21. Stroke And Aphasia Information Resources for stroke recovery, including home therapy tips and survivors' stories. Presented by Bungalow Software, a provider of rehabilitation programs. http://strokesupport.com/info/stroke/default.asp

A stroke happens when a blood clot blocks a blood vessel or artery, or when a blood vessel breaks, interrupting blood flow to an area of the brain. The stroke kills brain cells in the immediate area. These cells usually die within minutes to a few hours after the stroke starts. When brain cells die , the abilities they controlled are lost or impaired. This includes functions such as speech, movement, and memory. The specific abilities lost or affected depend on where in the brain the stroke occurs and on the size of the stroke (i.e., the extent of brain cell death).

Aphasia is a language disorder that results from damage to portions of the brain that are responsible for language. For most people, these are parts of the left side (hemisphere) of the brain. Aphasia usually occurs suddenly, often as the result of a stroke or head injury, but it may also develop slowly, as in the case of a brain tumor. The disorder impairs both the expression and understanding of language as well as reading and writing. Aphasia may co-occur with speech disorders such as dysarthria or apraxia of speech , which also result from brain damage. Who has aphasia? Anyone can acquire aphasia, but most people who have aphasia are in their middle to late years. Men and women are equally affected. It is estimated that approximately 80,000 individuals acquire aphasia each year. About one million persons in the United States currently have aphasia. Top What causes aphasia?

Updated 11-11-03 What is global aphasia Global aphasia is an acquired language disorder characterized by severe impairments in both comprehension and production. What causes global aphasia? The disorder is caused by injuries to language-processing regions of the brain. The specific sites of injury vary among individuals, but they commonly include Wernicke's and Broca's areas and result from a large strokesparticularly those involving the internal carotid or middle cerebral arteries. How prevalent is global aphasia among stroke survivors? Participants in the Copenhagen Aphasia Study , all initially aphasic survivors of first-ever stroke, have recently contributed to our understanding of the prevalence of this disorder. In this investigation, the frequency of global aphasia was found to be thirty-two percent in the acute phase of stroke and seven percent one year after stroke. What are the symptoms of global aphasia? The symptoms of global aphasia reflect processing difficulties in particular brain regions. These regions would ordinarily assign words and meanings, string words together, and complete other language tasks. Thus, the symptoms of global aphasia are impairments in all aspects of language-based communication: reading, writing, speaking, and understanding speech. The exact symptoms vary from person to person. For example, some globally aphasic individuals do not understand speech at all, while others recognize the names of family members and are able to follow whole-body commands. Similarly, some individuals are mute, while others can produce a few sounds (e.g., "ta, ta") or stereotypic phrases (e.g., "we said"). Although no aspect of language is functional, certain aspects may be more impaired than others.

Freud's On Aphasia Meeting of the Faculty, New York Psychoanalytic Institute, June 14, 1995. Presentation on electronic media and psychoanalytic educaton by Dr. William I. Grossman. Dr. Margolis began the discussion of electronic texts by observing that there are many potential research and educational uses of electronic texts, which are just beginning to be explored. Our organization has been on the forefront of this exploration. Our library now has a page on the World Wide Web, which can be accessed via the Internet. The Board of Directors has recently provided funding to Dr. W. Grossman and Dr. J. Crow to build the first prototype of an electronic document in psychoanalysis. This document uses Dr. Grossman's paper, "Hierarchies, Boundaries, and Representation in a Freudian Model of Mental Organization", J.A.P.A., 1992 , as an organizer to trace the development of Freud's models of the mental apparatus. This text will be available for viewing at the upcoming meeting of the International Psychoanalytic Association in San Francisco. Dr. Grossman then described how his current project evolved from his work tracing ideas in and related to Freud's writings, starting with Freud's work On Aphasia. Dr. Grossman has proposed that

Disorders and Diseases Aphasia Aphasia is a disorder that results from damage to language centers of the brain. For almost all right-handers and for about 1/2 of left-handers, damage to the left side of the brain causes aphasia. As a result, individuals who were previously able to communicate through speaking, listening, reading and writing become more limited in their ability to do so. The most common cause of aphasia is  stroke , but gunshot wounds, blows to the head, other traumatic brain injury, brain tumor, and other sources of brain damage can also cause aphasia.
