Author: López Nicolás, Estela

Abstract: The purpose of this project was to develop a guide that included recommendations based on scientific evidence to improve the evaluation, diagnosis and intervention in cases of verbal dyspraxia in children. In order to facilitate the work of speech therapists and improve the care given to patients with this disorder. To this end, a bibliographic search was carried out in the Web of Science, Pubmed and Scopus databases. Articles from 2012 to 2022 on assessment, diagnosis and treatment of verbal dyspraxia were reviewed and a total of 9 articles were selected. The studies indicate that children diagnosed with verbal dyspraxia may present some early signs and describe different characteristics of this disorder, without reaching a consensus on them. Despite this, the articulatory, motor and segmental skills of children with possible verbal dyspraxia should be analyzed from a clinical and formal evaluation, using speech transcripts and employing quantitative measures. Speech therapy intervention methods that have proven effective in improving the skills of children with verbal dyspraxia and their maintenance are Integral Stimulation / Dynamic Temporal and Tactile Cueing (DTTC), Rapid Syllable Transition Treatment (ReST), Integrated Phonological Awareness Intervention and the Nuffield Dyspraxia Program. Further research on verbal dyspraxia is needed in order to reach a consensus on assessment, diagnosis, and intervention in this disorder.
