This paper provides a critical review of the literature currently available relating to aphasic discourse. It outlines major approaches which have been taken analysis, differentiating structuralist and functionalist frameworks in particular discusses resultant gap existing aphasiology research between microstructural linguistic aspects discourse macrostructural/pragmatic aspects. Studies addressing lexical, syntactic, semantic, pragmatic conversational discourse, as well those focusing on...
Background Effectiveness of early intensive aphasia rehabilitation after stroke is unknown. The Very Early Rehabilitation for SpEech trial (VERSE) aimed to determine whether therapy, beginning within 14 days stroke, improved communication recovery compared usual care. Methods Prospective, randomized, single-blinded conducted at 17 acute-care hospitals across Australia/New Zealand from 2014 2018. Participants with following acute were randomized receive care (direct therapy), or one two...

Background : In the 1970s Audrey Holland first emphasised importance of "functional communication" rather than "linguistic accuracy" for individuals with aphasia, noting that they could often "communicate" better "talk". Her approach inspired many to explore why and how this be so, look avenues tapped everyday communication skills, person aphasia's performance on decontextualised language tests. Aims: This paper addresses kinds issues are involved in specifically role endeavour. It aims...
Gastroparesis, characterized by delayed gastric emptying, leads to debilitating gastrointestinal symptoms and often experience comorbid psychiatric disorders, possibly linked brain-gut network dysfunction. This adversely affects quality of life necessitates medical care. We aimed characterize the longitudinal impact anxiety, depression, or bipolar disorder on health-care resource utilization in adults hospitalized primarily with gastroparesis. A retrospective observational study using...
Abstract The effect of restructuring healthcare on the quality, quantity, and nature aphasia management is largely unknown. current study first to examine access, diagnostic, treatment, discharge patterns patients with in Australia, Canada, UK, US private sector (US‐Private), Veterans Health Administration Department Affairs (US‐VA). authors developed a 37‐item survey be completed by clinicians working aphasic patients. focused eight areas: access care, evaluation procedures, group number...
Background: Nursing staff are the most frequent communication partners, after family members, for people in hospital poststroke, and they play an essential role multidisciplinary team. Recent research has found that patients more cognitively socially active when wards provide "enriched environment" as compared to standard care. Therefore, language enrichment on acute is now being considered a possible way discourage "learned nonuse" of with aphasia.Aims: This study involved exploration...
Abstract As clinical aphasiologists seek different ways to understand the complexity of aphasia within naturalistic and social contexts, there is an increasing need provide background information on various research paradigms not widely used in field. Consistent with recent calls for qualitative aphasiology, this article provides rationale, design characteristics, strengths weaknesses paradigm its usefulness aphasiology.
Abstract Background: Although the literature implies that there is limited public awareness of aphasia, direct data have been lacking. Aims: Therefore, a survey was undertaken to sample aphasia. Methods & Procedures: A face-to-face individuals in places England, USA, and Australia undertaken. total 978 were surveyed. Data analysed determine number informants who had "heard aphasia" with "basic knowledge aphasia". In addition, characteristics analysed. Outcomes Results: Of surveyed, 133 said...
In Brief Deciding when and how to incorporate patient preferences regarding mode of delivery is challenging for both obstetric providers policymakers. An analysis current guidelines in four clinical scenarios (prior cesarean, twin delivery, breech presentation, maternal request cesarean) indicates that some are highly prescriptive whereas others more flexible, based on physicians' discretion or (less frequently) preferences, without consistency explicit rationale such flexibility...

Methods The investigates progress 34 laryngectomees stage up 6 months after surgery. Medical complications, communication,...
Although error in medicine has received sustained policy attention recently, the problem of outpatient setting been relatively neglected. In this paper we review what is known about incidence and nature error-related adverse events physicians' offices, ambulatory care facilities, surgicenters. We then analyze policies to improve safety New Jersey, York, Florida, three states that took very different paths toward goal. Their experience suggests accreditation, combined with particular ensuring...
Background: The literature suggests that mild aphasia negatively affects everyday experiences, social life, and identity. However, while word‐finding problems difficulty understanding abstract or grammatically complex language are typical clinical characteristics, their impact on discourse conversation partners remains relatively unexplored. Similarly, treatment studies addressing conversational difficulties have predominantly included those with moderate to severe aphasia, rather than at...
Background: In recent years, there has been a shift in aphasia research interest from analysis of monologues to conversational dialogues. However, where monologic focused primarily on aspects such as language structure and quantity, mainly pragmatic discourse turn taking repair. While is some acknowledgement the differences between use dialogues aphasia, few comparisons have made that cover broad range both syntactic semantic aspects. Aims: This study aims compare aphasic speakers...
