    Answers to frequently asked SD questions, offered by the National Institute on deafness and Other Communication Disorders (a division of the National Institutes of Health).  
    http://www.nidcd.nih.gov/health/voice/spasdysp.asp
    
    Extractions: Home Health Information Voice, Speech, and Language On this page: Spasmodic dysphonia (or laryngeal dystonia) is a voice disorder caused by involuntary movements of one or more muscles of the larynx or voice box. Individuals who have spasmodic dysphonia may have occasional difficulty saying a word or two or they may experience sufficient difficulty to interfere with communication. Spasmodic dysphonia causes the voice to break or to have a tight, strained or strangled quality. There are three different types of spasmodic dysphonia. Top The three types of spasmodic dysphonia are adductor spasmodic dysphonia, abductor spasmodic dysphonia and mixed spasmodic dysphonia. Top In adductor spasmodic dysphonia, sudden involuntary muscle movements or spasms cause the vocal folds (or vocal cords) to slam together and stiffen. These spasms make it difficult for the vocal folds to vibrate and produce voice. Words are often cut off or difficult to start because of the muscle spasms. Therefore, speech may be choppy and sound similar to stuttering. The voice of an individual with adductor spasmodic dysphonia is commonly described as strained or strangled and full of effort. Surprisingly, the spasms are usually absent while whispering, laughing, singing, speaking at a high pitch or speaking while breathing in. Stress, however, often makes the muscle spasms more severe.

    Extractions: printer friendly DEAFNESS home more about us in your area conditions information ... how you can help search this site The human ear is a very sophisticated sensory organ that performs two functions: hearing and balance. It is probably the most developed sensory system in the human apart from vision. The outer, middle and inner ear, hearing nerve and it's central connections allow us to hear what we want to hear while suppressing what we don't want to and attach meanings so that an appropriate response can be made. Hearing is extremely important for the development of spoken language. Those with a pre-lingual profound hearing loss will not have access to speech sounds and hence will not develop oral language, while those with a severe pre-lingual hearing loss will not develop normal speech. Moderate hearing loss may affect speech and (oral) language development and will have a considerable effect on the mainstream education of children. Mild hearing losses also may affect the ability to learn depending on a number of other factors. The incidence of significant permanent congenital hearing loss is about 1 in 1,000 live births. This almost doubles by the age 10 years because of acquired hearing loss from meningitis, mumps, measles, trauma and other causes. Most congenital hearing losses are due to the malfunction of the inner ear but a few are due to malformation of the middle ear ossicles or the ear canal. If the hearing loss is due to a problem within the inner ear, or occasionally due to abnormalities in the hearing nerve, the term sensorineural hearing loss is used. Hearing loss due to a problem within the middle ear or the outer ear is called a conductive hearing loss while a combination is called a mixed loss.

    Fact sheet covering established aphasia types and therapies, support organizations, and new approaches to evaluation, characterization, and treatment. Published by the National Institute on deafness and Other Communication Disorders.  
    http://www.nidcd.nih.gov/health/voice/adultaphasia.asp
    
    Extractions: Home Health Information Voice, Speech, and Language On this page: Aphasia (uh-fay'-zhuh) is a communication disorder that can affect a person's ability to use and understand spoken or written words. It results from damage to the side of the brain dominant for language. For most people, this is the left side. Aphasia usually occurs suddenly and often results from a stroke or head injury, but it can also develop slowly because of a brain tumor, an infection, or dementia. Top There are many different classification systems for aphasia and many different types of aphasia within each system. Some systems are based primarily on the location of the lesion, while others are based solely on the person's behavior. One system adopted by the National Aphasia Association divides aphasia into two broad categories: fluent and non-fluent aphasia. People with fluent aphasia have problems understanding spoken and written language. This type is also known as sensory, posterior, or Wernicke's aphasia. People with non-fluent aphasia have difficulty communicating orally and in writing. This type of aphasia is also called motor, anterior, or Broca's aphasia. Within the non-fluent category is the most severe type, called global aphasia. People with this type have difficulty both expressing and understanding written and oral communication.
