Abstract
Introduction: the present work intends in the adult with cerebral palsy speech-language characteristics that occur in patients with sequelae of cerebral palsy of the Orofacial Motricity Center. Methodology: 35 adults with CP were evaluated. The performance classification systems in the control of saliva, food and communication-expression and the Spanish version of the Frenchay Dysarthria Assessment (Version 2) were used. Regarding the swallowing and voice handicap, the Spanish versions of the Deglutition Handicap Index and Voice Handicap Index questionnaires were applied. Results: adults with cerebral palsy, participants in the study, have an average age of 35 years, most were women (23 people). Most of them present performance difficulties in the control of saliva (11 people), feeding (15 people) and in communication-expression (20 people). Dysarthria ranges from mild (in the spastic and ataxic classification type) to moderate (in the dyskinetic classification type). There are disadvantages in swallowing and voice. Discussion: alterations were identified in the performance of salivary control, feeding and communication-expression, mild to moderate dysarthria and a disadvantage resulting from swallowing and voice alterations.
