speech disorders Flashcards
what does language include
what words mean How to make new words (friend-ly) Put words to make sentences word combos for the best situations both verbal and nonverbal
language vs speech
Language: set of rules
Speech: spoken language
how many muscles are in speech
100 orofacial, laryngeal, pharyngeal, and respiratory muscles
what is needed for articulation
Adjust shape and degree of constriction of mouth, pharynx and nasal cavities as sound and air rpessure pass through
what is articualtion
speech sound production
what are speech sound disorders
Developmental, phonological compensatory , and placement/phonetic articlation disorders
what are the common articulation errors
Substitutions
Omissions
Distortions
Obligatory vs active
what are phonemes
Speech sounds
what is involved in the place, manner. and voicing of phonemes
- Bilabials, Lingual-alveolar, velars
- stops, fricatives, sibilants, affricates
- oral vs nasal consonants
- liquids and glides
- voices vs voiceless sounds
what does a speech language pathologist do
Provides treatment of SSD by improving articulation of individual sounds or reduce erros in production of sounds
what is articualtion treatment do for SSD
Demonstrating how to produce a sound correctly
learning to recognize which sounds are correct or incorrect
practicing sounds in different words
what is Phonological process treatment do for SSD
teaching rules of speech to individuals to help them say worlds correctly
what does treatment of SSD emphasize
auditory discrimination traninng
does oral-motor therapy work for speech
not evidence backed
what is phonation
Sound waves created by vibration of vocal folds
what causes movment of the vocal folds
airflow from lungs and laryngeal muscle contraction
how does phonation occur
Vocal folds adduct
subglottal pressure builds and air flow forces folds apart
vibration begins
ends when breath or abduction occurs
how do kids and adults feel about voice disorders
negative attention and limited participation in activity
incidence rate of pediattric voice disorders
6-23%
what are pediattric voice disorders broadly defined as
Dysphonia
what are the common pediatric vocal pathologies
Infectious Anatomic Ongenital Inflammatory Neoplastic Neuroogic Iatrogenic - vocal nodules - vocal cord cysts - vocal cord paralysis - laryngeal webs - paradoxical vocal fold dysfunction
what is one fo the most common cuases of pediatric dysphonia
Vocal nodules (38-78% of pediatric dysphonia)
what are the symptoms of vocal nodules
Hoarseness breathiness rough and scratchy voice harshness Decreased pitch range throat/ear/neck pain losing voice
treatment for vocal nodules
Behavioral voice treatment (voice therapy)
how to treat vocal fold cysts
Surgical removal
voice therapy
how to treat a laryngeal web
Surgical resection (multiple)
what does voice therapy include
vocal hygein
Worksheets
reducing abusive behavor (yelling)
what makes voice therapy hard for kids
Need to self monitor
- harder with behavior, congitive, and attention limitations
what are the types of Motor speech disorders
Dysarthria
Childhood apraxia of speech
what is Dysarthria
Neurologic speach disorders resulting from abnormalities in the strength, speed, range, steadiness, tone, or accuracy of movement
when does Dysarthria in children show
- Usually before able to speak if Congenital
- Acquired showed significat variation depending on age of onset
- usually after the acquisition of some speech language skills
why is Pediatric Dysarthria hard to diagnose
due to emerging language
characteristics of Dysarthria
difficult with spech and accuracy of artiulatory movements reduced loudness dysphonia hypernasality abnormal rate abnormal breaths bad feeding/swallowing problems, drools
symptoms of Athetoid (dyskinetic) Cerebral palsy from Dysarthria
slow rate, dyshythmia with in appropriate voice stages and reduced stress
- more atric errors
