- 66. REPETITION • Single words • Sentence with min 3 words • Non-sense words: a word or sentense in another language • Nb: no.Of words should not exceed pts attention span
- 67. NAMING • Reasonably unfamiliar objects • If familiar object is used name the unfamiliar parts. Eg.Nib of pen, locket of a chain
- 70. DIAGNOSING APHASIA’S 1. FLUENT OR NON FLUENT?? 2. How’s the COMPREHENSION?? 3. How’s the REPETATION??
- 73. Aphasia rules • FLUENT APHASIA’S: wernicke’s, transcortical sensory, conduction & anomic • NON-FLUENT: broca’s, transcortical motor, global ,transcortical mixed • COMPREHENSION INTACT: broca’s ,transcortical motor, conduction, anomic • REPETITION INTACT: all transcortical aphasia’s & anomic • (Brocas + wernicke’s) PROBLEMS- global • (Brocas + wernicke’s) SOLUTIONS-conduction
- 74. Points to ponder…. BROCA’S APHASIA • AGRAMMATISM hallmark • Apraxia of speech • Comprehension is preserved???(eg. Ravana was killed by Ram) • True Broca’s –anterior language areas • Damage restricted to Broca’s l/t- APHEMIA WERNICKE’S APHASIA • FLUENT PARAPHASIC SPEECH(neologism- jargon/devil’s speech) • Involvement of all three posterior language systems. • Unaware of the problem
- 75. • BROCA’S + WERNICKES • Spontaneous speech , naming & repetition limited to a single PERSEVERSTIVE word • Non-fluent GLOBAL PAHASIA • Wernicke’s with relatively preserved comprehension • TIP OF THE TONGUE anomia • Arcuate fasciculus?? • PERISYLVIAN AREA(PHONEMIC/LEXICAL RETRIEVAL AREA) CONDUCTION APHASIA Aphasia: A clinical perspective DF Benson, DF Benson, A Ardila - 1996
- 77. INTACT REPETITION……… TRANSCORTICAL MOTOR • BROCA’S with preserved repetition • Lesions surrounding Broca’s area TRANSCORTICAL SENSORY • WERNICKE’S with preserved repetition • damage TO THE INTERNAL SEMANTIC SYATEM MIXED TRANSCORTICAL • GLOBAL with intact sentence repetition • Appear Echolalic • Lesions surrounding Broica’a & Wernicke’s but sparing both.(ISOLATION OF SPEECH AREAS)
- 79. PURE WORD DEAFNESS(PWD) • Auditory VERBAL AGNOSIA • Damage To Bilateral auditory phoneme identification system(hence rare) • CAN NOT HEAR WORDS • CAN HEAR non- verbal sounds • Read them & write them too PWD
- 80. APRAXIA OF SPEECH • Slow ,deliberate, effortful, dysprosodic speech • Trying to find the correct pronunciation by trial & error APRAXIA OF SPEECH • Monosyllable repetitions good • Polysyllable impaired • Inconsistent mispronunciation DYSARTHRIA • Word distortion irrespective of length • Mispronunciation is consistent

- 82. READING AND WRITING : ALEXIA and AGRAPHIA • VWFA-visual word form area • Equivalent to Auditory phoneme perception area. • Left occipito-temporal sulcus & left fusiform gyrus.
- 83. VWFA
- 84. Reading with comprehension • Visual information from the left occipital lobe reaches directly the left fusiform gyrus. • From the rt occipital lobe has to cross over to (corpus callosum)reach the left fusiform GYRUS. • ANGULAR GYRUS- interpreetation of visual- verbal materials.
