Active clinical trials for "Sialorrhea"

The study is a transversal, observational, descriptive survey of the practices and opinions of health professionals carried out nationally across France that aims to characterize children with cerebral palsy and pathological drooling and to describe care pathways, assessment and treatment of drooling.

The aim of this study is to investigate the reliability and construct validity of the Turkish version of the Drooling Impact Scale in children with cerebral palsy

Between available therapies for dry mouth is electrostimulation. Using an extra-oral device like TENS - which result in a statistically significant - increases the quantity of whole salivary flow rate production in xerostomia patients. The use of acupuncture as an alternative treatment modality for xerostomia has been documented in the Western medical field since the 1980s. Observational studies have demonstrated that acupuncture treatment may increase salivary flow in healthy volunteers.

The purpose of this study is to examine pacifier sucking habits among children, and to assess implications of the oral habit - for example malocclusions and drooling. The effect of pacifier sucking will be recorded and compared to pacifier type and frequency of use.
