Conclusion: LVR is available in routine clinical and home care settings in Brazil. There is a lack of standardization regarding indications, prescription, and outcome measures among PTs and SLPs in Brazil. Clear recommendations and guidelines are needed to standardize these parameters, enabling more objective data and facilitating comparisons between centers.
