ANSWERS 100% CORRECT GUARANTEED SUCCESS
How does wernicke's aphasia present?
The patient CAN form normal words, but when they do it is incoherent and
inappropriate. They do not follow verbal commands but may follow if the
command is demonstrated. The reason for this is because they cannot process
language.
Key characteristics of the parietal lobe?
-Visual-Spatial information/orientation
-Sensory interpretation
-Voluntary movements (goal directed)
-Object manipulation
Definition of dysphonia?
-Inability to speak secondary to laryngeal damage/paralysis (laryngeal
inflammation, thickening of the vocal cords, or nerve paralysis)
What is Wernicke's aphasia?
Receptive aphasia due to damage to the temporal lobe (primarily left).
Interprets the meaning of spoken/written word (processing issue)
How does broca's aphasia present?
Patient can understand you but cannot form words. They follow verbal commands
and appropriate execute requests, but they cannot verbally construct their words.
, 2
Definition of dysarthria?
-Inability to articulate words (slurred speech)
Definition of aphasia?
-When damage to the language centers of the brain occur BUT the motor speech
muscles (on face) are intact
What is global aphasia?
When there is damage to the expressive (broca) and receptive (wernicke) areas of
the brain
Key characteristics of the occipital lobe?
-Primary Visual Cortex (visual input processing)
-Secondary Visual Cortex (interprets meaning of written word)
-Optic tract end point
Where is the primary visual cortex? What does it do?
The Occipital lobe
It processes primary visual input such as objects, colors, etc
Where is the secondary visual cortex? What does it do?
The Occipital lobe
It interprets the meaning of written words
Key characteristics of the cerebellum?
-Coordination of voluntary movements
-Balance and equilibrium
Key characteristics of the brainstem?
BASICS OF LIFE
-Breathing
