Abstract
Prompted by bioethical considerations, speech and language therapists deal with questions on the efficacy and effectiveness of treatments in daily clinical practice. To answer these questions, they usually turn to expert opinion, research papers and/or specialist textbooks. However, these may not be the best sources of information or may be unavailable. Evidence-based practice has been revealed to be the optimal way to achieve high treatment efficacy and effectiveness. Nevertheless, difficulties inherent in the profession reduce the possibility of using evidence-based practice. The aim of this study was to describe the main results obtained in systematic reviews and evidence-based clinical practice guidelines on interventions for dysarthria. We show that greater efforts are needed to improve the quality of interventions.
