Introduction Myofunctional orofacial examination (MOE) is an important tool for the assessment of the stomatognathic system and orofacial functions, and the early diagnosis of orofacial myofunctional disorders. Therefore, the purpose of the study is to scan the literature and determine the most preferred test for myofunctional orofacial examination. Materials and Methods A literature review was conducted to collect information. Pubmed and ScienceDirect database was explored by using keywords gained by MeSH (Medical Subject Headings). Results Fifty-six studies were retrived from the search and all of the studies were screened and evaluated regarding the subject, aim, conclusions and the orofacial myofunctional examination test they used. It has been observed that traditional evaluation and inspection methods have been replaced by newer and methodological approaches in recent years. Conclusions Although the few tests used differ, 'Orofacial Examination Test With Scores’ (OMES) was found to be the most preferred myofunctional orofacial evaluation method from ENT to cardiology.

“…The development of the Virtual Tool for Speech Assessment was based on the analysis of several speech assessment tools (Computer Articulation Instrument 14 ; INFONO 15 and an adaptation of the Dynamic Evaluation of Motor Speech Skills (DEMSS) for BP 16 ). To select the test items, the following linguistic criteria was considered: phonemes assessed in each position of the syllable and the word, covering all the phonemes of BP and all the basic syllable structures of BP.…”

Purpose: to carry out the semantic analysis of a list of words that will compose a virtual tool for speech assessment for children and adolescents. Methods: twenty-three participants, aged between 2 years old and 17 years and 11 months old, from the central region of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, assigned the concept of 91 words. Data analysis was performed quantitatively, considering the concept of each word as correct or incorrect. Content Validity Ratio (RVC) and Gwet’s first-order agreement coefficient (AC1) statistical calculation were calculated. Results: from the word list analyzed, 42 stimuli presented CVR = 1; 30 words obtained CVR = 0.9; 11 with CVR = 0.8; six with CVR = 0.7; two had CVR = 0.4. Gwet's AC1 statistical calculation resulted in AC1 = 0.92 [CI = 0.90 - 0.94] for semantic analysis. Conclusion: the list consisted of 91 semantically validated words that can be used to assess the speech production of children and adolescents.

“…The existing understanding of CAS is mainly based on English and Dutch speakers, but the literature about CAS in children who speak other languages is growing. For example, the genetic and neural bases of CAS have been investigated in Chinese [29] and Italian [30]; clinical features or speech performance have been explored in Arabic [31], Cantonese [32,33], Mandarin [34], and French [35]; assessment tests or diagnostic checklists have been developed for Arabic [36], Brazilian Portuguese [37], Danish [38], and Swedish speakers with CAS [39]; and the treatment efficacy of different approaches has been examined in speakers of Brazilian Portuguese [40,41], Cantonese [42], German [43], Italian [44], Korean [45], Mandarin [46], Spanish [47], and Turkish [48].…”

Background A survey study on clinical practice not only provides insight into the implementation of knowledge, but also informs future investigations. There is a limited understanding of childhood apraxia of speech (CAS) in Cantonese speakers. This study examined the clinical practice of CAS in Hong Kong and discussed future directions of research for better evidence-based practice. Methods Qualified Hong Kong pediatric speech-language pathologists (SLPs) completed the online questionnaire, which had a total of 48 questions regarding their knowledge of and experience with CAS in Cantonese speakers, including assessment, diagnosis, and treatment. Results Seventy-seven responses were received from Hong Kong SLPs. Most of the SLPs (83.2%) rated their understanding of CAS as either “a little” or “fair”. About half (53.2%) of the respondents had worked with children with CAS. No standardized assessment or objective/quantitative measures were used clinically. Instead, seven assessment tasks, including imitation of polysyllabic words and speech and language samples were used commonly. Perceptual judgment of clinical features is still the most popular approach for diagnosis, with a variety of lists in use. Of concern was that, in addition to using some evidence-based approaches, local SLPs treated CAS using approaches that have limited evidence, in the context of less treatment frequency, targeting both speech and language skills within the same session, and with only partial implementation of the approaches. Conclusions The results suggest that the understanding of CAS among local SLPs requires attention. One reason for this is that evidence regarding the assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of Cantonese speakers with CAS is still limited. Future investigations are needed.
