Abstract

Purpose: to describe intervention methodologies implemented in recent years in stuttering children.

Methods: a search was performed for empirical articles on interventions in stuttering children aged 2.5 to 7 years. The search was carried out in Embase, WOS, Pubmed, and Scopus, considering articles published between January 2014 and June 2020.

Literature Review: 11 articles were selected out of the 1,099 retrieved. Different approaches were observed, of which the Lidcombe program showed the most evidence. Most studies were conducted on English-speaking children and participants were assessed regarding linguistic and non-linguistic aspects. All studies considered parental involvement in the intervention. No investigation took measurements for more than 24 months. Individual interventions predominated.

Conclusion: good therapeutic results were found in all reviewed interventions. Research comparing two types of treatments did not find one to be superior to the other.

Resumen

Objetivo: describir las metodologías de intervención implementadas durante los últimos años en niños con tartamudez

Métodos: se realizó la búsqueda de artículos empíricos de tratamiento en niños con tartamudez entre los 2.5 a 7 años. Se consideraron artículos publicados entre enero del año 2014 a junio del año 2020. La búsqueda se realizó en las bases de datos Embase, WOS, Pubmed y Scopus. Junto a lo anterior se realizó un análisis de las referencias de los artículos seleccionados.

Revisión de la Literatura: se seleccionaron 11 artículos de 1.099 revisados. Se observaron distintas propuestas de intervención de las cuales el Programa Lidcombe es el que mayor evidencia presenta. La mayoría de las investigaciones fueron realizadas en hablantes de lengua inglesa. Los participantes son evaluados tanto en aspectos lingüísticos como no lingüísticos. Todos consideraron la participación de los padres en la intervención. No hubo investigaciones con mediciones a más de 24 meses. Predomina la modalidad de intervención individual.

Conclusión: se evidencian buenos resultados terapéuticos en todas las intervenciones revisadas. En las investigaciones que compararon dos tipos de tratamiento no se observó la superioridad de uno por sobre otro.
