Progress Report on an Evaluation of Speech Therapy for Aphasia

Abstract
Summary: A feasibility study of a proposed evaluation of speech therapy for acquired aphasia is described.Patients were allocated randomly to either individual speech therapy or an equal amount of intervention from untrained volunteers. Their progress was closely followed for 12 weeks of treatment and subsequently until the end of one year. Thirteen patients completed the study and the results are reported. After some minor changes to the Protocol the Study continues as a large scale, multicentre project.
