BACKGROUND: The main goal of the nasoalveolar molding (NAM) is to mitigate the initial severity of the cleft, facilitating the subsequent surgical procedures. Nevertheless, the use of the appliance entails high stress levels for families.
AIM: The aim of this study was to assess the perceptions, attitudes, and opinions of parents whose cleft-affected children underwent treatment using the NAM technique.
DESIGN: A cross-sectional questionnaire study was conducted on a cohort of relatives of infants born with cleft lip and palate who were treated with the NAM appliance. The parents completed a 59-item questionnaire that had been previously validated.
RESULTS: The initial cohort consisted of 104 families. The level of satisfaction was high, and there was a direct correlation with early diagnosis. Satisfaction levels varied depending on the cleft type, with a decrease in cases of bilateral presentation. Satisfaction was influenced by the newborns' adaptation and the absence of complications. Parents who exhibited lower levels of satisfaction contemplated terminating the treatment.
CONCLUSIONS: Parents expressed high satisfaction with NAM treatment, due to effective management and understanding. Bilateral clefts and delayed diagnosis can significantly impact satisfaction. These results emphasize the importance of personalized approaches to address challenges in NAM treatment, particularly in instances of bilateral clefts and delayed diagnoses.
