Dysarthria Treatment Flashcards
Respiration Treatments
- Relaxation Exercise
- Postural Exercise
- Pressure Genrating Exercise
- Inhalation Exercise
- Quick Breathing Exercise
- Synchronizing Exercise
- Isolated Speech Exercise
- Connected Speech Exercise
Relaxation Exercise
Respiration
Abnormal tone- hypertonia
Postural Exercise
Respiration
Abnormal postures
Pressure Generating Exercise
Respiration
use w/reduced air pressure (generate capability)
Inhalation/Exhalation
Respiration
Improve control (strength and coordination) Improve lung volume (as much air as possible)
Quick Breathing Exercise
Respiration
For slow speech breathing rates (learn how to inhale more often)
Synchronizing Exercise
Respiration
For incoordination
Isolated Speech Exercise
Respiration
Take good respiration of non speech and be able to use for speech
Connected Speech Exercise
Respiration
You start at isolation and move up
Resonation Treatments
10 hours of Behavioral Management Exercises before palatal lift and/or surgery
- Reduction of Pharyngeal Reflex
- Non-Speech Intraoral Air Pressure
- Vowle Prolongation
- Speech Intraoral Air Pressure
- Isolated Word Production
- Speech Production
Reduction of Pharyngeal Reflex
Resonation
Reduction of gag reflex
Non-Speech Intraoral Air Pressure
Resonation
Improve velopharyngeal valving
Increase intraoral air pressure generating capability
Vowel Prolongation
Resonation
Improve Velopharyngeal closure when mechanism is stressed
Speech Intraoral Air Pressure
Resonation
Improve intraoral air pressure generating capability
Isolated Word Productions
Resonation
Stimulating velopharyngeal closure
