Book Description
The period of acute recovery following acquired brain injury has been referred to as post-traumatic amnesia despite the recognition that the scope of impairment extends far beyond memory. Conversely, delirium is a neuropsychiatric disorder with a broad constellation of symptoms, including cognitive, psychiatric and behavioral impairments, which may be precipitated by a wide range of etiologies. Recent understanding of acute recovery following acquired brain injury suggests that these cognitive and behavioral impairments may be managed more appropriately if they were considered instead as symptoms of delirium. The advantages of this conceptualization are clear: delirium is a condition which accounts for the breadth of the symptoms ignored by the concept of post-traumatic amnesia and for which there are clear treatment recommendations. To improve recognition of the condition in medical rehabilitation settings, a brief screening tool was developed. The tool was comprised of three items demonstrated to be commonly impaired in patients with delirium and which were hypothesized to reflect core features of the disorder. The screening tool was compared to diagnostic criteria for delirium and also to existing validated scales. The accuracy of the tool was assessed using receiver operating characteristic analysis, and the concurrent and construct validity of the tool was established by comparing the screening tool to validated tools in terms of severity, accuracy at existing cutoff scores, duration of delirious episode and alignment with theoretical constructs. Data analysis indicated that the proposed tool was demonstrated to be a highly accurate and valid screening instrument for delirium in a population of patients in an inpatient medical rehabilitation setting. Because the screening tool is efficient and objective relative to other measures available for delirium screening, it holds the potential to improve the recognition and subsequent treatment of the disorder.

Book Description
The definitive reference for managing sensorimotor speech disorders Bringing together the expertise of leading research practitioners in the field, the second edition of Clinical Management of Sensorimotor Speech Disorders is an up-to-date reference for the underlying theory and the basic principles of assessment and treatment. This book provides a solid foundation in the conceptual framework essential for classifying and differentiating disorders according to clinical categories. It covers the theory underlying measurement strategies including acoustic, kinematic, aerodynamic, and electromyographic techniques, and guides the reader through treatments for each disorder. New in this edition is a comprehensive section with in-depth coverage of the diseases, syndromes, and pathologic conditions which are accompanied by sensorimotor speech disorders. These chapters provide concise descriptions of the disease and its signs and symptoms, neuropathology, epidemiology, and etiology. Each chapter goes on to present the speech impairment associated with the disorder and its signs and symptoms, etiology, neuropathology, associated cognitive, linguistic, and communicative signs and symptoms, special diagnostic considerations, treatment, and key references. Features: Clear articulation of theoretical issues provides a strong foundation for the clinical management of the dysarthrias, apraxia, and speech problems secondary to hearing loss New chapter on neurogenic fluency disorders Extensive discussion of neuropathologic conditions that cause sensorimotor speech disorders Authoritative and comprehensive, this expanded edition will prove to be the reference of choice for students in speech-language pathology programs as well as clinicians and researchers.

Book Description
Neurobiology of Language explores the study of language, a field that has seen tremendous progress in the last two decades. Key to this progress is the accelerating trend toward integration of neurobiological approaches with the more established understanding of language within cognitive psychology, computer science, and linguistics. This volume serves as the definitive reference on the neurobiology of language, bringing these various advances together into a single volume of 100 concise entries. The organization includes sections on the field's major subfields, with each section covering both empirical data and theoretical perspectives. "Foundational" neurobiological coverage is also provided, including neuroanatomy, neurophysiology, genetics, linguistic, and psycholinguistic data, and models. - Foundational reference for the current state of the field of the neurobiology of language - Enables brain and language researchers and students to remain up-to-date in this fast-moving field that crosses many disciplinary and subdisciplinary boundaries - Provides an accessible entry point for other scientists interested in the area, but not actively working in it – e.g., speech therapists, neurologists, and cognitive psychologists - Chapters authored by world leaders in the field – the broadest, most expert coverage available