- 85. Reading aloud
- 86. ALEXIA WITHOUT AGRAPHIA • PURE/POSTERIOR ALEXIA • CAN NOT : read and understand • CAN UNDERSTAND: words spelled aloud, written on the palm • Visual function intact(Naming objects) • left occipital lobe with splenium • Left PCA infarcts ALEXIA WITH AGRAPHIA • CENTRAL ALEXIA • Aquired illiteracy • Unable to read or write • Dominant ANGULAR gyrus

- 91. Other alexias SURFACE ALEXIA • Grapheme to phoneme conversion problem • Irregular orthography • CAN read: mint,dog,cat • CAN NOT read: pint, dough, laugh • PARALEXIA(DEEP) • Problem of READIN ALOUD • SEMANTIC paralexia –m.c • Eg: infant read as baby
- 92. Agraphia • anterior(BROCA’s)-agrammatism with spelling mistakes • Posterior(WERNICKE’S)-unintelligible & non- sensical Aphasic agraphia • Correct letters and words • Problem with orientation • eg,. Moving on to the next line, wider space on one side Visuospatial agraphia • Language fromation is correct along with spatial arrangement • Handwriting loses its personal characters. Apraxic agraphia
Notas do Editor
- Ventral part: social cognition DLPFC:selective attention working memory MEDIAL PFC: motivation & initiation
- FDS subcortical dementia. Does not necessarily mean that the lesion has to be in the frontal lobe. Executive function: goal oriented activity thet requires planning,initiation,response inhibition, mental flexibility(SET SHIFTING), working memory and fluency.
- Antisaccades test
- Read the words Read the colours
- Image cam scanner
- Image camscanner
- Comon mistakes performed by pts. Not shifting from numbers
- Levels of increasing difficulty
- Image camscanner
- Bedside testing , 4 dots can be given
- Demonstrate them . Perform it with me..1-2 times…do it on ur own
- Mountain valleys plateau Spirals M & N Mountains & plateaus. No.of mountains can be increased sequentially
- LEFT MEDIAL FRONTAL LOBE
- Mistakes like : they re the same thing,start describing the objects Instead of saying they are fruits they say both are yellow
- IMAGE CAM SCANNER
- Cancel or circle all the c’s
- DEMONSTRATE
- SENSORY MEMORY is the shortest-term element of memory. It is the ability to retain impressions of sensory information after the original stimuli have ended. ... For example, the ability to look at something and remember what it looked like with just a second of observation is an example of sensory memory Working memory: remembering the phone no before dialling or remembering the OTP before entering them
- Filling clerk is the –PFC guides the storage and retrieval of memory Recent memory file cabinet-medial temporal lobe (storage of recent memory) Remote memory-cortex. Long term storage.
- TESTS REGISTRATION
- PROCEDURE FOR STORY RETRIEVAL.
- Lexical morphemes: dog, fast Grammatical morphemes: affix-faster,connectors- neither
- AG-39,SMG-40,PMA-41,WA-22,BA-44,45
- Conventionally means wernickes area. But functional neuroimaging have found otherwise
- Bilateral localization hence difficult to destroy Location and function of the three areas Fusiform gyrus serves as the phoneme perception system for visual language while reading
- Mapping of the phoneme sesequences to their meaning in the internal semantic system Repetition : input from the phoneme perception system directly to the phoneme retrieval system bypassing the internal semsntic system justifying the fact we don’t have to understand words inorder to tepeat them
- Similarly reading aloud involves phoneme percetion visually through the fusiform gyrus(the visual counterpart for the auditory phoneme system) Again this does no require understanding and is lot like repeatition in the circuitry For sponataneous speech retrieval of the word meaning from the semantic system onto the phonological retrieval system Naming also involves a similar path.
- Brocas area is constituted by 44,45, (posterior part of the inferior frontal gyrus)surrounding frontal area , underlying frontal white matter and the caudate nucleus. Exners writing area: posterior part of the middle frontal gyrus
- ABILITY TO UNDERSTAND.
- 3 animals & 3 musical instruments
- Boat,goat, boot,coat,bone,kite
- Naming is impaired in all.
- Mild transient speech disturbance with impaired prosody nd articulatory agility Why is repetition impaired in Broca;s then. Bcoz it’s the final pathwAY for speech output & the articulatory speech agility is impaired here.
- Conduction aphasia: logopenic variant of the PPA Phonemic/lexical retrieval area Hence comprehensiin is preserved
- Where is echolalia seen?
- Conventionally means wernickes area. But functional neuroimaging have found otherwise
- ALSO important in color integration and facial recognition.
- Visual information from the left occipital lobe reaches directly the left fusiform gyrus. From the rt occipital lobe has to cross over to (corpus callosum)reach the left fusiform GYRUS. ANGULAR GYRUS- interpreetation of visual-verbal materials.
- paralexia
- Copies written language as if it was a foreign language. Color naming impaired
- Explaination:
- Like wernicke’s where reading is impaired more than auditory perception
- Aquired abnormalities of writing: agraphia
- They have been asked to describe the cookie jar picture.
