Limited speech production (few vowel and/or consonants) and cognitive impairment is which type of CP?
Spastic quadriplegia
What affects the neuromuscular junction where the LMNs meet muscle tissue and caused by antibodies that damage receptor sites of acetylcholine on the muscle tissue?
Myasthenia Gravis
The dopamine producing neurons in the substantia nigra (SN) degenerate, thus producing less dopamine for use in the striatum; dopamine (inhibitor) deficiency, state of dysinhibition, leads to _________?
Parkinsonian symptoms
What is involved in regulating muscle tone and maintaining normal posture and static muscle contraction upon which voluntary, skilled movements ?
Basal Ganglia
What is responsible for quick, skilled, discrete movements like speech?
Direct Activation Pathway
A client presents with strong auditory comprehension skills, poor repetition, one word per utterance (nonfluent speech), and poor confrontational naming. What aphasia does this client present with?
Broca's aphasia
An example of intervention at the impairment level would be?
The use of vocalization exercises
An example of treatment for functional limitation level would be?
The use of interventions to improve intelligibility
What is the most common motor neuron disease?
Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS)
What manifests in a mixed dysarthria, spastic/ataxic dysarthria?
Multiple Sclerosis
This can result from multiple neurological events, such as multiple strokes or traumatic injury that affects more than one location
Mixed dysarthria
If a patient has the presence of coma after TBI reflects lesion at what level of the nervous system and therefore, the possibility of what type of dysarthria upon arousal?
Lower Moter Neuron (LMN) dysarthria, flaccid.
What are 3 types of Spasmodic Dysphonia
Adductor, Abductor, Mixed
What is the most common movement, rhythmic, periodic?
Tremor
This is seen in patients with sustained posture and movement, affects upper limbs, head or voice; worsens with fatigue, may be misdiagnosed as psychogenic or parkinsonian
Essential tremor
What is characterized by slower movements than chorea, may have quick movements superimposed; sustained, involuntary contractions in one or more body parts?
Dystonia
What is the term described to affect two or more body part movements on the same side of the body?
Hemidystonia
What dysarthria is characterized by motor unsteadiness, and quick, unpredictable movements at rest, during attempts to maintain posture, and during movement, with a dance-like quality; person may make the movement appear intentional to avoid embarrassment?
Hyperkinetic Dysarthria: Chorea
What dysarthria is characterized by weakness, atrophy and fasciculations, hypotonia, and hypoactive gag reflex?
Flaccid Dysarthria (LMN lesion)
This nerve innervates the cricothyroid and when damaged can result in: decreased loudness, increased breathiness, and monotone vocal qualities.
Vagus nerve (X)
What bilateral nerve damage (both R and L branches) will result in hypernasality, as all muscles of the velum will show weakness?
Pharyngeal Branch bilateral damage
What treatment of stimuli would you consider to address apraxia of speech?
Bilabial and alveolar before sounds produced in the back of the mouth.
This nerve Innervates the following muscles: musculus uvulae, levator veli palatini, Salpingopharyngeus, Palatopharyngeus, and the superior and middle pharyngeal constrictors.
Vagus nerve (X): Pharyngeal Branch
What dysarthria causes impairment of the final common pathway - lower motor neurons (LMNs) of the cranial or spinal nerves?
Flaccid Dysarthria
Why is there a co-occurrence considered between Apraxia of speech and Broca's aphasia?
They have a similar localization of lesion.
