The committee thought that lack of ability to communicate would have a significant effect on health related quality of life and satisfaction, these outcomes were considered important.</p></div><div id="chd4.s1.1.12.1.2"><h5>The quality of the evidence</h5><p>Evidence was available for function as measured by the intelligibility of communication. The quality of this evidence was very low using GRADE. Evidence was downgraded for nonrandomised design and also for applicability &#x02013; one of the studies included older children and was downgraded for indirectness. There was a lack of evidence about interventions to improve receptive communication (such as optimising hearing) and training of communication partners of people with cerebral palsy. No evidence was found for the outcomes participation, independence or health related quality of life.</p></div><div id="chd4.s1.1.12.1.3"><h5>Benefits and harms</h5><p>The committee recognised the changing nature of communication needs in adults with cerebral palsy. People with cerebral palsy and communication difficulties could experience new onset communication difficulties as a result of neurological deterioration. To mitigate this risk, the committee therefore recommended awareness of the possibility of changing communication needs, and that people with cerebral palsy and their families and carers should be asked at each clinical review about any changes in hearing, speech or communication.</p><p>To identify communication needs and the support that the adult with cerebral palsy may require the committee decided, based on their experience and good practice, that people should be asked at every review whether they have experienced any changes that could impact on their communication. This would facilitate early recognition of problems and prevent them from becoming an obstacle to, for example, participation and access to services.</p><p>Even though no specific evidence was identified for the use of any particular alternative and augmentative communication systems, the committee agreed that communication is a basic human need and that the use of such systems should be considered if problems with communication are highlighted. The committee considered that this recommendation would help meet communication needs, support independence and improve quality of life and the quality of social relationships. Based on their knowledge the committee noted that there is variation in the availability of training in alternative and augmentative communication techniques. To be an effective means of communication the committee agreed that family, carers and people in regular contact with the adult with cerebral palsy need to receive training on how to use such techniques. The evidence suggested moderate benefits of interventions to improve intelligibility and the committee agreed there are effective speech therapy interventions (including augmentative and alternative communication systems), but the optimal choice would depend on the physical, cognitive, language and sensory needs of the individual. For this reason, they recommended referral to speech therapy services for those with new difficulties with verbal communication for a detailed assessment of each individual&#x02019;s needs.</p><p>The committee discussed that people with cerebral palsy and communication difficulties could experience problems in making themselves understood in unfamiliar social situations or when their regular communication partners change &#x02013; for example when moving out of the family home. They recommended key communication partners should be trained whenever alternative and augmentative communication techniques were required for adults with cerebral palsy, in addition to asking about changes in hearing, speech or communication at each clinical review.</p><p>The committee discussed one potential harm is the portability of some augmentative and alternative communication devices which might put-off some potential users. They also discussed that the use of language even if hard to understand is a social interaction that people prefer rather than using technology which to some seems to be one step removed from this. For this, and other reasons the committee highlighted than some people with poor intelligibility may still prefer to rely on their natural speech.</p><p>The committee discussed that there was a need for more research in this area. The committee noted that current practice is to offer Alternative and Augmentative Communication (AAC) over intensive speech and language therapy. However, limited evidence has been found to support this treatment. There was very low grade evidence of the use of supplemented speech (augmentative communication) with a combination of alphabet and topic cues to improve the intelligibility of dysarthric speech and also low grade evidence to support the use of intensive speech and language therapy to improve the intelligibility of dysarthric speech. However, this was in children (the mean age for this cohort was 14 years) which is below the age this guideline is concerned with. No evidence was found to support the use of alternative communication with adults with cerebral palsy, therefore further research is necessary to find whether there is support for the use of alternative or augmentative communication aids within this client group.</p></div></div><div id="chd4.s1.1.12.2"><h5>Cost effectiveness and resource use</h5><p>The committee noted that no relevant published economic evaluations had been identified for this topic.</p><p>The committee referred to the NHS England guidance for commissioning augmentative and alternative communication services and equipment that outlines the role of local and specialised augmentative and alternative communication service and the criteria for referral to these services. However, it was noted that such service specifications by NHS England are not evidence based and did not consider resource impact or cost effectiveness of implementation in areas where it currently is not. The committee made recommendations based on the evidence and their clinical expertise and considered that the extent of change in practice will vary according to current practice.</p><p>The committee recognised that speech intelligibility declines with age and if communication difficulties are not identified and managed appropriately, they can negatively affect participation and function. Knowing that speech and communication needs may change with time and social circumstance may lead to better identification and thus more timely management. Therefore, to reduce the high risk of missing emerging problems, the committee agreed healthcare professionals should ask the person with cerebral palsy and their families and carers about any changes in hearing, speech and communication at each review. Asking such questions would not incur any additional training costs according to the committee as healthcare professionals would likely refer adults who have difficulties with verbal communication to a speech. This would likely increase the number of appointments with speech therapists According to NHS Reference Costs 2015/16, the cost per consultantled attendance with a speech and language therapist is &#x000a3;87 (Currency Code, WF01B; Non-Admitted Face to Face Attendance; First Attendance; Service Code, 652).</p><p>The committee were unable to recommend any specific intervention because this would be individualised to the person&#x02019;s needs, taking into account their skills, aspirations and cognitive ability. However, the committee noted that low-tech and low-cost options would be considered by the local augmentative and alternative communication services, before more costly interventions such as powered communication aids.</p></div><div id="chd4.s1.1.12.3"><h5>Other factors the committee took into account</h5><p>Under the <a href="https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2005/9/contents" ref="pagearea=body&amp;targetsite=external&amp;targetcat=link&amp;targettype=uri">Mental Capacity Act 2005</a>, individuals should be given adequate opportunity to participate in any decisions about their care. Lack of effective means of communication could lead a person to be deemed to be incapable of making decisions for themselves. Even though there was a lack of evidence for alternative or augmentative communication systems the committee acknowledged that <a href="https://www.un.org/development/desa/disabilities/convention-on-the-rights-of-persons-with-disabilities/article-21-freedom-of-expression-and-opinion-and-access-to-information.html" ref="pagearea=body&amp;targetsite=external&amp;targetcat=link&amp;targettype=uri">Article 21</a> in the UN <a href="https://www.un.org/development/desa/disabilities/convention-on-the-rights-of-persons-with-disabilities/convention-on-the-rights-of-persons-with-disabilities-2.html" ref="pagearea=body&amp;targetsite=external&amp;targetcat=link&amp;targettype=uri">Convention on disability rights</a> relates to freedom of expression and opinion, and access to information. Article 21 states that it should be ensured that people with disabilities can have freedom of expression for example by: &#x02018;<i>Accepting and facilitating the use of sign languages, Braille, augmentative and alternative communication, and all other accessible means, modes and formats of communication of their choice by persons with disabilities in official interactions&#x02019;</i>.</p></div></div></div><div id="rl.r14"><h3>References</h3><ul class="simple-list"><li class="half_rhythm"><p><div class="bk_ref" id="chd4.s1.ref1"><p id="p-165">
