A phase II randomised controlled trial evaluating the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of an education program on speech-language pathologist' self-efficacy, and self-rated competency for counselling to support psychological wellbeing in people with post-stroke aphasia
CONCLUSIONS: The demonstrated feasibility and preliminary efficacy of this online counseling program warrant a future definitive trial.PMID:36440678 | DOI:10.1080/10749357.2022.2145736

A Pilot Study of the Fluctuating Mental Status Evaluation: A Novel Delirium Screening Tool for Neurocritical Care Patients
ConclusionsIn this pilot study, the FMSE achieved a high sensitivity and specificity in detecting delirium. Follow-up validation studies in a larger more diverse cohort of neurocritical care patients will use score cutoffs of  ≥ 1 as “possible” delirium and ≥ 2 as “probable” delirium.

People with aphasia and their family members proposing joint future activities in everyday conversations: A conversation analytic study
CONCLUSIONS & IMPLICATIONS: Mild aphasia appears not to impede PWAs' ability to participate in the planning of joint future activities, whereas severe aphasia is a potential limitation. To address this possible participatory barrier, we discuss clinical implications for both therapist-led aphasia treatment and conversation partner training.WHAT THIS PAPER ADDS: What is already known on the subject PWAs use multimodal resources to compensate for their language impairment in everyday conversations. However, certain social actions, such as proposing a joint future activity, cannot ordinarily be accomplished without language. ...

Adaptation of melodic intonation therapy to a tone language: A pilot study of tone-rhythmic therapy in Chinese
This study developed a Chinese-specific variant of melodic intonation therapy, i.e., Tone-rhythmic therapy (TRT), and tested its efficacy in individuals with non-fluent aphasia. Methods: Six non-fluent aphasic patients were recruited; all of them were admitted to the study over six months after stroke and had received a standard program of language therapy. In the current research, tone and rhythmic training were incorporated into the training procedures, and the adaptation was then examined in patients. The TRT treatment lasted six weeks, with five fifty-minute sessions per week. The Boston Diagnostic Aphasia Examination ...

Combined anodal transcranial direct current stimulation and behavioural naming treatment improves language performance in patients with post-stroke aphasia
CONCLUSIONS: AtDCS on the left posterior perisylvian area seems to be a promising tool for boosting the outcomes of behavioral naming therapy in patients with post-stroke aphasia.PMID:35949195 | DOI:10.1080/02699052.2022.2109733

Applying adaptive distributed practice to self-managed computer-based anomia treatment: A single-case experimental design
CONCLUSIONS: These case studies suggest that adaptive distributed practice is an effective method for re-training more words than typically targeted in anomia treatment research (∼47 words on average per Snell et al., 2010). Generalization across experimental conditions provided evidence for improved lexical access beyond what could be attributed to simple stimulus-response mapping. These effects were obtained using free, open-source flashcard software in a clinically feasible, asynchronous format, thereby minimizing clinical implementation barriers. Larger-scale clinical trials are required to replicate and extend these...
