  • Rééducation myofonctionnelle orofaciale et prise en charge multidisciplinaire des troubles respiratoires obstructifs du sommeil
    Publication . Chuang, Li-Chuan; Hervy-Auboiron, Michèle; Huang, Yu‐Shu; Bianchini, Esther; Reina, Carlos O’Connor; Yoon, Audrey; Amat, Philippe
  • Electromyographic analysis of the masseter and suprahyoid muscles in the oral phase of swallowing in healthy adult individuals
    Publication . Gioia, Andrea; Santos-Filho, Sebastião; Bianchini, Esther
    Objective: to evaluate by means of electromyographic analysis of the masseter and suprahyoid muscles the oral phase of the swallowing of different volumes of saliva and liquid in healthy adult individuals. Material and Methods: the method consisted in analyzing samples of three swallowing trials: voluntary and single swallow of saliva (dry), voluntary and single swallow of 10 ml of water, and voluntary and single swallow of 20ml of water. Statistical analysis: Through Friedman’s ANOVA test we observed a significant variation in the medium potential of the right suprahyoid muscle (p=0.010) when compared to the left suprahyoid muscle (p=0.05). Other correlations were verified by using the Nemenyi test, the Wilcoxon test and the Spearman coefficient to support the different analyses of the results. Results: the analysis found a direct relation between the electrical activity of the masseter and suprahyoid muscles when swallowing 20 ml water as regards the highest potential values, irrespective of face side – left or right; i.e., when swallowing 20ml water, the higher the potential of one muscle group, the higher the expected value of its antagonist. Conclusion: the electromyographic behavior of the masseter and suprahyoid muscles during voluntary swallowing of saliva and two standardized liquid volumes showed that the electrical activity of the masseter muscles did not vary according to the type of swallowing.
  • Speech-language-hearing instruments to assess peripheral facial palsy: an integrative literature review
    Publication . Pereira, Mariane; Bianchini, Esther; Silva, Mabile; Palladino, Ruth
    Purpose: to describe and analyze the clinical instruments that assess peripheral facial palsy through an integrative literature review. Methods: the precepts for this type of review were followed: research question, identification, selection of studies, and critical analysis. The Virtual Health Library (VHL), Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO), Google Scholar, and PubMed databases were accessed to search for fully available articles published in national journals between January 2008 and July 2018. The terms used in the search were “Speech, Language and Hearing Sciences”, “Evaluation”, and “Facial Paralysis”, in both English and Portuguese. The data obtained were organized per author, title, objective, instruments used, description of the instruments, and application procedures used in the articles. Results: out of the total 992 articles found, only 18 met the inclusion criteria of the research. In most of them, there was only the citation of the assessment instruments or considerations about them, without fully describing the application procedures. Conclusion: the study identified publications that indicate the use of clinical and speech-language-hearing assessment instruments. However, further detailing is necessary regarding the assessment procedures to help develop and refine the speech-language-hearing methodologies and techniques.
  • Déclaration de consensus sur l'évaluation et la rééducation myofonctionnelles orofaciales chez les patients souffrants de SAOS : proposition d'un processus international par la méthode Delphi
    Publication . Moeller, Marc Richard; Weber, Silke; Coceani-Paskay, Licia; Amat, Philippe; Bianchini, Esther; Botzer, Eyal; Boyd, Kevin; Bruni, Oliviero; Felicio, Claudia Maria de; Hrubos-Strøm, Harald; Jagomagi, Triin; Keenan, Sharon; Moeller, Joy Lea; Kwok-Keung, Daniel; Reina, Carlos O’Connor; Pirelli, Paola; Spruyt, Karen; Suzuki, Mayumi; Weaver, Samantha; Zavras, Athanasios; Randerath, Winfried; Kryger, Meir
    La rééducation myofonctionnelle orofaciale a été montrée efficace dans la prise en charge multidisciplinaire du syndrome d’apnées obstructives du sommeil chez l’enfant, l’adolescent et l’adulte, et elle est prescrite à plusieurs étapes de ces prises en charge. Cependant, compte tenu du manque d’homogénéité des protocoles de traitement et de mesures des résultats, du manque de recherches sur le type, la fréquence et la durée des exercices myofonctionnels et sur les phénotypes spécifiques qui peuvent en bénéficier, il apparait nécessaire de définir des recommandations de bonne pratique. Un consensus de recommandations Delphi consacré à l’évaluation et au traitement myofonctionnel orofacial pour les patients atteints de SAOS, a été mis en oeuvre à l’initiative de Marc Richard Moeller. Les deux premières étapes du consensus de recommandations Delphi sont achevées. La troisième étape, consacrée à l’élaboration du questionnaire aura lieu lors de la réunion conjointe de la World Sleep Society et de l’Academy of Applied Myofunctional Sciences, en mars 2022 à Rome. Les conclusions du consensus de recommandations Delphi seront publiées l’année suivante et largement diffusées.
