Health Topics A-Z Search 1Up Health Speech disorders Information Speech disorders Causes, Incidence, and Risk Factors Alternative names : Articulation deficiency, Dysfluency, Voice disorders Definition : A group of disorders that result in impaired or ineffective communication. Also see speech impairment Causes, Incidence, and Risk Factors Speech is one of the primary ways we communicate with our environment. It is also an effective way to monitor normal growth and development as well as identify potential problems. Dysfluencies are rhythm disorders that are usually characterized by the repetition of a sound, word, or phrase. Stuttering is, perhaps, the most serious dysfluency. Articulation deficiencies are sound that are made incorrectly or inappropriately. Voice disorders involve differences in the quality, pitch, and loudness of the sound. There are many potential causes of speech impairment the most common is mental retardation hearing impairment ADD learning disabilities autism schizophrenia cerebral palsy cleft palate vocal cord injury disorders of the palate cri-du-chat syndrome Gilles de la Tourette syndrome Delayed speech development is one of the common symptoms of developmentally delayed children. It occurs from 5 to 10% of all children. Males are three to four times as likely to experience speech disorders as females.

82. The Voice Oriented Examination - Disease Classification Of Speech Disorders speech disorders. An admittedly incomplete list of speech disorders, butones that show up in my practice as possible voice disorders. CNS. http://www.voicedoctor.net/diagnose/speech.html

Disorders of voice speech A classification scheme for disorders of Speech Speech is different from voice. This is an important but often missed distinction. Voice is the vibrating sound made by blowing air through your vocal folds. The sound is not being modified on an ongoing basis by the upper airway tract. If the vocal folds could be separated from your throat, tongue, nasal passages etc. we would only hear an unadulterated buzz. However, the upper airway cavities add resonance and, thus, character to the sound. As long as the sound is not being actively manipulated by the upper airway, an abnormality of this vibrating sound would be a voice disorder. Speech is any buzzing sound that is continuously being modified. Thus an electrolarynx or a pair of vocal folds can be functioning quite well, but if the tongue or palate do not move appropriately, the perceived disorder is one of speech and not voice. If one accepts this distinction, then testing for a voice disorder by listening to running or conversational speech adds a significant amount of noise and haziness to the diagnostic process and makes discerning which type of vocal disorder is present, extremely difficult. Listening to pure tones under different settings of pressure, loudness and pitch should be adequate to diagnose or characterize a vocal disorder. The abnormality or disease process will be traced to the larynx, vocal folds themselves, or the manipulation of the vocal folds. A speech disorder will not become apparent until word manipulations take place. A disorder of speech will be an incorrect production of vowels and consonants. The cause of a speech disorder will be found in the tongue, lips, palate, or nose - or the central nervous system manipulation of these structures. It will not be found in the voice box or larynx.

ALS News Center Main August 20, 2002 Living with ALS 'Relay Service' helps those with speech disorders August 19, 2002 Monday, ALL EDITIONS SECTION: HEALTH; FORUM FOR THE DISABLED; Pg. C3 LENGTH: 757 words BYLINE: Sharon Latka-Davis Bob Segalman knows the frustrations of not being able to communicate easily on the telephone with colleagues, students, friends and family. Mr. Segalman, who works for the California Department of Rehabilitation, has cerebral palsy that affects his speech. About 13 years ago he came up with a solution- Speech to Speech. At that time, he chaired the California Relay Service Advisory Committee, which required him to be in contact with many deaf people using the TTY relay system. ''When I called the TTY relay using the voice line, I discovered that most of the operators understood me. People with excellent hearing have a good chance of understanding many speech disabilities,'' said Mr. Segalman, who holds a doctorate and is a professor. ''That gave me the idea that a service which 'revoiced' the utterances of people with speech disabilities would enable them to use the telephone,'' he said. In the mid-1990s, the professor's idea became a reality when he introduced a telephone relay service in California to assist those with speech disorders.

Welcome to SpeechSense.com, an unparalleled internet resource in the field of speech/communication and sensory processing. SpeechSense.com is like no other site in its field. Developed by certified speech and language pathologist Lisa Nelson, M.A., CCC/SLP, SpeechSense.com will provide thorough, sensitive and insightful information on speech and communication, sensory processing skills, and the use of sensory information to build adaptive behaviors such as responding, interacting, learning and communicating. In particular, the ways in which various disabilities such as autism affect sensing and communicating will be dealt with in depth, using a clear, "common sense" approach. The comprehensive resources on this site are regularly updated. In so doing, the nature of normal and disordered communication processes are thoroughly explored and developed, and problem-solving strategies are proposed for both the individuals in question, and their caretakers. Online access to the quarterly SpeechSense.com Newsletter is also available. Designed for for field experts, families of individuals with developmental disabilities, caregivers and researchers alike, SpeechSense.com News

Core Curriculum Syllabus DISORDERS OF SPEECH AND SWALLOWING SPEECH Normal Mechanisms Phonation-the production of sound by the larynx Requirements Approximation of vocal folds Forced expiration (adequate breath support) Passive vibration of free mucosal edge of vocal fold Pitch determined by the fundamental frequency of vocal fold vibration Dependent on vocal fold length and tension Controlled by "pre-phonatory tuning" and auditory feedback Intensity is dependent on subglottic pressure, which is related to: Expiratory flow Glottic aperture area Resonance-the modulation of sound by passage through body tissues. This can be voluntarily modified by movements of the tongue, palate and pharynx, as well as by changing the position and shape of the larynx. It may also be altered by pathology. Articulation-the formation of words is accomplished by voluntary movements of the upper aerodigestive tract (lips, teeth, tongue, palate, etc.) to produce: Unvoiced consonants The "shaping" of phonation into vocalizations

89. Motor Speech Disorders Laboratory Paula A Motor speech disorders Laboratory Paula A. Square. Extension of this work to thedisorders of orobuccofacial apraxia and apraxia of speech is planned. http://www.library.utoronto.ca/speech-language-pathology/lrndept/Labs/motor.htm

Motor Speech Disorders Laboratory Paula A. Square Dr. Square’s research focuses on motor speech disorders, particularly apraxia of speech, and on the interface between language formulation and motor speech planning. Studies of both adults and children are on-going. Two pathological populations with verbal production disorders are studied: children with moderate to severe developmental speech disorders and verbal expressive language disorders and adults with acquired aphasia and co-existing motor speech disorders. The nature(s) of the verbal production disorder, linguistic and motoric, and the interaction of these two domains are of primary concern. Studies of the assessment and treatment of the disorders is a second line of research. With her colleague, Deborah Hayden, a hierarchical model of disordered speech motor control has been developed. The model allows for the characterization of aberrant motor control at one or more of three levels: physiological support for speech, focal oro-motor control and speech movement sequencing. The existence and nature of motor speech control deficits at these distinct levels has been studied in both populations and the theoretical model has been validated using behavioural data. Validation studies using kinematic data are planned. The aim of this line of work is to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of clinical interventions. A third line of research is in collaboration with Drs. Eric Roy and Sandra Black and focuses on the conceptual basis of limb praxis. This work is being undertaken in the Neurocognitive Laboratories at Sunnybrook Hospital and is funded by the Ontario Mental Health.
