Front 8

the presence of a cog. impair may affect tx and prog.- why?

Back 8

doing more than one thing at a time can be very diff. for client

Front 9

prob. with standard. cog. test batt. is that most are __

cog. tests-

Back 9

linguistically based thus making it diff. for aph. population

Front 12

4 theoretical orientations to aphasia tx

Back 12

1 stimulation-facilitation
2 deblocking
3 operant conditioning
4 functional/compensatory

Front 13

stim. fac. based on 3 pts

Back 13

1- disruption on pt. ability to access exisitng knowlede and pathway can be strengh. through stim.
2- use intense and repetet. program
3- reorgan. pt. lang. sys.

Front 14

deblocking- pathways disrupted. use intact lang. sys. to repair lang. sys. 2 ways to do this

Back 14

1- intasystemic- w/in lang modal. ex: singing to facili. output
2- intersystemic- use one modal. to stim. another ex: use gesturs to facl. verbal output

Front 15

operant conditioning- less frq. used. loss of ____ not ____ to learn lang. through____

Back 15

ling. knowledge not access -heavy reinforcement

Front 16

functional/compensatory- focus on exchange of ccomm. strat. instead of syntax and seman. lang. func. is lost so est comm. through

Front 21

computer axial tomography (CAT)

Back 21

proves a 3D struct. image of brain and body. allows you to see bone strct. and soft tissue not as percise in detecting a lot of lesions

Front 22

magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)

Back 22

provides 3D horizontal a gag. vew. more sensitive than CAT, able to reveal cerebral infarction at early stage
