Melodic intonation therapy

A

SCHLAUG MARCHINA NORTON 2010

  • Improves EL And fluency by utilizing melody and rhythm
    1. Begin c hum/hand tap. Fade hum, cont tap
    2. Add Lang: SLP models production of word c same inton & tapping, fades verbal participation
    3. Pt tries independently c SLP tap ( phon cues if needed)
    4. SLP models s tap. Pt imitates
  • *Sig improv In #CIUs in spont speech, pic desc, &naming

A

BEESON 1999
1. Pt shown pic &writes word.
2. If incorrect SLP presents letters out of order-pt must put in correct order
>X=SLP arranges Letters. Pt spells 3x. Repeat #2
>=Pt spells 3x. Move to 3
3. Pt spells letters+2 foils
>X=SLP arranges Letters. Pt spells 3x. Repeat #2
>
=Move to #4

Semantic feature analysis

(SFA)

A

BOYLE & COELHO 1995

  • Pt names pic & id SF (character., function, category etc)
  • Strengthens semantic networks (single word)
  • 7/7 e/d, 1hr x 7; 3 sets 9/7 d/e, 1 hr x 9.
  • Pt Assisted. if needs more help, SLP writes the feature
  • Generalized to untrained words and connected speech tasks

Verb network strengthening treatment

VNest

A

EDMONDS 2005
-verb production & sent comp strongly correlated… May generalize to production
-found changes in sent production for trained and untrained semantically related verbs (improved connected speech)
-PT produces 3 agent verb pairs (write= author/story)
-Choose 1 pair & answer WH?
(Does a journalist write?)
-SLP reads 12 sent c target verb. PT decides if its semantically correct (The infant writes a poem)

Q

BDAE HOMOPHONE MATCHING TASK

A
  • Assesses direct route, no semantics needed
  • requires intact OIL (to rec string of letters as familiar word) and POL (to determine which words sound the same)
  • uses OIL instead of GPC bc uses irreg words
  • good score on this task means intact VOA, OIL, POL.
  • poor score doesn’t tell you as much… Lesion could be anywhere on the route

Q

Phonological output buffer

A

FRANKLIN ET AL 2002

  • inc self monitoring
  • Judge productions, identify location of error in work
  • pt identifies SLP’s errors
  • Record Pts productions patient assesses them
  • Name pic immediately judge production
28
Q

ORLA protocol

A
1. SLP reads aloud, points to wrds
2 SlP reads aloud, pt/slp point
3 Slp/pt read aloud&point inunison
4 for each sentence, Slp says word, pt points 
5 SLP points to word,pt reads it 
6 Pt reads whole thing in unison
29
Q

ORLA reading levels

A

LEVEL 1: 3-5 word sentence, 1st grd
LEVEL 2: 8-12 wrds in 1-2 short sent, 3rd grd

LEVEL 4: 50-100 wrds in 4-6 sent/Simple paragraph, 6th grd

30
Q

Phonological dyslexia tx

A

BEESON ANS HENRY 2008

  • Reestablish PGC thru rehearsal & word association
  • start c most freq consonants
  • 5 c’s per session
  • associated word must be in pts repertoire
  • progress measured at the beginning of each session –80% accuracy=next 5 c’s
31
Q

  • pic word matching
  • SFA

-do cherney 2004 ORLA

32
Q

Deep dysgraphia treatment

A
BEESON----ACT/CART
-Strengthens:
   >>>ortho reps of specific words 
   >>PGC route
-Uses multiple input modalities
-Increases word level writing abilities despite length post-onset, and severity
33
Q

Agrammaticism

A
  • Omission of grammat. elements
  • Non fluent aphasia
  • Long believed to be an expressive impairment but research shows that agrams also failed to understand many sent
  • They appear to interpret sentences based on semantic cues & word order rather than sentence structure
  • Often assume that the first noun mentioned is the agent of the action
34
Q

Paragrammaricism

A

Common in Wernickes aphasia

Miss use of grammatical elements

“The Cinderella was his his father and his father but he’s passed away so she’s his his mother in law was the really little bit angry and everything”

