Modification of velopharyngeal closure pressures during phonation by neuromuscular electrical stimulation in healthy individuals
CONCLUSIONS: NMES in combination with articulation results in a change of the velopharyngeal closure pattern with a pressure increase of around 200% in healthy individuals. This might be of therapeutic benefit for patients with velopharyngeal insufficiency.PMID:38651019 | PMC:PMC11034089 | DOI:10.3205/000329
