These SIG 2 articles focus on clinical assessment and practices for individuals with aphasia. Topics covered included challenges associated with diagnosing primary progressive aphasia (PPA) and the impact of adaptive yoga programs for persons with aphasia. First, Aimee Dietz, E. Susan Duncan, Lauren Bislick, Sarah Stegman, Jenna Collins, Chitrali Mamlekar, Rachel Gleason, and Michael J. McCarthy provide an overview of the potential impact adapted yoga programs can have for people with stroke-induced aphasia. Second, Adithya Chandregowda raises awareness about the challenges associated with encountering primary progressive aphasia (PPA) patients in the acute hospital setting.

  • describe the adverse effect of stroke and aphasia on quality of life and the potential impact of yoga on people with aphasia and co-survivors
  • summarize reasons behind PPA patients’ delayed clinical consultation for their symptoms, the impact the delay has on their illness experience, and the consequential need for interdisciplinary approaches to serve such patients

Assessment Type
