections and parentally assessed symptoms of upper airway obstruction, compared with no treatment. These findings are probably related to expanded oronasal space, due to rapid maxillary expansion.
