This can mean stuttering lisps vocal dysphonia etc. edit Classifying speech into normal and disordered is more problematic than it first seems. By a strict classification, only 5% to 10% of the population have a completely normal (with respect to all parameters) and healthy voice, all others suffer from one disorder or another. Dysphonia , that is, incomplete functionality of the vocal folds , is one of the most common and can be observed as, for example, an unusual roughness of the voice. Stuttering is also quite common, about 7% of the population suffer from it at some point in life. edit There are various causes of speech impediments, such as "hearing loss, neurological disorders, brain injury, mental retardation, drug abuse, physical impairments such as cleft lip or palate, and vocal abuse or misuse." However, in many cases the cause is unknown (1).

    http://www.infoparkinson.org/En/Contenu/Vieau_trouble_parole.asp
    
    Extractions: Speech disorders Many people with Parkinson’s disease suffer from dysarthria, a speech disorder related to the language motor centres. In fact, according to recent studies, at least 75% of people affected will have dysarthria to varying degrees during the course of their disease. The difficulties observed result mainly from a limitation in or a lack of coordination of the muscles involved in speaking. To better understand the scope of this disorder, it should be remembered that speech is supported by respiration, which also underlies other functions: Voice, articulation, and prosody (rhythm, stress and flow rate). Although there may be variations between individuals, the speech characteristics observed in people with Parkinson’s disease are essentially the following: Voice and respiration Change in vocal quality: The voice may become hoarse, faint and sometimes wavering. The strength of the voice decreases, causing it to become faint with little carrying power. The respiratory capacity required for voice production is also more limited, and the person feels as if he/she does not have enough breath to finish speaking. Articulation The range of movements involved in articulation is reduced. Articulation becomes less precise and certain syllables are sometimes skipped.

Select for PDF version (49 KB). PDF Help Overview Reporting the Evidence Methodology ... Availability of Full Report Approximately 42 million people (1 in 6) in the United States have some type of communication disorder. Of these, 28 million have communication disorders associated with hearing loss, and 14 million have disorders of speech, voice, and/or language not associated with hearing loss. The personal and societal costs of these disorders are high. On a personal level, such disorders may affect nearly every aspect of daily life. Estimates of annual societal costs in the United States range from $30 billion to $154 billion in lost productivity, special education, and medical costs. Over the last several decades, researchers and clinicians have developed a vast array of assessment instruments for speech, voice, and language; one source reviewing commercially available assessment instruments includes more than 140 tools in its most recent edition. Important clinical decisions follow from the assessment of a person with a communication disorder. These clinical decisions affect an individual's access to services and funding (e.g., eligibility for special education services, third-party payer coverage of treatment, and Social Security disability income).

    Speech and Swallowing Disorders. From The MS Information Sourcebook, speech disorders are fairly common in MS. Speech patterns are controlled by many  
    http://www.nationalmssociety.org/\Sourcebook-Speech.asp
    
    Extractions: One pattern that is commonly associated with MS is so-called "scanning'" speech. Scanning dysarthria produces speech in which the normal "melody" or speech pattern is disrupted, with abnormally long pauses between words or individual syllables of words. Words are Slurred or Sound Nasal People with MS may also slur words. This is usually the result of weakness and/or incoordination of the muscles of the tongue, lips, cheeks, and mouth. Other speech problems include explosive dysarthrias, or nasal speech, which sounds as though the person has a cold or nasal obstruction. Dysarthrias are commonly associated with other symptoms caused by lesions in the brainstem. These include tremor, head shaking, or incoordination. Therapists can Evaluate and Help Improve Speech
