Role of nervous system
Controls and Regulates almost all motor, sensory, & cognitive processes (i.e.) everything you do, feel & think.)
Purpose of respiratory system
The purpose of the respiratory system is to provide respiration
Primary muscles of respiratory system
Diaphram and intercostals
Purpose of the Phonatory System
•Converts air flow / energy into sound •To provide resonating chamber for the air flow •Voice production by vocal fold vibration
Parts of phonary system
•Pharynx –3 divisions (nasopharynx, oropharynx, and laryngopharynx) •Larynx –Home to the vocal folds •Trachea –The windpipe
Parts of Resonatory System
•Nasal Cavity •Oral Cavity •Laryngeal Cavity •Velopharyngeal Port
Purpose of the Resonatory System
•Modification of airflow from pharynx into oral & nasal cavities
Parts of Articulatory System
•Maxilla •Mandible •Lips •Teeth •Hard Palate •Soft Palate (velum) •Tongue
Purpose of the Articulatory System
•Manipulates / shapes airflow from the phonatory system into precise speech sounds.
What Is A Articulation Disorder?
- Physical etiology, sounds are consistently absent or distorted. - CANNOT make the sound - EVERYTIME they try and say c it becomes b - LISPS are articulation disorder
What is a Phonological Disorder?
You misuse the sound but not all the time, it depends on where it is in the word= in brain it is a different set of rules when to use the sound. CAN make the sound but just use it wrong sometime. If this is only happening at the beginning of words it is a phonological disorder EX: …
How do you assess phonological and articulatory disorders?
•Determine: –Presence of disorder –Etiology (cause) –Affected sounds –Treatment
The Goldman Fristoe
Easel-style book with 43 picture plates 53 target words 61 consonant sounds in the initial,medial, and/or final positions 16 consonant clusters in initial position Prompting and Recueing Easy to Score
why we like the goldman fristoe
-easy to administer -easy to score -covers most phonemes
Limitations of Goldman Fristoe
Hard to score in real time Doesn't rule out a phonological disorder Some pictures can be hard to name
How do we treat articulation disorders?
•Drilling •Oral Motor Exercises
What Is A Speech Disorder?
•Speech disorder: inability to produce sounds correctly/fluently or voice problem
What is Fluency?
•Speech with appropriate –Rate –Rhythm •That is –Smooth –Effortless automatic
What is Disfluency?
•Pause •Interjection •Revision •Disfluencies don’t always detract from communicative quality
What is a fluency disorder?
•Speech with an unusually high rate of disfluencies that disrupts the flow of communication. –More than 3 SLDs / 100 words •Speech that hinders social communication or educational/occupational performance (Stuttering)
Primary Stuttering Behaviors
•Monosyllabic whole-word repetitions •Part-word repetitions –Sound: b-b-birthday –Syllable: bar-bar-barbaric •Sound Prolongation •Blocks
Secondary Stuttering Behaviors
•Physical Behavior –Eye blinking –Head jerking –Fist clenching •Psychosocial behaviors –Avoidance of words / sounds –Passiveness in conversation –Fear, embarassment, shame
Warning signs for developmental fluency disorders
1.Repetition of parts of words, especially the first part 2.More than 3 repetitions of a single speech unit 3.Prolongation of a sound, getting stuck on a sound 4.Evidence of frustration or embarassment while speaking
Diagnosis of stuttering
1. 10+ total disfluencies in 100 words 2. 3+ disfluencies in 100 words, made up of blocks, monosyllabic word repetitions, sound repetitions, and prolongations 3.Physical escape behaviors 4.Verbal avoidance behaviors
How do we assess stuttering disorders?
Case history Fluency charting grid Questionnaire Normed or criterion based tests
What are the Interventions for Fluency Disorders?
- Wait and see - Environmental modification (family centered, modify social situations and repeat words) - Operant training models (family centered, positive feedback) - Stuttering Modification (You’re going to stutter, it’s ok, we’ll help you through it, controlled stuttering) - Flue…
What are the classifications of voice disorders?
•Vocal abuse •Nodules/ Granuloma •Neurogenic voice disorders •Psychogenic voice disorders •Alaryngeal communication
What is vocal abuse?
A voice disorder caused by chronic or intermittent overuse or misuse of the vocal apparatus: can happen due to talking in noisy environments/ coughing or clearing the throat frequently/using caffine/ yelling screaming, cheering/lecturing/ smoking/secondhand
What are nodules?
A voice disorder caused by small bilateral growths on the vocal folds
What are nodules?
A voice disorder which happens when irritation of vocal folds leads to healing and the healing generates mass of tissue on the arytenoid: a granuloma
What are Neurogenic voice disorders?
A voice disorder resulting from Neurogenic Voice Disorders-results from illness, damage, or disease to the neurological systems associated with voice production
What is Alaryngeal communication?
A voice disorder that happens when individuals produce voice without the benefit of a larynx- often results from a tracheostomy or laryngectomy
What is the assessment procedure for voice disorders?
- Review of case history - Asking a lot of questions about how they use their voice and how motivated they are to fix it. - Oral motor exam - Clinical observation prompting voice use - Instrumentation
What are treatments for voice disorders?
- Counseling - Voice hygeine - Respiration exercises - Loudness reduction exercises - Relaxation training
What is aphasia?
•An acquired disturbance in the language system –After language has been established –The result of neurological injury to the language dominant hemisphere of the brain - Affects expressive and receptive capabilities of both spoken and written language
What are common causes of aphasia?
•Traumatic Brain Injury •Brain Tumor •Stroke
What are the 2 types of aphasia?
Fluent and non-fluent
What is the assessment process for aphasia?
•Screen •Aphasia Battery •Offline Instrumentation •Online Instrumentation
What are aphasia tests examining?
•Spontaneous speech •Auditory comprehension •Repetition •Naming skills •Reading skills •Writing skills
What are the aspects of prognosis for aphasia?
–Influenced by •Site of lesion •Size of lesion •Severity of aphasia •Handedness •Age •Pre-injury health Motivation for treatment
What is the treatment like for apahsia?
- Plasticity: often the brain rewires itself - Drills working on - Motor planning - Motor execution
What is dementia?
–A chronic and progressive decline in •Memory •Cognition •Language •Personality –Resulting from CNS dysfunction
What must dementia include?
•Must include decline in memory AND ONE of –Ability to generate coherent speech –Ability to recognize / identify objects –Ability to execute motor activities –Ability to think abstractly, make sound judgments, carry out complex tasks
What are some causes of dementia?
•Alzheimer’s disease •Vascular dementia •Frontotemporal dementia •Creutzfeldt-Jakob •Huntington’s disease Parkinsons disease
What is the treatment of dementia?
•Environmental changes •Optimizations to communication - Can be effective in mild / moderate cases of dementia - Treatments can manage, but aren’t effective at improving
