This study investigated the progress of speech disorders in these early-treated patients and ascertained the relationship with treatments. Methods Speech disorders, including hypernasal resonance, articulation disorders, and speech intelligibility, were scored by speech-language pathologists using auditory perception in seven early-treated patients over a period of 6 years. Statistical analysis of the first and last evaluations of the patients was performed with the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Results A total of 29 speech samples were analyzed. All the patients suffered from hypernasality, articulation disorder, and impairment in speech intelligibility at the age of 3 years. The conditions were stable, and 2 patients developed normal or near normal speech during follow-up. Speech therapy and a high dose of rhGAA appeared to improve articulation in 6 of the 7 patients (86%, p?=?0.028) by decreasing the omission of consonants, which consequently increased speech intelligibility (p?=?0.041). Severity of hypernasality greatly reduced only in 2 patients (29%, p?=?0.131). Conclusion Speech disorders were common even in early and successfully treated patients with IOPD; however, aggressive speech therapy and high-dose rhGAA could improve their speech disorders. ? 2016 European Paediatric Neurology Society |
