Abstract

Date Presented 4/20/2018

The results of this study suggest it is feasible for occupational therapy practitioners to use Lee Silverman Voice Treatment BIG® (LSVT–BIG) with a client with chronic stroke and aphasia. Further, it is feasible to deliver the home exercise portion of LSVT–BIG using a computer-based gamified system.
