Advances in the Treatment for Acquired Apraxia of Speech

Abstract

Treatments for acquired apraxia of speech (AOS) have a modest, but growing evidence base. A substantial number of treatment investigations have been reported since the publication of the first AOS treatment guidelines (Wambaugh, Duffy, McNeil, Robin, & Rogers, 2006a; 2006b). The authors have provided an overview of more recent AOS treatment evidence, along with a description of important advances, emerging trends, and new directions in the treatment of AOS.
