Resumo

Objetivo: mapear e descrever os achados a respeito do desempenho de indivíduos com gagueira, por meio dos potenciais evocados auditivos corticais, no contexto clínico fonoaudiológico.

Estratégia de pesquisa: trata-se de uma revisão de escopo conduzida segundo as diretrizes do Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR) e registrada no Open Science Framework (OSF) (https://doi.org/10.17605/OSF.IO/KGHXV). A busca foi realizada nas bases PubMed, LILACS, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Science Direct, SpeechBITE, OpenGrey.eu e DissOnline, sem restrição de idioma ou período.

Critérios de seleção: foram incluídos estudos primários que compararam o potencial evocado auditivo cortical entre indivíduos com e sem gagueira, com audição periférica normal e sem comorbidades.

Resultados: foram identificados 1.516 estudos. Após exclusões e triagens, sete artigos foram incluídos. A amostra total foi composta por 151 adultos (18 anos a 46 anos) e 202 crianças e adolescentes (4 anos a 18 anos). Os achados sugerem que indivíduos com gagueira, especialmente com quadros mais severos, tendem a apresentar maiores latências e menores amplitudes do complexo P1-N1-P2-N2, sobretudo na orelha direita. Alterações mais marcantes foram observadas em crianças, indicando maior sensibilidade do potencial evocado auditivo cortical nessa faixa etária.

Conclusão: Os dados sugerem que os potenciais evocados auditivos corticais podem refletir alterações no processamento auditivo central em indivíduos com gagueira, especialmente nos casos mais severos.

Abstract

 Purpose: To map and describe the findings regarding the performance of individuals who stutter on cortical auditory evoked potentials in the speech-language pathology clinical setting.

Research strategy: This scoping review was conducted according to the PRISMA-ScR guidelines and registered with the OSF (https://doi.org/10.17605/OSF. IO/KGHXV). The search was conducted in PubMed, LILACS, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Science Direct, SpeechBITE, OpenGrey.eu, and DissOnline, with no language or period restrictions.

Selection criteria: Primary studies comparing cortical auditory evoked potentials between individuals with and without stuttering, with normal peripheral hearing, and without comorbidities were included.

Results: A total of 1,516 studies were identified. After exclusions and screening, seven articles were included. The total sample consisted of 151 adults (18 to 46 years) and 202 children and adolescents (4 to 18 years). The findings suggest that individuals who stutter, especially those with more severe symptoms, tend to have higher latencies and lower amplitudes in the P1-N1-P2-N2 components, especially in the right ear. More marked changes were observed in children, indicating greater sensitivity of cortical auditory evoked potentials in this age group.

Conclusion: The data suggest that cortical auditory evoked potentials may reflect alterations in central auditory processing in individuals who stutter, especially in the most severe cases.
