The inability to communicate personal needs, feelings, and ideas is a frustrating barrier for nonverbal patients with severe physical disabilities. It hampers the physician-patient relationship and medical services. This problem has been diminished with the use of a new communication board for patients with brain stem involvement. The communication board display is comprised of 36 squares in a 6 X 6 matrix. The alphabet is arranged in this matrix according to the normal sequence, and each row begins with a vowel. Selection of a desired alphabet letter is done by naming the vowels vertically until the appropriate row is reached, then the individual consonants horizontally until the proper one is indicated by the patient. With this new arrangement, the patient, attendant, or staff can memorize and functionally use the new communication board in a few minutes.
对于有严重身体残疾的非言语患者而言，无法表达个人需求、感受和想法是一个令人沮丧的障碍。这会妨碍医患关系以及医疗服务。随着一种用于脑干受累患者的新型交流板的使用，这个问题已有所缓解。交流板显示屏由一个6×6矩阵中的36个方格组成。字母表按照正常顺序排列在这个矩阵中，每行以一个元音开头。通过垂直说出元音直到到达合适的行，然后水平说出各个辅音直到患者指出正确的字母，来选择所需的字母。通过这种新的排列方式，患者、陪护人员或工作人员能够在几分钟内记住并实际使用这种新型交流板。
