Q

What are some of the nonspeech characteristics present in Hypokinetic Dysarthria?

A

tremor at rest

reduced range of motion during AMRs

masked or expressionless facial expression

19
Q

Match the speech characterstics found in Hypokinetic Dysarthria:

A. Respiration Imprecise consonants

B. Phonation Aphonia in connected speech

C. Resonance Reduced loudness/monoloudness

D. Articulation Mild Hypernasality

A

Respiration - reduced loudness/monoloudness

Phonation - hoarseness, breathiness, monopitch, lowered pitch

Resonance - mild hypernasality

Articulation - imprecise consonants, rapid/blurred AMRs, repeated phonemes at beginning of words

20
Q

The prosody of a person with Hypokinetic Dysarthria you are likely to see:

A

inappropriate silences, short rushes of speech, increased overall rate

21
Q

What is palilalia?

A

The repetition of utterances

22
Q

Hyperkinetic Dysarthria can manifest in any or all of the areas of speech: articulation, resonance, phonation, respiration, and prosody. Yet its most prominent effect happens in:

A

Prosody

23
Q

Hyperkinetic Dysarthria happens due to:

A

excessive activity in dopaminergic pathways

24
Q

Match the type of Dyskinesia based on description:

A. Chorea Abnormal posture due to excessive
co-contraction

B. Myoclonus Rapid, involuntary, random, purposeless
movements of a body part

C. Dystonia Involuntary single or repetitive jerks
rhythmic (sometimes arrythmic)

A

Chorea - rapid, involuntary, random, purposeless movements of a body part

Myoclonus - involuntary single or repetitive jerks
rhyhtmic (sometimes arrythmic)

Dystonia - abnormal posture due to excessive co-contraction

25
Q

Tics are:

A

rapid, stereotyped, patterned movement

26
Q

Slow, writhing, purposeless movements are descriptions for:

A

Athetosis

27
Q

Individuals with Hyperkinetic Dysarthria have tremors that affect all muscles of speech, but is frequently restricted to the:

*Hint 89%

A

False

unknown etiologies

29
Q

True or False

The oral mech for a person with Hyperkinetic Dysarthria may appear normal, but may manifest through involuntary movements

A

True

30
Q

Dystonia and Chorea share similar nonspeech characteristics, but one trait makes them different

A

Chorea - prevalence of relatively fast involuntary movements

Dystonia - prevalence of relatively slow involuntary movements
