A person deprived from the ability to communicate adequately is practically socially isolated. This isolation often leads to subsequent disturbances in the psycho-physiological status of the patient, but it can be influenced by professional intervention in the early stages of speech-language disorders.
Aphasia is a language disorder that occurs as a result of brain damage.
Sensory aphasia – impaired understanding
Motor aphasia – impaired, unintelligible speech
Dysarthria – impairment of the peripheral articulatory organs (lips, tongue)
Dysphagia – impaired swallowing
Loss of all language functions – difficulty naming objects
Dysgraphia – impaired written speech
Fatigue after short physical activities, such as climbing stairs
Acalculia – impaired mathematical skills, calculation
Patients after a stroke
Brain injury
Brain tumor
Inflammatory processes and intoxications
Loss of all language functions, such as understanding and expression
Speech therapy focuses on restoring the language and speech skills of the patient by using alternative or additional communication methods. Depending on the clinical case, a multidisciplinary team (doctor, rehabilitator, psychologist, and others) of specialists may be required. The speech therapist structures a suitable individual program for the development of communicative abilities.
