Smartphone-Based Speech Therapy for Poststroke Dysarthria: Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial Evaluating Efficacy and Feasibility

Smartphone-Based Speech Therapy for Poststroke Dysarthria: Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial Evaluating Efficacy and Feasibility

Approximately 40% of people who had survived a stroke experience disabilities [2,3], and over half of the patients with acute stroke develop motor speech disorders, particularly dysarthria [4]. Poststroke dysarthria results from weakened, slow, or impaired speech production muscles caused by cranial nerve damage [5]. Poststroke dysarthria can cause abnormalities in vocal quality, pace, strength, and volume, ultimately leading to reduced speech intelligibility.

Models and Approaches for Comprehension of Dysarthric Speech Using Natural Language Processing: Systematic Review

Models and Approaches for Comprehension of Dysarthric Speech Using Natural Language Processing: Systematic Review

Having knowledge of the topic of discussion during discourse may be helpful in understanding what the patient with dysarthria is saying; however, it has been shown that even the patterns of intertopic switching by these speakers are outside of the usual discourse norms. As such, the primary task of listener-targeted remediation in offsetting the intelligibility burden associated with dysarthria from the speaker is left with the listener [3,4].

Automatic Assessment of Intelligibility in Noise in Parkinson Disease: Validation Study

Automatic Assessment of Intelligibility in Noise in Parkinson Disease: Validation Study

Dysarthria severity ranged from mild to moderate in these speakers and was assessed from a conversation sample by an experienced speech and language pathologist. Consensus with a second speech and language pathologist was obtained for the final dysarthria severity estimates [29]. Speakers’ biographical details and clinical characteristics. a YPD: years postdiagnosis. b P: patient (speaker with dysarthria associated with Parkinson disease). c HC: healthy control. d N/A: not applicable.
