Condition: Velopharyngeal Insufficiency · Velopharyngeal Incompetence Due to Cleft Palate · Inadequate Velopharyngeal Closure · Sponsor: Noel Jabbour
When the soft palate does not move enough because of a cleft palate or for unknown reasons, this can lead to a speech difference called velopharyngeal insufficiency. The purpose of this research study is to test if soft palate exercises using a hand help breathing device will help improve the ability of the soft palate to close the area between the throat and nose and help improve speech.
