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.
