“…There has been little work to date on how oral motor control develops in children, and much of this has been concentrated on the feeding behaviour of young infants or developmentally disabled children (a selection of recent work includes Fucile et al, 2005;Johnson & Harris, 2004;Mason et al, 2005;Rogers & Arvedson, 2005), with no investigation of any possible link to language development. Some studies purporting to examine oral motor control and language focus on diadochokinesis, the ability to repeat speech syllables as fast as possible, which seems to stray from the definition of nonverbal oral motor skill, and which also has questionable value in diagnosis of oral praxis difficulties (Yaruss & Logan, 2002).…”

-Motor control has long been associated with language skill, in deficits, both acquired and developmental, and in typical development. Most evidence comes from limb praxis however; the link between oral motor control and speech and language has been neglected, despite the fact that most language users talk with their mouths. Oral motor control is affected in a variety of developmental disorders, including Down syndrome. However, its development is poorly understood. We investigated oral motor control in three groups: adults with acquired aphasia, individuals with developmental dysphasia, and typically developing children. In individuals with speech and language difficulties, oral motor control was impaired. More complex movements and sets of movements were even harder for individuals with language impairments. In typically developing children (21-24 months), oral motor control was found to be related to language skills. In both studies, a closer relationship was found between language and complex oral movements than simple oral movements. This relationship remained when the effect of overall cognitive ability was removed. Children who were poor at oral movements were not good at language, although children who were good at oral movements could fall anywhere on the distribution of language abilities. Oral motor skills may be a necessary precursor for language skills.Keywords: oral motor control, language development, developmental language disorders, gesture Evidence for a link between motor control and language In examining the relationship between motor control and language development and disorders, there is a contrast between the large amount that is known about limb motor control and the small amount that is known about oral motor control. For example, it has long been known that the first stages of language development occur in parallel with the first stages of gesture development, and that children whose first gestures are earlier than average usually also say their first words earlier than average (Bates et al., 1979). Recent data also show that children who are late in the onset of both spontaneous communicative gesture and spoken language are more likely to remain delayed than those who start making communicative gestures at a typical age but whose speech is also delayed (Thal et al., 1997). There is also a strong association between limb motor control difficulties and language impairment (Hill, 2001), which appear to share a common genetic basis (Bishop, 2002). This imbalance in research exists despite the fact that the majority of language users speak, rather than sign. We now turn to work on the development of oral motor skills.

“…However, when the acute medical issues preventing feeding have resolved, some infants seem unable to make the transition to oral feeding and in extreme circumstances may remain dependent on enteral feeding for years, despite being apparently capable of eating (Mason, Harris, & Blissett, 2005). Children in these circumstances often appear to have no interest in food and may lose weight rapidly when their feeds are reduced (Wright, Smith, & Morrison, 2010).…”

“…Es deseable alcanzar la alimentación oral en el menor tiempo posible, dado que esta vía no solo es el modo fisiológico de alimentación, sino que también tiene un rol social que favorece una mejor respuesta a la rehabilitación y adaptación al medio (2). Varios estudios que muestran menor tiempo de rehabilitación son de naturaleza prospectiva, con intervenciones estandarizadas, intensivas y en pacientes con estrictos criterios de inclusión (13,20,22,28,33,34).…”

Introduction: The rehabilitation of the oral feeding (ROF) is complex in patients who have received prolonged enteral nutrition (EN). Objective: To describe this process in children with chronic respiratory diseases and nasoenteral tube (NET) or gastrostomy (GT). Patients and methods: Retrospective review of clinical records from children with EN at least for two months, admitted between 2005 and 2014 at the Josefi na Martínez Hospital. Results: 116 patients were included, with median age 10 months (range: 3 to 101), 56% male. Diagnosis: 34.5% Post-infectious chronic lung disease, 29,3% respiratory failure secondary to neuromuscular diseases, 19% bronchopulmonary dysplasia and 17,2% airway diseases, 82.8% of them had tracheostomy. Access: 89.7% gastrostomy and 10.3% NET, installed at median age of 6 months (0 a 74), due to low intake (11.3%) or swallow disorders (88.7%). From the total group, 36.2% (42/116) had ROF indication, whose EN length was 12.2 months (2 to 41). Fifty% (21/42) of them achieved total oral feeding (91% SNE and 35.4% GT, Chi2 p = 0.023), 14% partially and 36% failed. The time to achieve total oral feeding was 9.75 months (0.5 to 47), with no difference by age, sex, feeding route, EN duration or presence of neurological disease. Conclusion: In patients with chronic respiratory diseases and long-term enteral nutrition, ROF is possible but slow: 64% achieved it total or partially.
