Strokes
Two types of CVA
What are ischemic and hemorrhagic
The lesion causing ___ aphasia is to the entire perisylvian region, ___, Wernicke's area, the internal capsule, ___ ___, ___, and middle cerebral artery.
The lesion of GLOBAL aphasia is to the entire perisylvian region, Broca's area, Wernicke's area, the internal capsule, basal ganglia, thalamus, and middle cerebral artery.
What is global Broca's area, basal ganglia, and thalamus
Acquired impairment of reading
What is alexia
Damage in multiple sites, especially in the angular gyrus and second temporal gyrus can result in ___ aphasia. The key thing here is persistent severe ___ __.
What are Anomic/Nominal Aphasia and confrontation naming
Impaired receptive language, Perseverative semantic paraphasias, Normal articulation, Hypophonic voice, Intact repetition, and Intact grammar are indicative of this type of aphasia
What is thalamic aphasia
Also known as dead tissue or dying of tissue
What is necrosis
Muteness, akinesia, echolalia, reduced spontaneous speech, telegraphic speech, hemiparesis, and right neglect may be effects of this type of aphasia
What is Transcortical Motor Aphasia (TMA)
What is Agraphia
Echolalic behavior, semantic and neologistic paraphasias, and good automatic speech once initiated could be an indicator of this type of aphasia
What is Transcortical Sensory Aphasia (TSA)
Occlusion brings damage to the striatum that may also disrupt blood flow to primary language cortices to create aphasia is indicative of what
What is Basal Ganglia Aphasia/Striatocapsular Aphasia
No oxygen in the brain
What is anoxia
Lesions to Broca's area, the lower portion of the ___ strip, anterior ___ ___, and ____ ___ tracts can result in ___ aphasia.
Lesions to Broca's area, the lower portion of the motor strip, anterior language cortex, and descending pyramidal tracts can result in Broca's aphasia.
What are the motor, language cortex, and descending pyramidal
Things that can be remembered such as the birthday song and counting
What is automatic language
What is the left parietal lobe, superior marginal gyrus, inferior parietal gyrus, and articulate fasciculus
aphasia occurs due to a right hemisphere (RH) brain lesion in right-handed individuals (Kim, Yang, Paik, 2013). The right-hand remains unaffected, and therefore, the individuals writing skills are intact. Symptoms of CA may include those of MTA, in some cases, and transient fluent aphasia in others.
What is crossed aphasia
Three types of ischemic stroke
What are transient, embolic, and thrombotic
If a client presents with echolalia, the ability to produce automatic speech, limited verbal productions, and has had many embolic strokes they may have this type of aphasia
What is Mixed Transcortical Motor (MTA)
Lack of grammar by omitting function words
What is agrammatism
A person who recently had a stroke has also been diagnosed with Gerstmann's syndrome. This could be a key indicator that the person has this type of aphasia
What is Transcortical Sensory Aphasia (TSA)
Transcortical Sensory Aphasia is said to resemble this subcortical aphasia
What is thalamic aphasia
Build-up on the arterial wall of fatty substances
What is atherosclerosis
A person presents to the clinic feeling severely depressed after their stroke. Their speech has been affected and they also suffer from dysarthria and apraxia of speech. This person is said to have this type of aphasia
Saying a word repeatedly and sometimes inappropriately
What is perseveration
A recent stroke patient shows weakness in the ability to pucker the lips and control some facial muscles. She has been diagnosed with conduction aphasia. This may mean the person has this associated condition
What is buccal facial apraxia
Transcortical Motor Aphasia is said to resemble this subcortical aphasia
What is basal ganglia/striatocapsular aphasia
