Q

Participation restrictions are always related to speech activity limitations. T or F?

A

False; they are not always related.

There are also cognitive, linguistic and physical barriers associated with neurological disease. (pg. 300)

speech and language problems, the child exhibits slow, writhing involuntary movements.You correctly diagnose that the child has which of the following?

Athetoid CP

19
Q

You have been referred a 75-year-old woman by a neurologist who suspects hypokinetic
dysarthria in her and has requested a speech evaluation and diagnosis of her communication
difficulties. To confirm a diagnosis of hypokinetic dysarthria, you will be especially alert to which of
the following?

A.
Symptoms of Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, or Pick’s disease, evidence of damage to the basal ganglia,
mask-like face, slowness of movement, micrographic writing, monopitch and imprecise articulation
among other symptoms
B. Bilateral facial weakness with less severe lower face weakness, perhaps normal jaw strength,
hyperactive gag reflex, hyperadduction of vocal folds, short phrases, continuous breathy voice, and
predominant hypernasality, among other symptoms
C. Fasciculations and fibrillations of muscles, progressive muscle weakness with use and
recovery with rest, nasal emissions, harsh voice, monopitch, and monoloudness, among other
symptoms
D. Evidence of cerebellar damage; rotated or tilted head posture; over- and undershooting of
movement targets; jerky, inaccurate, and halting movement; prolonged phonemes and intervals
between words or syllables; and impression of drunken speech; among other symptoms

A

Symptoms of Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, or Pick’s disease, evidence of damage to the basal ganglia,
mask-like face, slowness of movement, micrographic writing, monopitch and imprecise articulation
among other symptoms
