This tutorial explains the difference in mechanisms between the 2 palsies. Bulbar palsy is a lower motor neuron condition and pseudobulbar palsy is an upper motor neuron condidtion.

Thanks for the question! Muscle twitching, or fasciculations, can occur in any skeletal muscle and are caused by contractions of a muscle group that is served by a single motor nerve fiber. The motor nerve fibers are lower motor neurons, so we associate fasciculations with lower motor neuron lesions. If the lower motor neural control of the skeletal muscle is impaired, fasciculations can result. (continued)

Thank you so much for this presentation. I am an SLP student and this video helps me very much with the understanding of Flaccid and Spastic dysarthria. Thanks again

Excellent. My friend developed "progressive bulbar paralysis " after a polio vaxxine in 1959 and was in an iron lung for awhile. Luckily, he recovered 95%.

Useful to note the presence of flaccid dysarthria (speech) in people with bulbar palsy, which could include the hypernasal resonance and/or raspy vocal quality you described with weakness of the soft palate.

Hi, Pseudobulbar palsies are bilateral because of bilateral innervation. Bulbar palsy causes tend to be disease related (muscle or nerve disorders) which would present bilaterally. In the presence of a unilateral bulbar palsy, I would strongly consider a space-occupying lesion/tumor. Best regards, LB
