Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change in Drooling Impact Scale

    The severity of drooling is assessed from the parents perception, by the Drooling Impact Scale. This scale consists of a set of ten items exploring the impact of drooling on daily life activities and relationships, each measured on a scale of 1 to 10 (1 representing the lowest impact of drooling, 10 the highest).

    Control group : baseline and 1 month later. Intervention group : baseline and 1 month after treatment

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Internal consistency

    All groups : at inclusion

  • Test-retest reliability

    Control group : baseline and 1 month later

  • Responsiveness to change

    Intervention group : baseline and 1 month after treatment.

Study Arms (2)

Control

Children whose drooling was expected to remain relatively stable over 1 month

Intervention

Children receiving a treatment to reduce their drooling
