Prevalence of Oromotor Impairment in Children with Speech, Language and Communication Disorder (SLCD)

The study aimed to estimate the prevalence of oromotor impairment in children with speech, language and communication disorders (SLCD). A retrospective analysis of 503 children aged 1?12 years was conducted to assess vegetative skills and oromotor impairments using SPSS. Results revealed a 45% prevalence of oromotor impairment, with drooling being the most common in children with cerebral palsy. The study underscores the importance of targeted interventions for oromotor deficits in SLCD.
