Q

Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve can be damaged during?

A

surgery-can be nicked (causing voice loss, paresis/paralysis; which can be temporary…or not), RLN can also be stretched (causing sluggishness)

21
Q

What is the LMN involvement of neurogenic disorders?

A

Flaccidity, weakness, reduced m. contraction, reduced range of motion (ROM)

           - Flaccid Dysarthria
           - VF Paralysis
           - Myasthenia Gravis (MG)
           - Guillaine Barre
22
Q

What is the UMN involvement in neurogenic dysarthrias; specifically Spastic Dysarthria?

A

Spasticity/hypertonicity, strain/strangle, short phonation time, monopitch (CTM controlled by SLN), (uncontrolled mvmt. spasims)
-Spastic Dysarthria

23
Q

What is the UMN involvement in Hypokinetic Dysarthria?

A

Rigidity, Bradykinesia (moving slower), Limited ROM (effecting all m. of the body), Resting Tremor (unintentional)

24
Q

What is the UMN involvement in Hyperkinetic Dysarthria?

A

Uncontrolled Movements & Strain/Strangle (voice quality)

25
Q

What is the UMN involvement in Ataxic Dysarthria?

A

Cerebellar lesion, Prosodic slow down, resonance changes, inarticulation, intoxicated

(drunken speech, approximating but not hitting where they should, cerebellar –>balance, coordination)

26
Q

What is the most common (usual) Mixed Dysarthria?

A
