Background:
The importance of oral and laryngeal diadochokinesia as an assessment instrument of the motor control in neurological cases.
Aim:
To relate the findings of oral and laryngeal diadochokinesia assessment with the data of oral motricity and vocal quality in patients with post cerebrovascular accident.
Method:
Perceptive-auditory and acoustic analyses were made as well as the assessment of oral and laryngeal diadochokinesia and of the mobility/motricity of the lips and tongue.
Results:
The diadochokinesia of the "a" demonstrated to be related to the mobility/motricity of the lips and tongue, whereas the production of "pataka" demonstrated to be related only with the tongue.
Conclusion:
The results indicate the presence of correlations between oral and laryngeal motor control in these patients.
