    Extractions: Home About Us Our Staff Speech Disorders ... Other Links Speech Disorders As parents, we realize that when a two-year-old has something to say, he expects to be understood! And when he is not understood, the situation can become ugly very quickly! The fact is, children, even as young as birth, are equipped with a unique need and desire to link up with the world! It is this drive for social interaction that is the basis for all communication. Long before a child begins to speak, his mother learns to recognize that he cries differently when he is frightened than when he is hungry. When he is happy, he smiles and looks for his mother’s voice when she is in the room. He studies her face while she feeds him and learns very quickly that she is the person who comes when he cries out for her. Within a few months, these first subtle communication skills soon give way to intentional vocal play (babbling) and he begins to reach for people and favorite toys or push away objects he doesn’t want. What a special day it is when he looks at mom or dad and finally says “dada” or “mama!” While it is an easy concept to recognize these first words as the beginning of speech, it is somewhat more complicated to understand that the beginning of communication actually occurred with that first eye contact at birth. For without all those months of “communicating” without words, the words themselves cannot develop.

    Extractions: Resources According to the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA), a language disorder is an impairment in comprehension use of the spoken, written, or other symbol system. Speech disorders affect the language and mechanics, the content of speech, or the function of language in communication. Because speech disorders affect a person's ability to communicate effectively, every aspect of the person's life can be affected, for example, the person's ability to make friends, and to communicate at school or at work. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig's disease, is a neurological disease that attacks the nerve cells in the brain that control voluntary muscles. ALS causes motor neurons to die so that the brain and spinal cord are unable to send messages to the muscles telling them to move. Because the muscles are not functioning, they begin to atrophy. Muscles in the face and jaw can be affected, and thereby affecting a person's speech. Aphasia Aphasia results from damage to the language centers of the brain, which affects a person's ability to communicate through speaking, listening, and writing.

    Professional Home Page News book review. Motor speech disordersDiagnosis and Treatment (2000). By Donald B. Freed. Singular  
    http://professional.asha.org/news/motor_speech_disorders.cfm
    
    Extractions: book review Motor Speech Disorders: Diagnosis and Treatment (2000). Donald Freed remembers from his days in graduate school how confusing and complex the subject of motor speech disorders seemed. Certainly many of us share similar memories. Which parts of the brain or central nervous system are responsible for which motor movements? What do the different forms of dysarthria have in common and what are their differences? How does one structure an assessment to arrive at a differential diagnosis? As graduate students we struggled with each of these questions, and as clinicians we may lack confidence in evaluating and treating our clients with motor speech disorders. In this book, Freed has made it all make sense! The book's organization, as well as its straight-forward language make it a valuable resource for graduate students as well as for practicing clinicians. Following a brief historical review of motor speech disorders, Freed, in Chapter 2, provides a detailed procedure for evaluating motor speech disorders, accompanied by explanations of the rationale for each phase of the evaluation and what one learns from the results. Freed devotes the following chapter to a detailed, yet understandable, explanation of the motor system-its components, structure, and function. Throughout the book, important terms are in bold type, and a glossary with definitions of these terms is provided at the back of the book.

    Extractions: Ask an Attorney Problems communicating effectively and expressing yourself through language can result in serious social interaction difficulties. Typical communication problems include placing words in the wrong sequence such as "I the book need" rather than "I need the book" and associating the wrong words with objects, such as pointing towards a book and saying "I need that radio." Some people with speech disorders may not be capable of communicating at all, while others may not be able to regulate their speech and may continue to talk when it is inappropriate to do so. What do I do Now? As with many personal injury claims, time is critical. Contact an attorney today to protect your rights.

    Extractions: Speech Disorders It is believed that approximately, 60% of classic galactosemic children have speech problems. Problems range from mild to moderate or severe. One type of speech disorder that has been associated with classic galactosemia is apraxia of speech, often referred to as dyspraxia . Dyspraxia is not a developmental delay of speech see footnote . It is considered a "motor speech disorder". Verbal dyspraxia is defined below: Verbal Dyspraxia A sensory motor disorder of articulation characterized by impaired capacity to plan the positioning of speech musculature and muscle movements for the production of speech sounds. While it is primarily an articulation disorder, there are a number of other related communication problems associated with dyspraxia, such as: problems of syntax (word order), language organization, and pragmatics (set of rules governing conversation). ( note-Reading, writing, spelling, and spatial awareness can also be affected. If you suspect that your child has this disorder, or some other speech problem, have your child evaluated as soon as possible. The sooner speech therapy is started for a child who needs it, the better. Hearing tests are usually performed first to rule out any kind of hearing impairment. If your child's hearing has been checked, and a hearing problem has been ruled out as a cause for speech problems, have your child evaluated by a qualified speech pathologist. You may be able to find a qualified speech pathologist through your local school system (early intervention program.) If you suspect dyspraxia, be sure to find a speech language pathologist who is qualified, and has experience with diagnosing and treating a motor speech disorder (or oral motor function disorder). To find out more about dyspraxia and what things to consider in getting a speech evaluation, the following web sites describes much more in detail.

    http://www.d.umn.edu/~mmizuko/2230/msd.htm
    
    Extractions: Definition : A group of speech disorders resulting from disturbances in muscular control-weakness, slowness, or incoordination- of the speech mechanism due to damage to the central or peripheral nervous system or both. The term encompasses coexisting neurogenic disorders of several or all the basic processes of speech: respiration, phonation, resonance, articulation, and prosody (Darley, 1969). Medical dictionary definition: imperfect articulation in speech. Dysarthria refers to a group of disorders rather than a single disorder. It is more appropriate to refer the plural form "dysarthrias" rather than the singular form "dysarthria". Dysarthrias are speech disorders. They should not be confused with language disorders such as aphasia, language of confusion, or language of generalized intellectual impairment. The clinical relevance of this distinction is in patient management. Treatment for dysarthria differs from that employed for language disorders. Dysarthrias result from disruption of muscular control. Due to damage of the CNS or PNS or both. There is some involvement of the basic motor processes used in speech and this results in a movement disorder.
