What is the difference in developmental delays between children with nonsyndromic clefts and children with syndromic clefts?

What is the effect of overprotection of the child?

Overprotection of the child may result in fewer demands for verbal communication. Verbal language may be ineffective if speech intelligibility is poor, and the child may rely on gestures instead. Signup and view all the answers

What are some risks associated with children with cleft palate only?

Children with cleft palate only carry an increased risk for syndromes, developmental or cognitive deficits, attention deficits, learning disabilities and language delay, other forms of neurological or motor dysfunction, sensorineural hearing loss, velopharyngeal insufficiency, frequent hospitalizations, and social isolation.

Study Notes

Developmental Aspects in Children with Clefts and Craniofacial Syndromes

Normal development depends on brain structure and function, environmental stimulation, hearing and vision, motivation, attention, and normal anatomy and physiology.
Intelligence and cognitive function rely on the structure and function of the brain and central nervous system.
Children with nonsyndromic clefts often have early deficits and delays, which usually disappear with treatment and age. Children with syndromic clefts usually have more serious, long-lasting deficits.
Surgical procedures and frequent hospitalizations can cause less stimulation, and children may have less interaction with peers or have more social isolation due to anomalies.
Cleft palate increases the risk of hearing loss, which can affect articulation, language, and resonance.
Some craniofacial syndromes affect the eyes and visual perception, which are crucial for speech development and associating words with objects, verbs, adjectives, etc.
Overprotection of the child may result in fewer demands for verbal communication. Verbal language may be ineffective if speech intelligibility is poor, and the child may rely on gestures instead.
Craniofacial syndromes often include ADHD and language delay, which decrease perception and processing of language.
Normal anatomy and physiology of the entire vocal tract and subsystems of speech are essential for speech development.
Children with cleft lip with and without cleft palate may have early deficits in prelanguage and early skills, lower scores on verbal performance than nonverbal performance on standardized tests, and early expressive language difficulties due to production errors.
Children with cleft palate only carry an increased risk for syndromes, developmental or cognitive deficits, attention deficits, learning disabilities and language delay, other forms of neurological or motor dysfunction, sensorineural hearing loss, velopharyngeal insufficiency, frequent hospitalizations, and social isolation.
Structural problems, neurological problems, and hearing loss may cause problems in speech sound development, and compensatory productions may develop. The longer the structure is abnormal, the harder it is to correct the child's speech.
It is important to monitor the child's speech and language development throughout the early years to address any developmental delays.
