NCT ID: NCT06416306 Not yet recruiting - Clinical trials for Speech Sound Disorder

Treatment Targets in Spanish and English Bilingual Speech Intervention

Start date: May 8, 2024
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn which speech treatment targets result in the greatest amount of speech learning in Spanish-English bilingual children with speech sound disorders. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does linguistic complexity of the treatment target increase the amount of generalized learning within the treated language? - Does linguistic complexity of the treatment target increase the amount of generalized speech across languages? Researchers will compare intervention effects across treatment provided in English and Spanish to see if the effect differs according to the language of intervention. Participants will: - Attend between 12 and 18 45-minute speech intervention sessions in Spanish or English for up to 6 weeks - Attend assessment visits before and after intervention - Attend follow-up assessment visits 1 month and 2 months after intervention

NCT ID: NCT06366256 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Speech Sound Disorder

Simplified Ultrasound Feedback for Speech Remediation

SUFSR
Start date: October 24, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Recent research in motor control shows that people learn new movements best when they receive feedback external to the body. Traditional ultrasound speech therapy works well for many children, but involves teaching children to focus on their internal tongue movements. The goal of the study is to test whether ultrasound biofeedback delivered without showing children a display of their tongue movements will be effective as a treatment for residual speech sound disorders in children. We focus on children who have trouble producing the sound "r" as in "rabbit". The first aim is to develop a fast reliable system to track movements of different parts of the tongue using ultrasound and to identify which combinations of movements will produce a good "r" and which do not. The second aim is to develop a motivational game in which children receive feedback on the success of their tongue movements by what happens to an animated character on a screen. This developed version of ultrasound feedback therapy will be compared to the traditional version of ultrasound feedback therapy to determine how the two approaches can best be utilized in the clinic.

NCT ID: NCT06075303 Completed - Clinical trials for Speech Sound Disorder

Dynamic Assessment of Phonological Disorders

Start date: October 4, 2011
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about (1) how speech skills can be measured and how various tests give speech therapists different types of information for children with speech sound disorder, and (2) whether changes occur in the amount of help children need when they work on easier sounds or harder sounds during treatment. The main questions this study aims to answer are: (1) what does one type of test (dynamic assessment) tell us about speech skills compared to another type of test (static assessment), and (2) does practice of easier or harder sounds show differences in progress. Participants will complete 16 sessions of speech treatment called "modified cycles treatment", and will complete several speech and language tests before, during, and after treatment by pointing to pictures, and saying sounds, words, and sentences.

NCT ID: NCT05988515 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Speech Sound Disorder

AI-Assisted Treatment for Residual Speech Sound Disorders

Start date: March 12, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this randomized-controlled trial is to determine how artificial intelligence-assisted home practice may enhance speech learning of the "r" sound in school-age children with residual speech sound disorders. All child participants will receive 1 speech lesson per week, via telepractice, for 5 weeks with a human speech-language clinician. Some participants will receive 3 speech sessions per week with an Artificial Intelligence (AI)-clinician during the same 5 weeks as the human clinician sessions (CONCURRENT treatment order group), whereas others will receive 3 speech sessions per week with an AI-clinician after the human clinician sessions end (SEQUENTIAL treatment order group.

NCT ID: NCT05929859 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Speech Sound Disorder

Intensive Speech Motor Chaining Treatment for Residual Speech Sound Disorders

iChain
Start date: October 26, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this randomized-controlled trial is to compare distributed treatment schedules and intensive treatment schedules in 84 school-age children with residual speech sound disorders. The main question it aims to answer is: - How does intensive and distributed treatment affect speech sound learning in residual speech sound disorder? Some participants will be treated with a traditional Distributed schedule of 2 sessions per weeks for 8 weeks (16 hours total), whereas others will be treated with an Intensive schedule and will complete 16 hours of treatment in 4 weeks.

NCT ID: NCT04996472 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Speech Sound Disorder

A Framework For Linking Sequential Pattern Rules in DLD: Perception in Adults

Start date: August 3, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This broad aim of this clinical study is to assess the hypothesis that morphological and phonological deficits are linked by a broader deficit in sequential pattern learning. This hypothesis applies to learning in general, but is especially critical as an avenue for developing earlier assessments and more powerful interventions for children with developmental language disorder (DLD; AKA specific language impairment). Other populations, such as at-risk toddlers, may also benefit from this new approach.

NCT ID: NCT04858035 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Speech Sound Disorder

Auditory-Perceptual Training Via Telepractice

Start date: January 21, 2022
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

The objective of this study is to measure the effects of online perceptual training on perception and production in children with RSE who exhibit atypical perception relative to norms from our lab-based pilot data. In a multiple-baseline across-subjects design, 10 children with RSE will begin in a baseline phase probing perceptual acuity for /r/. Perceptual training with multiple types of stimuli will be initiated in a staggered fashion. Production probes elicited before and after treatment will assess the extent to which perception gains transfer to /r/ production.

NCT ID: NCT04858022 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Speech Sound Disorder

Visual Acoustic Biofeedback for RSE Via Telepractice

Start date: January 15, 2022
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This research will meet a public health need by evaluating the efficacy of speech intervention supplemented with real-time visual-acoustic biofeedback when delivered using remote technologies.

NCT ID: NCT04625062 Completed - Clinical trials for Speech Sound Disorder

Comparing Traditional and Biofeedback Telepractice Treatment for Residual Speech Errors

C-RESULTS TPT
Start date: September 1, 2020
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

This study aims to evaluate the relative efficacy of biofeedback and traditional treatment for residual speech errors when both are delivered via telepractice. In a single-case randomization design, up to eight children with RSE will receive both visual-acoustic biofeedback and traditional treatment via telepractice. Acoustic measures of within-session change will be compared across sessions randomly assigned to each condition. It is hypothesized that participants will exhibit a clinically significant overall treatment response and that short-term measures of change will indicate that biofeedback is associated with larger increments of progress than traditional treatment.

A Developmental Framework For Linking Phonological And Morpho-syntactic Sequential Pattern Rules In DLD: Production

Start date: August 7, 2022

This hypothesis applies to learning in general, but is especially critical as an avenue for developing earlier assessments and more powerful interventions for children with developmental language disorder (DLD; also known as specific language impairment). Other populations, such as at-risk toddlers, may also benefit from this new approach.
