Despite the fact that some patients do not need respiration intervention what should treatment planning should always address?
The possible need to attend to respiration
Describe some of the related speech tasks that focus on increasing breath support.
maximal vowel prolongation (for duration and loudness)
targeting the optimal breath group
pushing, pulling, bearing down

expiatory muscle conditioning
postural adjustments
List some nonspeech tasks used for respiration intervention
Manometer
Transducer
Medical approval and supervision must be consulted when which type of prosthetic device for respiration intervention is used and why?
Admoninal Trussing
-because it can restrict inspiration and increase the risk of pneumonia

inspiratory checking and
increasing awareness of deep inhalation and forceful exhalation
When working with a pt who has phonation issues, what is the focus on behavioral management?
The focus of behavioral management of phonation is: To increase utterance length per breath group and to obtain loudness levels that are sufficient for social contexts.
Describe two types of prosthetic management devices that are useful in the intervention of phonation:
portible amplification systems,
articifical larynx
cervical collars/neck braces (for movement disorders)
vocal intensity control (VU meter on recorder)
What are some of the effort closure techniques used in the behavioral management of phonation for a patient with vocal fold weakness?
grunting

pushing
lifting
pulling
Hyperadduction or Hypoadduction?

The clinician may prompt the client to initiate speech with a breath voice.
Hyperadduction
Which type of pitch (higher or lower) may decrease tremor amplitude?
Lower Pitch
How will the patient with velopharyngeal inadequacy present?
-reduced breath group
-increased pauses for inhalation
-air wastage (nasal airflow)
-reduced intensity
What is one informal way to assess for velopharyngeal inadequacy?
compare the client's speech with nares occluded vs. speech with nares nonoccluded
What qualities must a patient have if he/she is to be considered a candidate for prosthetic management?
-significant VP weakness as a primary concern
-have evidence of lateral pharyngeal wall movement during speech
-have stable deficits (not rapidly worsening)
-not have a significant gag reflex
-be very motivated
-be able to operate themselves
What things might an SLP target when attempting to target resonance from a behavioral management standpoint?
-modify pattern of speaking
-resistance training
-feedback
-techniques focused on nonspeech velopharyngeal movements
Articulation sometimes improves when ______ ______ is optimized (2 words).
respiratory support
Are pharmacologic management techniques for articulation well investigated?
NO
_____________ ____________ (2 words) have potential as an effective treatment for lingual protrusion dystonia and orofacial and mandibular dystonias that impair speech.
Botox Injection
The text listed 5 types of behavioral management for articulation- what were they?
Strength training
Relaxation exercises
Stretching exercises
Instrumental biofeedback
Traditional approaches
Describe 2 of the 6 traditional approaches to behavioral modification of articulation listed in the text.
integral stimulation- watch and listen tasks
phonetic placement- hands on and picture cueing
phonetic derivation- using nonspeech gesture to facillitate production
exaggeration of consonants
contrastive drill tasks- minimal contrasts
intelligibility drills-
What is the most powerful, single behaviorally modifiable variable for improving intelligibility?
Rate
what speech target also-
*facilitates articulatory precision and intelligibility by allowing for a full range of movement, increases time for coordination, and improves linguistic phrasing?
Rate Modification (usually reduction)
Functional meaningful generalization of rate modification requires what?
intensive and extended training
Delayed Auditory Feedback Machines, Pacing Devices, and Alphabet Boards are what type of management for what speech therapy target?
type of management: prosthetic
speech therapy target: rate modification
Name three nonprosthetic rate reduction strategies:
hand or finger tapping (syllables or words)
visual feedback (computer or oscilloscope)
rhythmic cueing or metered cueing
backdoor approaches
T/F Prosody and naturalness are not always appropriate targets in tehrapy
False: they are always appropriate!
To slow down rate of speech nomal people do what?
Decrease the length of pauses more often than actually speeding up their articulators
Describe the following strategies for intervention of prosody and naturalness:
*contrastive stress tasks
*referential tasks
Contrastive stress tasks: scripted responses in which segmental information does not vary, but the stress patterns do - minimal pairs with stress!

Referential Tasks: patient reads randomized phrases or sentences containing prespecified stress targets that are unknown to a listener. If the listener is able to identify the targeted stressed word, the patient has succeeded!
Please describe an appropraite sequence of therapy activities when targeting prosody and naturalness.
Should begin with highly structured tasks and then transition gradually to spontaneous speech, use of short dialogues of scripts of conversation.
