No results posted yet for this study

Summary

We aimed to evaluate chewing function (CF) in children with neuromuscular disorders, and investigate reliability of the Karaduman Chewing Performance Scale (KCPS).

Conditions

  • Mastication Disorder

Interventions

OTHER

Chewing evaluation

Children with neuromuscular disorders (NMD) will be participated. Children will be asked to chew a standardized biscuit while video recording. Two physical therapists will assess all video recordings independently and score each video according to the KCPS. The correlation between the KCPS scores of two therapists will be used for interobserver reliability. One therapist will rescore the recordings after an interval of 2 weeks for intraobserver reliability.
