Cleft lip and/or palate (CLP) are the most common oro-facial congenital anomalies. These anomalies have an impact on feeding, speech and speech development, facial aesthetics & oral health, all of which are factors that heavily impact the quality of life of CLP patients. CLP also has an effect on the families' social and psychological health. Qualitative research helps understand the perspectives of the participants by exploring the psycho-social aspects of care. Phenomenological approach is a qualitative research method that aims to borrow participants' lived experiences to better understand a specific phenomenon. Currently, there is no clear understanding of the fears, anxieties, and challenges faced by parents of CLP patients in Egypt.
A randomized clinical trial to compare the effectiveness of newly designed active type of presurgical orthopedic appliances on maxillary arch dimensions in infants with bilateral cleft lip and palate.
The cleft patients received alveolar bone graft(ABG) for alveolar defect. Body mass index (BMI) was measured for each patients when receiving ABG. Bone mineral density was measured by Cone-Beam CT at two time-points: post-ABG six months, and post-ABG two years. The study was to analyze the correlation between BMI and post-operative bone mineral density.
The patients with unilateral and bilateral cleft lip and palate received alveolar bone graft surgery. Two time points of cone beam CT were taken for all the patients: post-operative 6 months, and post-operative 2 years. All the CT images were reviewed for the analysis of grafted bone density.
The purpose of this study is to compare types of and risk factors for cleft lip and palate in a Guatemalan population to a United States population.
The main objective of this study is to provide data about treatment protocols for CLP patients in Egypt, and compare it to the management protocol suggested by the ACPA.
This is a prospective observational cohort study of consecutive patients with cleft lip and palate deformity undergoing cleft repair at the Institute of Mother and Child in Warsaw. Cleft morphology will be captured with photo and intraoral camera before routine surgery at around 8 months. Furthermore, wound healing at 3 months postoperative will be assessed.
This single-site, experimental, pilot study in infants identified from 0 - 3 months of age who present to the Cleft and Craniofacial Clinic with a cleft lip and/or palate will compare weight outcomes of infants who used the Weigh Easy system to monitor weight and historical infants whose weights were monitored without the Weigh Easy system.
This randomized controlled trial is designed to compare between quadlelix appliance vs hyrax expander regrading the their effectiveness in maxillary expansion in patients with cleft.
