Oral Motor - Exam I

neuroanamtomy, dsyarthrias, respiration, phonation

QuestionAnswer
Major anatomical levels of the brain Supratentorial, posterior Fossa (infratentorial), spinal, peripheral
Supratentorial Boundaries above the tentorium cerebelli membrane upper border of posterior fossa, cerebellum seperates anterior, middle fossae and posterior fossa
Supratentorial includes cerebral hemisphere (frontal, temporal, parietal, occipital lobe pairs basal ganglia, thalamus, hypothalamus Cranial nerve I (olfactory) and II (optic)
supratentorial possible motor speech disorders AOS, Dysarthrias - spastic, unilateral UMN, hypokinetic, hyperkinetic
Posterior Fossa Level Boundaries infratentorial, below tentorium cerebelli
Posterior Fossa includes brainstem - pons, medulla, and midbrain cerebellum origins of Cranial nerves III - XII
Posterior Fossa Motor speech disorders spastic, unilteral UMN, hyperkinetic, ataxic, flaccid dysarthria
Spinal level boundaries foramen magnum
spinal level includes vertebral column - 7 cervical, 12 thoracic, 5 lumbar 31 pairs spinal nerves - dorsal/posterior roots = sensory - ventral/anterior roots = motor
peripheral nerves includes spinal nerve and cranial nerves serving speech
speech production occurs from complex interaction of cognitive, linguistic and motor processes
MSD are speech disorders resulting from impairments in planning and execution of neuromotor control
dysarthria is marked by impaired execution resulting from abnormalities in strength, steadines, tone, or accuracy of movements required for control of the respiratory, phonatory, resonatory, articulatory and prosodic aspects of speech production
Pathophysiologic disturbances are due to CNS/PNS abnormalities and reflect weakness, spasticity, incoordination, involuntary movements; or excessive, reduced, or vairables muscle tone of the speech musculature
need to take speech production that we hear and evaluate the subsystems (respiration, phonation, resonance, articulation, prosody) for strength, range, steadiness, tone, and accuracy
Apraxia of Speech neurologic speech disorder caused by impaired planning/programming sensorimotor commands needed to direct movements of phonetically and prosodically standard speech
ideation begin with thoughts, feeling and emotions
linguistic processes retrieve words from storage and perform phonologic encoding and assemble syntactic frame
motor planning intended message is organized for nueromuscular execution
neuromuscular execution execution involves direct activation of motor neurons, muscle contraction, and movement. CNS & PNS combine to regulate and execute all of the processes by which motor plan results in
neuromotor signal includes CNS, PNS, basal ganglia, propriceptive and tactile sensory, descendign motor tracts and cerebellar control circuits
prevelance of acquired communication disorders that fall in neurological domain 41%
Comprehension involves intelligibility - speech signal only comprehensbility - info independent of the speech signal, context communication conditions - complexity of message both conceptually and linguistically and adversity of listening conditions
Clinical Process of speech disorders 1. identify the perspectives 2. Identify treatment candidates 3. setting treatment goals 4. Assessing treatment efficacy
World Health Organization - International Classification of Functioning includes Body Structure Body Function Activity Participation Environmental factors

AIDS measures intelligiibiltiy of single word intelligibility of sentences speaking rate (on sentence task) communication efficiency ratio intelligible word per minute/190WPM
Tally for Windows Computerized measurement of habitual speaking rate. reading passages aloud
Pacer for Windows standard passages and sentences for computerized test
typical adult speaking rates paragraph out loud 160-180 wpm sentences 190 wpm conversation - highly variable
naturalness/prosody the extent to which speech conforms to a listener's standards of rate rhythm intonation and stress patterning
impairment assessment - functional components approach what aspects of the speech motor activity are impaired? how have weakness, slowness, incoordination or abnormal tone affected speech?
oral peripheral exam assess structure assess non-speech movement assess speech (like) movement assess movement during speech
subsystem impairment respiration phonation velopharyngeal function oral articulation
Standarized tests used Iowa Oral Pressure Instrument Experimental Phonetic Intelligibility test Phoneme indentification test optical motion capture Electromagnetic Articulography
purposes of assessment screening - detect or confrim problem differential diagnosis specify severity and prognosis plan treatment measure changethat occurs as a result of treament
CAS - Child Apraxia of Speech speech disorder due to delays or deviances in those processes involved in planning and programming movement sequences for speech
dysarthria disrupted or distorted oral communication due to paralysis, weakness, abnormal tone or incoordination of the muscles used in speech
