Speech therapy for patients with a speech disorder in subacute stage
- Klinika rehabilitačního lékařství VFN a 1. LF UK Praha
Patients with acquired speech impairments show either reductions in their phatic functions or impaired motor component of speech
(dysarthria). Speech therapy is provided in various types of rehabilitation centres, including ambulant care units, as early as possible after
stroke or brain injury. A detailed diagnostic survey of speech impairment and patient’s cognitive and motor functions is a prerequisite for
successful therapy. Optimal duration and intensity of speech therapy are essential in setting up an individual rehabilitation programme.
