Abstract

The early intervention on People With Communication Disabilities (PWCD) is a fundamental strategy that has the aim of improving several skills related with speech, language, and swallowing. However, the existent tools are focused on the diagnosis or treatment of specific disorders, and commonly, they do not cover the different needs of people that provides rehabilitation, healthcare and educational services for patients (doctors, pathologists, and patient's relatives). On those grounds, in this paper we present a general overview of existing tools for diagnosis and intervention of PWCD, and on this basis, we propose an ecosystem that implements intelligent ICT tools and an expert system able to automatically generate therapy plans. The expert system has been previously evaluated and has reached encouraging results.