35
Q

Garrett 1988

A
  1. Message level
    -Lexical selection: select wrds/ meanings (“girl boy kick ignore angry”)
    -Lexical assignment: assigns function of words/thematic roles (v=ignore, s=girl boy, v=kick)
  2. Functional level
    -word form retrieval: phonology (/k I k/)
    -planning frames (act=N-AUX V-N; pas=N-V-N)
  3. Positional level: establishes structural order–phonetic encoding & artic
    “The girl is kicking the boy”
36
Q

Mapping deficit hypothesis

A

Aphasics are unable to relate sentence form to meaning

37
Q

Wepman 1972

A

Perseveration Tx

  • Persev <–not taking enough time to consolidate/integrate responses
  • SLP: give enough time for consol/ int responses:
  • X= “tell me ab work” “I work in a flower shop.” “Do u have a fam?” “yes I work in the flower shop.”
  • *= “tell me ab work” “I work in a flower shop.” “how’s the business “/”what’s the busy time of year”
38
Q

Francis, Clark, Humphreys 2002

A

Circumlocution induced naming

  • Talk around the topic..if pt continues to have difficulty, SLP can jump in & reinforce info.. but DO NOT provide the name
  • improve naming
39
Q

Freed Celery Marshall 2004

A

Personalized cues

make personally relevant cues to recall the word (
which is how I study, KFJ associate Campbell’s soup)

40
Q

Wernickes aphasia tx

A
  • Benefit from comp in a convo context
  • manipulate linguistic & Temporal variables
  • reduce: Defective speech Output , perseverations, word finding difficulties, lack of/excessive self corrections
41
Q

How to control linguistic and temporal complexity in wenickes

A
  • slow rate
  • Visual/ gestural cues
  • redundancy
  • redirect to topic
  • humor
  • syntactic simplification
  • reinforce when pt asks for repet
  • give false info for pt to correct
  • give 1 salient wrd
  • Emotion and facial expressions
42
Q

Wernickes aphasia tx

Reduce defective speech output

A
  • When defective utterances are produced, it is fed back into an impaired auditory system
  • STOP: SLPs pt “what u need to do now?” goal: to id & correct errors
  • Encourage shorter applies stop the patient from talking so much and frame questions
  • when STOP doesn’t work, Paraphrase:model defective utterance into a correct form for positive feedback
43
Q

How do you distinguish bw fluent and nonfluent

A
  • fluent = Longest 3 utterances of 5 words or more

* fluent tends to use more verbs

44
Q

Distinguishing between the OOL in that 00B lesion:

A
  • There’s no test to distinguish you have to look at the types and nature of errors
  • if lesion at OOB You tend to make milder letter transposition and sequencing errors
45
Q

53
Q

How was the BDAE and PAL normed?

A

BDAE: On people with aphasia
So a 50% Is average for someone with a brain injury not for someone who’s normal

PAL: L/R CVAs TBI and normal controls were used for the norms

54
Q

Semantic system PAL dx tests

A
  1. Aud word pic match
  2. Forced choice attributes verification (strength of SS: reads wrds aloud, pt asked y/n q- “is a kettle made out of wood?”
  3. Relatedness judgment (“Does the word ‘break’ mean ‘destroy’ or ‘touch’”)
55
Q

Plaut 1995

A

Connectionist model of language

-Subsystems used in naming are connected
O p s

56
Q

Thalamic Cortical aphasias

A
  • Anomia in spont soeech, some impair conf name **normal grammar **, normal artic, flawless rep
  • Aph=indirect conseq of sub cortical lesions (the impact of thalamic dysf on cerebral cort function)
  • deficits in lexical-s access (declaraive mem) not in phon proc & grammar (procedural mem) **but theres always exceptions- eg phonemic and neologistic errors do occur sometimes-ESP c thalam hemorrhages
57
Q

Nonthalamic subcortical aphasia

A

Not fundamentally different from cortical aphasias
-Like the cortical aphasias, both declarative and procedural memory can be affected = can have impairments in lexical semantic access. phonology, and grammar

Prime AC for sentences
By showing a written word/pic/object to get them in set for the convo

For wernickes but DON’T USE IF SEVERE AC (then focus on word level tasks)
