Ultrasound visual feedback for acquired apraxia of speech: A case report

The speech and language findings in one patient who underwent chronic hemodialysis therapy are presented. The patient’s degenerating physical status was first signaled by stutteringlike repetitions. The speech diagnosis is mixed dysarthria, apraxia of speech, and aphasia. Clinical implications are discussed.

BACKGROUND Virtual reality-assisted physical therapy is a promising treatment for children with cerebral palsy. However, thus far, it has not been used for adult patients. OBJECTIVE The following case report examines the safety and feasibility of customized virtual reality interventions for an adult patient with cerebral palsy who was experiencing right sided pain, weakness, dystonias. METHODS This research included two phases of intervention, which were based on the principles of mirror visual feedback, occasionally termed “mirror box therapy.” The patient used self-report rating scales to monitor anxiety and depression levels, as well as provided verbal feedback regarding pain levels. RESULTS The treatments were well tolerated, and the patient reported improved function in the injured limb. However, the duration of pain relief was only 2–4 days between sessions, causing the patient to require ongoing in office virtual reality treatments. CONCLUSIONS The implications of these findings for the future treatment of such patients are discussed.

Novel Approach ◽

Copy Strategy

Arm amputees can experience the perception of movement of a phantom limb while looking at a mirror reflection of the moving, intact arm superimposed on the perceived phantom. Such use of a mirror to provide illusory visual feedback of move ment can be useful in rehabilitation of hemiparetic patients. In this case report, we de scribe the successful application of "mirror therapy" to the post-stroke rehabilitation of a patient with poor functional use of an upper extremity, due mainly to so matosensory deficits. Mirror therapy facilitated employment of a motor copy strategy (bimanual movements) and later progression to "forced use" of the affected arm. The end result was increased functional use of the affected upper limb.
