  • Front
  • Back
these compose the major systems of hearing, speech and language
Central nervous system, auditory, respiratory, phonatory, resonatory and articulatory systems
these compose the respiratory system
diaphragm, abdomen, thoracic cavity, intercostals and the trachea
this is the chief muscle of inhalation
diaphragm, and it is located between the abdomen & thoracic cavity
section located below the diaphragm
abdomen
section located above the diaphragm
thoracic cavity
there are 11 pair of muscles located between the ribs
intercoastals
this is the starting point of the lower airway
trachea
trachea branches or bifurcates in to the bronchi to then branch into
bronchioloes
what are articulation disorders?
sound acquision problems that children have ei. Substitute a"t" for a "k"
what does ccc at end of SLPs stand for?
dlinical competency certificate it is required in some institutions to work
what does IEP stand for?
Individualized Educational Plan
diaphragm constriction causes
air to be drawn into the lungs
the abdomen contains within it
the kidneys and the intestines
the thoracic cavity contains within it
the lungs and the heart
what is the duty of the intercoastals?
help the ribs expand and contract to control breath stream
how many pairs of ribs are there
12 pairs
what does the upper air way include?
the structures of the larynx, epiglottis and the pharynx
these compose the phonatory mechanism
larynx, hyoid bone, cartilages, and the vocal folds
where is the phonatory system located?
above the respiratory system
where is the larynx?
it rests just above the trachea
what is the hyoid bone?
a u shaped bone from which the larynx is suspended
name the cartilages of the larynx
thyroid, cricoid, epiglottis, arytenoids, corniculates and cuneiforms
name the unpaired cartilage of the larynx
thryorid, cricod, epiglottis
name the paired cartialge of the larynx
arytenoids, corniculates, and cuneiforms
the central nervous system consists of
brain and the spinal cord
these attach to the vocal process of the arytenoids posteriorly
Vocal folds
vocal folds attach to the back of thyroid cartilage anteriorly where?
at the thyroid notch
this unpaired cartilage is located underneath the thyroid
cricoid
this unpaired cartilage sits on top of the larynx
epiglottis
this paired cartilage where vocal folds attach has a vocal and lateral process
help the ribs expand and contract to control breath stream
what is the purpose of the vocal process of the arytenoids
this is where the vocal folds attach
what cartilage is on top of the arytehoids?
the corniculates
coniform cartilage reside where?
in the glotical folds
what does the arythenoids tells us
how tight to hold the vocal folds/the tigher the higher the loser the lower the pitch
Resonatory mechanism includes
pharyngeal cavity, oral cavity, nasal cavity, and the velum
where is the pharygeal cavity?
just above the larynx, back of the throat
what is the oral cavity
the mouth non nasal sounds are primarily resonated here
what is the nasal cavity
nose. These sounds are resonated here m, n, ng
what is the importance of the velum?
regulates airflow between the oral and nasal cavities in english there are 3 nasal consonants
name the movable articulators
the tongue, lips, soft palate and jaw
name the unmovable articulators
teeth, hard palate or maxilliar and the alveolar ridge
auditory mechanism is composed of
outer, middle and inner ear
this outer ear component is responsible for funneling sound waves in to the ear
pinna or auricle
this outer ear component of the ear canal is also known as the
external audioty meatus
the eardrum, part of the middle ear is also known as
tympanic membrane
the 3 ossicles in the middle ear are:
malleus, incus and stapes
these are 4 of the components of the inner ear
oval window (cochlea component), semicircular canal, cochlea, organ of corti
where is the organ of corti located
within the basilar membrane
what constitudes the central nervous system?
brain and the spinal cord
what constitudes the cerebrum?
gyri and sulci it has two hemisphere/ left and right
name the fuction of the frontal lobe
responsible for motor movements, executive functioning planning and memory. Broca area is here important in speech production
what is the function of the parietal lobe
sensory information occurs here, heat/cold sensory this is located posterior to the frontal lobe
name the fuction of the temporal lobe
responsible for hearing, this is where wernicke's are is located also language comprehension occurs here
describe the importance of the basal ganglia
located deep within the brain, lessions of this causes movement disorders, dyskinesia (little movement), hyperkinesia (too much movement), altered posture, dysarthria and parkinson's disease. Rest tremors
what is known as the relay station of the brain
the talamus, because it integrates sensory information and communicates it to various parts of the cerebral cortex
what is the cerebellum's function
it coordinates our movements damage can result in ataxia(uncoordiante motor moves) and the inability to produce rhythmic speech sounds (dyakanetic), intention tremors, mystagmus (eye shifting) characterized by wide gait if damaged
what is included in the brain stem?
the midbrain, pons and the medulla also where a lot of the cranial and spinal nerves go through
How many types of connecting fiber are there in the brain
projection, association, commissural
what are projection fiber responsible for
to establish connection between the cortex and subcortical structures, they run vertically
what are association fibers functions
connecting areas within the same hemisphere of the brain
why is the commissural fiber important?
it connects the 2 hemispheres of the brain, the main one is corpus collosum
How many cranial nerves are there?
12 pairs and the 7 speech related ones are: Trigeminal 5 (v), Facial 7 (VII), Auditory 8 (Viii), Glossopharyngeal 9 (IX), vagus 10 (X), accessory 11 (XI) and the hypoglossal 12 (XII)
what is the second major division of the human nervous system
the peripheral nervous system and it consists of the 31 pairs of spinal and the 12 cranial nerves
describe the pyramidal system or the direct activation pathway
responsible for voluntary movement, it contains 2 bundles of nerve fibers; corticospinal and corticobulbar tracts
within the pyramidal system what is of speech importance
the coticobulbar tract where voluntary movement for speech production is controlled
describe the extrapyramidal system or the indirect activation system importance in speech
made up of various subcortial nuclei, within it the basal ganglia which is responsible for skilled motor movement of speech
involuntary movement disorder is indicative of damage to what area
Indirect activation system which is also evident in poor posture and tone
what is the upper motor neuron?
nerve fibers that stay within the central nervous system.the originate in the cerebral cortex then descend to the vental horns of the spinal cords terminating at the cranial nerve in the brain stem.
describe the lower motor neuron and what happens to speech if damaged
causes muscular movements. Damage causes weakness, slowness of movements in speech of lips, tongue, and soft palate
