Contemporary Approaches to the Management of Post-stroke Apraxia of Speech.
This article focuses on these recent advances. Studies investigating acoustic evaluation of AOS will be reviewed, as well as those that have considered the extent that neuroimaging can guide clinical decision making. Developments in the treatment of AOS will also be discussed. Although more research is needed regarding the use of these methods in everyday clinical practice, the studies reviewed here show promise as emerging tools for the management of AOS.

Dysarthria following Stroke.
Abstract Dysarthria is a common consequence of stroke and can have a detrimental influence on communication and quality of life. Speech-language pathologists (SLPs) play an important role in the evaluation and rehabilitation of stroke survivors who present with dysarthria. An understanding of the physiologic reason behind the altered speech characteristics, such as weakness or incoordination, can facilitate differential diagnosis, guide evaluation strategies, and influence treatment approaches. An initial comprehensive speech evaluation is comprised of examination of the speech mechanism, screening of speech subsy...

Behaviorally-Oriented Intensive Aphasia Program: Collaboration Leads to Optimal Outcomes
Semin Speech Lang. 2022 Sep 12. doi: 10.1055/s-0042-1756272. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAphasia is an acquired disorder affecting all language components across modalities. While common therapeutic approaches can result in some improvements, multiple studies establish that intensive therapeutic interventions are most effective; however, these approaches are not well defined. In addition, behaviorally-oriented approaches have been shown to be effective for other conditions, but have not yet been introduced to the treatment of aphasia. The purpose of the current study was to examine the efficacy of a novel, behaviorally-o...
