Masters thesis, Universiti Sains Malaysia.
Abstract
Rekahan bibir dan lelangit (CLP) adalah suatu kecacatan kongenital muka
yang sering ditemui. Pesakit CLP mengalami masalah makan, bernafas, infeksi
telinga tengah, masalah psikososial dan lain-lain. Rawatannya memerlukan
penglibatan pelbagai disiplin yang bermula dari hari pertama dilahirkan dan
berterusan hingga peringkat umur 20 ke 21 tahun. Pemanjangan rawatan dari
ketika lahir ke alam dewasa amatlah mahal dan membebankan pesakit,
keluarga dan masyarakat. Perkembangan muka pesakit CLP selalunya tidak
mengikut tumbesaran yang normal walaupun selepas pembedahan
pembetulan.
Cleft lip and palate (CLP) is the most common congenital facial defect.
Patients with CLP suffer from feeding, breathing, middle ear infections as well
as psychosocial and other problems. The treatment requires interventions from
multiple disciplines which start from the first day of life and continue up to the
age of 20 to 21 years. Prolong treatment from birth to adulthood is expensive
and is a burden for the patient, family and for the society.
