[Articulation and nasalization in palatal cleft].
The author studied 189 patients after operations for cleft palate who had not had earlier logopedic rehabilitation. The range of disturbances was presented as a sum of abnormal articulations against a background of functional disturbances of various degree. Preponderance of articulation disturbances was noted--84.7% in relation to nasalization--75.1%. Patients with moderate and high-grade nasalization achieved evidently worse results of speech rehabilitation and had a much smaller possibility of autocorrection in relation to those with--out impairing nasalization. Moreover, articulation changes were found in patients without nasalization and with low-grade nasalization, which suggests persistence of habits, and the need for early exercises to prevent the formation of harmful compensations.
