Filter by:The purpose of this study is to assess subjects with muscle tension dysphonia for perceived effort and acoustic effects of gargle phonation compared to baseline and a sham water swallow.
A feasibility study to identify the immediate effect on the voices of patients with voice disorders (muscle tension dysphonia, vocal fold palsy or presbylaryngis) produced by exercising with Acapella Choice as a form of semioccluded vocal tract exercise (SOVTE).
This study aimed to assess of efficacy of the kinesio-taping on male patients suffering from mutational falsetto
This study aims to identify adjuvant methods to improve patient comfort during in-office laryngology procedures.
This is a randomized controlled trial focusing on the effect of different tracheal tube cuff shape; the tapered-shaped tracheal tube cuff versus the cylindrical-shaped tracheal cuff in anterior cervical spine surgery.
How tube size affect patient's experience of postoperative sore throat and hoarseness
This study will investigate the safety and efficacy of a silk protein microparticle-based filler for vocal fold injection augmentation to treat dysphonia/dysphagia secondary to vocal fold paralysis. Participants will receive one injection and follow-up for a planned period of 12 months.
This study will investigate the safety and efficacy of four serial monthly vocal fold injections of platelet-rich plasma to treat dysphonia secondary to vocal fold atrophy, scar, and/or sulcus vocalis with glottal insufficiency
The general aim of the research is to provide scientific evidence that vibro-tactile stimulation (VTS) represents a non-invasive form of neuromodulation that can induce measurable improvements in the speech of people with spasmodic dysphonia (SD). This research addresses a clinical need to develop alternative or auxiliary treatments for a rare voice disorder with limited treatment options. A successful completion of the proposed work will be an important step in advancing laryngeal VTS as a therapeutic intervention for improving the voice symptoms in SD. Specifically, the scientific yield by achieving the specific aims is threefold: First, it will elucidate the unknown neurophysiological mechanism behind laryngeal VTS by documenting the neural changes associated with VTS. Second, it will establish that VTS can improve voice quality in SD. Third, by documenting that laryngeal VTS yields long-term benefits on voice quality in SD patients, it would provide a solid basis for a clinical trial that needs to address open questions on optimal dosage and duration of VTS-based voice therapy, the magnitude of the therapeutic effect across adductor and abductor SD and its long term efficacy.
Patients with vocal hyperfunction will undergo standard of care voice therapy with ambulatory voice monitoring before therapy and after the first 3 voice therapy sessions. Biofeedback will be added to ambulatory monitoring after the 2nd voice therapy session only.
