Purpose:  To study the occurrence of speech features commonly associated with Childhood Apraxia of Speech (CAS) in Swedish children with suspected CAS (sCAS) or Speech Sound Disorder (SSD) related to Cleft Palate and/or Lip (CP ± L). Method:  Thirty-four children (4.10–5.11) with SSD related to sCAS ( n  = 15) or repaired CP ± L ( n  = 19) participated. Consensus judgement of presence/absence of CAS features in single words were based on a checklist with operationalised definitions. Speech sound production measures were based on semi-narrow phonetic transcription. Intra- and inter-transcriber agreement was determined. Result:  Twelve participants (ten with sCAS (67%) and two with CP ± L (11%)) shared a CAS profile of phonemic speech inconsistency for consonants and vowels and a set of four features: vowel error, voicing error, difficulty achieving initial articulatory configurations or transitionary movement gestures and stress errors. The most frequent speech difficulties in children with non-CAS CP ± L ( n  = 17) were consonant distortion (88%) and hypernasal resonance (76%). Prosodic impairment was rare. Conclusion:  A distinct CAS speech feature profile was found for children with CAS, differing in number and distribution compared to children with CP ± L and SSD. CAS was found more frequently in CP ± L and SSD compared to reported estimates of clinical prevalence.
