Velopharyngeal orifice areas during tasks used clinically to stimulate improved velopharyngeal closure.

open access: yes, 1994
Data-based evidence supporting behavioral treatments of velopharyngeal impairment is sparse. This study examined the initial step in some behavioral treatments--testing stimulability for improved velopharyngeal closure--to explore whether velopharyngeal ...

Relationship between pre-operative Nasalance Scores, Velopharyngeal, Closure Patterns, and Pharyngeal Flap Revision rate in patients with Velopharyngeal Insufficiency.

open access: yes, 2013
Velopharyngeal insufficiency (VPI) is a disorder that results from the improper contact of the soft palate, lateral pharyngeal walls, and posterior pharyngeal wall. These muscle groups make up the velopharyngeal sphincter.

Immediate Effects of Resistance Training on Velopharyngeal Function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Resistance training is known to be an effective way to strengthen a given muscle. Based on the established principles of the resistance training paradigm, the use of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) as a means to strengthen the velopharyngeal
