Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Expected outcome 1: maximum lip pressure, using the Iowa Oral Performance Instrument, a muscle pressure measurement instrument, based on the observation of variation in the pre- and post-intervention measurements.;Expected outcome 2: electrical activity from the lips during protrusion, using surface electromyography, based on the observation of variation in the pre and post-intervention measurements.;Expected outcome 3: electrical activity from the lips during speech, using surface electromyography, based on the observation of variation in the pre and post-intervention measurements.;Expected outcome 4: electrical activity from the lips during rest, using surface electromyography, based on the observation of variation in the pre and post-intervention measurements. | — |
