More About This Product

The Source for Dysarthria, 2nd Ed. Nancy B. Swigert  This new edition provides a refresher on the neurology of dysarthria as well as current information and lots of helpful tools for assessment, treatment planning, and treatment techniques. The approach is organized using listening skills to help make decisions about diagnosis and treatment (in contrast to using instrumental assessment). The information helps understand the interrelationships among respiration, phonation, resonance, articulation, and prosody; determine possible causes for the observed symptoms; incorporate long-term goals of intelligibility, comprehensibility, efficiency, and naturalness. The author explains the intricacies of dysarthria evaluation and gives guidelines for a differential diagnosis. A description of each type of dysarthria includes: possible medical diagnoses, associated neurological symptoms and reflexes, typical patient complaints, tasks to help distinguish the particular type of dysarthria. Updates in this edition include the latest information on: oral-motor exercises what they do or don t do for improved speech intelligibility, instrumentation, measuring outcomes of intelligibility, comprehensibility, and efficiency, treatment activities for comprehensibility and efficiency, coding and billing for treatment of dysarthria. Includes FREE CD of 120 additional printable pages with evaluation tools and therapy activities.
