Description
Two lectures on resonance disorders and velopharyngeal dysfunction. The VPI/incompetence/mislearning distinction matters because the treatment for each is completely different — and getting it wrong means your patient gets the wrong treatment.
Learning Outcomes
- Differentiate hypernasality, hyponasality, and cul-de-sac resonance
- Distinguish VPI from VP incompetence from VP mislearning
- Identify compensatory articulation patterns
- Explain why the distinction drives treatment decisions
