Q

you are an SLP who is seeing identical twin sisters, age 3, both with severe receptive and expressive language impairment. in conversation with their parents, they bring up the question of whether the girl’s difficulty with language could have a genetic cause. you personally have no prior training in genetics. why should you, as an SLP, be interested in learning more about genetics.

A

the children could have a genetic syndrome, and the language problems are part of the syndrome, SLPs should obtain training in genetics because they have the skills to recognize deficits in communication

77
Q

you are an SLP who is seeing identical twin sisters, age 3, both with severe receptive and expressive language impairment. in conversation with their parents, they bring up the question of whether the girl’s difficulty with language could have a genetic cause. you personally have no prior training in genetics. which of the following defines the precision medicine initiative?

A
  • the project will involve large numbers of people to provide health information
  • the goal is to create a better understanding of the interaction between genetics, lifestyle, and environment
  • the project aims to improve health outcomes by making it possible to design targeted and preventative interventions
78
Q

Jamie, a 6 year old girl is seen by an SLP for a comp speech and language assessment. standardized testing shows expressive and receptive language skills below expectation. her speech sounds hypernasal and breathy, and standard artic testing shows some unusual speech sound substitutions like [m]/p and [n]/t. when jamie walked into the room, a slow labored gait was noted. jamie did an MRI scan at age 2 years and 4 months. what, if any, red flags are there that jamie may have a syndrome of genetic etiology.

A

finding motor impairments across domains as well as, language impairments in the same child could point to a genetic or chromosomal cause

79
Q

angelica, 5 years old, is receiving speech therapy to address speech errors related to her repaired cleft palate. none of her biological relatives have a history of cleft palate, not even her twin brother. angelica’s medical history is significant for her surgery as a newborn. the most likely cause of the clefting is:

A

missing a small piece of chromosome 22

80
Q

you are an SLP working in an elementary school. on your caseload are three children, a 3 year old, boy, a kindergarten girl, and a boy in 3rd grade. they all have CAS. Jesse and amelia have an older sister who never had any speech or language issues, and marcus has an older brother who also never had any speech or language issues. the affected children have no additional diagnoses. would you classify the speech and language delays as syndromic or nonsyndromic?

A

nonsyndromic because CAS is occurring without any other diagnoses. the delays in expressive language are often seen in children with CAS

81
Q

what is the most likely explanation of why some of the children from the same extended family have a similar type of speech disorder?

A

with several close relatives affected, the best explanation is a genetic change that was inherited

82
Q

you are an SLP in a private practice and are seeing a 4-year old boy with a severe speech disorder. his mother asks you what her changes are of having another child with the same disorder. your best response is the following:

A

“if you would like, we can meet to discuss potential red flags and create a referral to a genetics professional for a more in-depth consultation

83
Q

you are an SLP who is seeing two brothers, one with autism and the other with mostly pragmatic language delays. their parents came to talk to you about the possibility that genetics may explain both boy’s struggles. In your conversation, you discover that there may be a family history for autism. what is your best plan of action?

A

you ask questions about the family history, draw a three generation diagram, and look for biological relatives who have or who have had any kind of psychiatric or developmental diagnosis

84
Q

Q3: You are an SLP who is seeing children from two families that caught your attention. In the first family, you are seeing two siblings, Zach and Zoe, with dyslexia and your family interview showed that one cousin and one grandparent but none of the parents have dyslexia. In the second family, Sondra, a girl with hearing impairment, has a mother with hearing impairment, and the mother reports that one of her two brothers and her mother also have hearing impairment. Sondra’s brother does not have hearing impairment.

Which of the following statements are true regarding these two families? (Select two choices)

A
  • the first family could have some genetic risks for dyslexia but if there are several genes involved, plus some other factors, the dyslexia does not always get inherited with a clear pattern
  • in the second family, the pattern is clearly genetic, and it is autosomal dominant
85
Q

you are asked to see a 5 year old child for an evaluation of speech, resonance, and velopharyngeal function. he has no history of cleft palate but has always had “nasal” speech, according to the mother. two year previously, when he lived in another city, he participated in a videofluoroscopy speech study. According to the report, the study showed good velar and lateral pharyngeal wall movement, but incomplete velopharyngeal closure during speech. During swallowing, however, the child was able to achieve complete velopharyngeal closrure consistently. in your assessment, you find that the child has normal articulation placement but that resonance is hypernasal

A

referral to craniofacial surgeon for consideration of surgical intervention

86
Q

a child presents to you with a history of cerebral palsy. in your assessment, you find that he has very hypernasal speech but essentially normal articulation placement. based on his history and the characteristics of his speech, what would be an appropriate diagnosis?

A

velopharyngeal incompetence

87
Q

you are evaluating a child with abnormal resonance. in your assessment, you note that there are often m/b and n/d substitutions. you also note that, in connected speech, the /n/ sound is frequently used as a substitution for siblants. what diagnosis does this suggest?

A

hypernasality

88
Q

you are asked to see a 12-year-old boy for an evaluation. his mother reports that he is “lazy with his speech” and that he mumbles all the tome. she thinks it is because he is going through puberty. in your assessment, you note abnormal resonance and low volume. an intraoral examination reveals very large tonsils that almost touch in the midline. based on this history and your examination, what type of resonance disorder does this child demonstrate?

A

pharyngeal cul-de-sac resonance

89
Q

your patient has a history of cleft lip and palate. he is 17 years old and has significant maxillary retrusion with midface deficiency. as a result, he has a class III maloclusion with anterior crossbite. what type of abnormal resonance is common due to midface retrusion.

A

hyponasality

90
Q

your patient has a history of cleft palate. a recent nasopharyngoscopy evaluation showed a very large velopharyngeal opening during speech. what type of nasal emission would you expect with a large opening?

A

inaudible nasal emission

91
Q

you are working with a patient who has had a pharyngeal flap for correction of velopharyngeal insufficiency. although resonance is now normal, he still uses some compensatory productions. In particular, you notice that he coarticulates a compensatory production with oral plosives. which of the following compensatory productions would he most likely coarticulate with oral plosives?

A

glottal stop

92
Q
A
