Abstract
This paper presents a comprehensive screening procedure for describing the speech characteristics commonly associated with cleft palate and/or velopharyngeal dysfunction. A unique method of representing the information visually is proposed. The theoretical background and recommendations for clinical application are discussed. This procedure is designed for use by specialist and non-specialist speech and language therapists working in this field. It has been developed primarily with a child population but can be used with all age groups. It provides a structure for assessment, record keeping, report writing and research, thereby facilitating the development of intercentre studies.
