Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The real time analysis

    Changes from base line "The Real time analysis will use. It will use to assessed the changes in frequency ,duration types and severity of disfluencies in spontaneous speech.The total number of dysfluencies will be divided by the total number of syllables then multiply answer by 100 .Results between 2% showed normal range,8-15% will consider Moderate level, 12% will consider as severe level

    12 weeks
