Anterior drooling is common in children with cerebral palsy (CP) and poses significant risks to the child's health. Causes of drooling include oro-motor dysfunction, inefficient swallowing and reduced sensation in the orofacial musculature. Behavioural interventions are frequently recommended to reduce drooling; however, this is in the absence of high-quality research evidence. This paper describes a protocol for evaluating the effectiveness of the Lee Silverman Voice Treatment LOUD (LSVT LOUD®) in reducing drooling; and optimising speech and swallowing in a group of children with CP. A structured and systematic visual analysis supplemented with statistical analyses will be used to analyse the data. The risk of bias in n-of-1 trials (RoBiNT) Scale [1] guided the design and implementation of the study.
流口水在脑瘫（CP）儿童中很常见，对儿童健康构成重大风险。流口水的原因包括口面部运动功能障碍、吞咽效率低下以及口面部肌肉组织感觉减退。经常推荐采用行为干预措施来减少流口水；然而，这缺乏高质量的研究证据。本文描述了一项评估李·西尔弗曼嗓音治疗法（LSVT LOUD®）减少流口水效果的方案；并优化一组脑瘫儿童的言语和吞咽功能。将使用结构化和系统的视觉分析并辅以统计分析来分析数据。单病例试验的偏倚风险（RoBiNT）量表[1]指导了本研究的设计和实施。
