A Clinical Study of Audio-visual Integration Training Combined with rTMS in the Treatment of Children with Delayed Speech Development
To study the clinical efficacy of audio-visual integration training combined with repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) in the treatment of children with delayed language development.
Methods
2
87 children with language development delay treated at our hospital from January 2019 to January 2021 were selected and randomly divided into a control group (n=43) and an observation group (n=44) using a random number table. The control group received conventional language training
while the observation group received audiovisual integration training combined with rTMS on the basis of the control group. The interventions lasted for 6 months. The treatment effects before and after the intervention
verbal behavior assessment scale (Ver-BAS) scores
oral motor function scores
articulation ability scores
developmental quotient (DQ) scores
and neurocentral nutritional factors were compared between the two groups
and parental satisfaction was also investigated.
Results
2
The observation group had a higher overall effective rate (95.45%) than the control group (76.74%) (
P
0.05).Following the intervention
both groups' Ver-BAS
oral motor function
phonological ability
and DQ scores increased; the observation group's score was significantly higher than the control group's (
P
0.05). Serum levels of neurotrophic factor-3 (NT-3)
glial cell-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF)
nerve growth factor (NGF)
and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) were significantly higher in the observation group than in the control group (
P
0.05). The observation group (97.73%) was more satisfied than the control group (79.07%)(
P
0.05).
Conclusion
2
Visual and auditory integration training combined with rTMS can significantly improve the language ability
oral-motor function
and phonological ability of children with delayed speech development
and also has the advantage of promoting the overall development of the children and the expression of central nervous trophic factor
the effect is accurate
and the families of the children are more satisfied.
