Apraxia vs dysarthri
Difference between apraxia of speech and dysarthria
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Client has an absence of significant paresis, paralysis, ataxia, incoordination of the speech muscles | apraxia of speech |
| The client has little difficulty with involuntary motor acts like chewing swallowing, sucking, and licking | apraxia of speech |
| Client has inconsistency in articulation performance and has difficulty in predicting errors. | apraxia of speech |
| The most common types of articulation errors with this disorder are substitutions and repetitions, and occasional metathetic errors | apraxia of speech |
| As speaking rate is increased, articulation is improved | apraxia of speech |
| The client produces more accurate speech production in spontaneous speech, and does more poorly when imitating or doing reading activities. | apraxia of speech |
| There is a discrepancy between voluntary, purposeful, and spontaneous reflexive performance | apraxia of speech |
| The prosody of speech is affected by repetitions, hesitations, and groping for the correct articulation places. | apraxia of speech |
| As length and complexity of words increases the articulation performance decreases | apraxia of speech |
| Results of motor programming deficiency | apraxia of speech |
| Oral nonverbal apraxia are often present | apraxia of speech |
| Clients have paresis, paralysis, ataxia, incoordination, and involuntary movements. | dysarthria |
| Clients have difficulty with chewing, swallowing, licking, sucking. | dysarthria |
| Speech errors are consistent and predictable | dysarthria |
| Clients show little difficulty with speech initiations, selection or phonemes, and sequencing phonemes | dysarthria |
| Articulation errors are mostly distortions | dysarthria |
| The more speech rate is increases, the less intelligible speech is. | dysarthria |
| Speech production accuracy does not very between spontaneous speech, reading, or imitating activities. | dysarthria |
| Accuracy of articulation does not vary | dysarthria |
| Speech is often slow and labored showing strain and tension | dysarthria |
| Articulation performance is not affected by word length. | dysarthria |
| Results of motor execution deficiency | dysarthria |
| Client doesn't have oral nonverbal apraxia | dysarthria |
