Popis: |
We report our experience with a infant with Rett syndrome (RS) for whom we performed speechlanguage-hearing therapy on a weekly, with reference to the course of training and the importance of support for infants with RS.The infant was a 3-year-old girl who had been diagnosed with RS at the age of 1 year and 4 months, and began receiving speech-language-hearing therapy at our department at 2 years and 11 months.The infant followed a different course from that classic- RS, and showed developmental changes without regression of language and communication skills. With regard to language skills, the infant progressed from the word level to the word sequence level in terms of both comprehension and expression. As for communication skills, the infant became able to actively interact with others.These findings suggest that even in infants with disorders such as RS, developmental changes in language and communication skills can be achieved by performing individualized speech-languagehearing therapy that considers the child's developmental stage from an early stage.Therefore, in order to support children with these disorders from an early stage, it is important in the future to actively report cases and to promote the recognition of the need for speech-language-hearing therapy. |
