About this study

Individuals with rare genetic conditions may experience a delay or loss of developmental skills. Many have limited verbal speech. The aim of this clinical trial is to examine how well a speech-generating device supports the communication skills of participants with a rare genetic condition. The speech-generating device is a communication program loaded onto an iPad. This is a crossover trial, meaning that each participant will receive both the treatment (device) and a control (usual care; no device) phase. The order in which each participant receives the device versus the usual care (no device) will depend on which group the participant is assigned to. The changes in communication in each phase will then be compared. During the trial, participants can expect to complete a series of assessments and attend a total of 2 x 1-hour therapy session per week for 6 weeks.
