Objective To analyze the efficacy of rehabilitation training combined with parental participation on the articulation of children, so as to lay a scientific foundation for the clinical treatment of functional dysarthria. Methods A total of 67 children with functional dysarthria in the department of rehabilitation, Zhuzhou Central Hospital, from September 2018 to January 2020 were enrolled in this study. According to the random number table method, children were randomly divided into parental participation group (n=33) and conventional group (n=34).Both groups were given regular articulation training, while parents were involved during the entire treatment process in the parental participation group and trained once a week with daily WeChat check-in for a total of 12 weeks. Results After 12 weeks of treatment, the articulation level was significantly improved than that before treatment both in parental participation group and regular group (t=22.38, 25.50, P<0.01). Moreover, the articulation level of the parental participation group was significantly higher than that of the conventional group (t=5.10, P<0.01). The average days of home exercise and the total effective rate of the parental participation group were significantly higher than those of the conventional group(t=16.08, χ²=19.90, P＜0.01). Conclusions Rehabilitation training combined with parental participation is more effective for children with functional dysarthria.
