Aphasia Case Studies: A Comprehensive Review
Manage episode 447320964 series 3611380
In this episode, Renee reviews two very different aphasia case studies:
Case study 1: a 40-year-old patient who had a stroke post chemo/radiation for stage 4 lung cancer with global aphasia.
Case Study 2: a 53-year-old patient who had a stroke after foot surgery 3 years ago and was in SNF when the world shut down. She had no therapy for a YEAR, and she could not leave the SNF. Once home, she used a wheelchair and had significant expressive and receptive language deficits due to aphasia.
Join Renee as she reviews how co-morbidities impact recovery, access to medical care and therapy in the acute phase of stroke, the importance of stroke education, and both effective and ineffective therapeutic interventions.
