NCT ID: NCT05383417 Completed - Dysphagia Clinical Trials

No Post Intubation Laryngeal Symptoms

No-PILS
Start date: November 8, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of the study is to test a novel endotracheal tube support device that reduces pressure of the tube on the voice box for prevention of post intubation laryngeal symptoms including sore throat, change in voice and trouble swallowing.

NCT ID: NCT05365126 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Muscle Tension Dysphonia

Complete Vocal Technique Voice Therapy for Muscle Tension Dysphonia (CVT4MTD)

CVT4MTD
Start date: May 5, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This proof-of-concept study is designed to evaluate whether a pedagogic technique used to help performers, known as the Complete Vocal Technique (CVT), can be used to help patients with a type of voice disorder known as Muscle Tension Dysphonia (MTD). MTD is responsible for up to 40% of patients presenting with voice and throat complaints. MTD is due to inefficient or ineffective voice production resulting from an imbalance in the control of the breathing mechanism, and uncontrolled constriction of the muscles in the larynx (voice box) or vocal tract (throat space above the vocal cords). Standard treatment is Voice Therapy delivered by a specialist Speech Therapist (SLT-V) often using a video link (telepractice aka telehealth). CVT is widely used in Europe by singers and vocal coaches. Practitioners (CVT- Ps) undergo a three-year accredited training programme, and the systematic and structured approach helps healthy singers and other performers optimise the function of the voice to produce any sound required. It also helps if the performer has vocal problems, which are also mainly due to uncontrolled throat constrictions. The purpose of this pilot study is to see if the CVT voice therapy approach (CVT-VT) can help, and offers advantages, to standard SLT-V methods in the treatment of patients with MTD. Ten adult patients will be recruited from the Voice clinic at Nottingham University Hospital. Participants will have a multidimensional assessment using questionnaires, and voice recordings and then receive up to 6 video sessions of CVT-VT delivered using a video link by a CVT-P. The participants will then be reviewed back in clinic at 8 weeks and be reassessed, using further questionnaires and analysis of the voice pre- and post-therapy recordings, to evaluate the outcome of this treatment approach. Qualitative methodology will determine whether CVT-VT offers any therapeutic advantages to existing SLT-VT treatment methods.

NCT ID: NCT05357222 Recruiting - Voice Disorders Clinical Trials

Straw Phonation Exercise Program for Pitch Extension

SOVT
Start date: November 16, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

To investigate the change in fundamental frequency range and vocal fold stability achievable with vocal fold stretching exercise in human populations with high and low vocal activity

NCT ID: NCT05317390 Recruiting - Parkinson Disease Clinical Trials

Clinical Validation of DystoniaNet Deep Learning Platform for Diagnosis of Isolated Dystonia

Start date: June 1, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This research involves retrospective and prospective studies for clinical validation of a DystoniaNet deep learning platform for the diagnosis of isolated dystonia.

NCT ID: NCT05312463 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Gastroesophageal Reflux

Assessment on Effects of Tongjiang Granule in Treating Nonerosive Reflux Disease Overlapping Epigastric Pain Syndrome

Start date: March 26, 2022
Phase: Phase 1/Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

Overlapping gastrointestinal symptoms of functional gastrointestinal diseases (FGIDs) is an internationally recognized problem in modern medical diagnosis and treatment. Such patients show more physical symptoms and worse quality of life, resulting in a huge economic burden. At present, FGIDs gastrointestinal symptoms overlap, lack of effective and systematic treatment, and the treatment goal is to improve symptoms.The study plans to carry out a multi center and large sample RCT clinical study of Tongjiang granule in the treatment of overlapping gastrointestinal symptoms of non erosive reflux disease(NERD)and epigastric pain syndrome(EPS, so as to provide high-level evidence-based evidence for the treatment of overlapping symptoms of FGIDs and form a diagnosis and treatment scheme that can be popularized.

NCT ID: NCT05264961 Active, not recruiting - Dysphonia Clinical Trials

Behavioral Abnormalities in Dysphonic Children

Start date: March 1, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

we will assess dysphonic children as regard presence of behavioral abnormalities and then receive voice therapy

NCT ID: NCT05237648 Recruiting - Dysphonia Clinical Trials

Assessing the Effects of Patient Self-Rating of Voice Quality on Voice Therapy Attendance and Outcomes

Start date: November 1, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to assess the effects of incorporating educational online modules into voice therapy. One of the main reasons that voice therapy fails is lack of participation and engagement from the patient's side. The researchers hope to learn if increasing patient engagement via educational online modules during this waiting period between evaluation and first therapy session is useful in increasing understanding of the therapeutic framework of voice therapy.

NCT ID: NCT05216770 Recruiting - Tremor Clinical Trials

Understanding Disorder-specific Neural Pathophysiology in Laryngeal Dystonia and Voice Tremor

Start date: March 24, 2022
Phase: Early Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

The researchers will examine functional neural correlates that differentiate between laryngeal dystonia and voice tremor and contribute to disorder-specific pathophysiology using a cross-disciplinary approach of multimodal brain imaging.

NCT ID: NCT05179811 Terminated - Clinical trials for Functional Dystonia (Disorder)

Description of the Evolution of Functional Dysphonia Managed by Hypnotherapy

HYPNODYS
Start date: April 8, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational

HYPNODYS is a single-center study evaluating the evolution of perceived voice-related disability before and after 3 standardized hypnosis sessions in patients with functional dysphonia.

NCT ID: NCT05158179 Completed - Voice Disorders Clinical Trials

Assessment of Laryngopharyngeal Sensation in Adductor Spasmodic Dysphonia

SDTT
Start date: August 27, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Study investigators have completed a study testing laryngopharyngeal sensation at specific laryngopharyngeal subsites using a novel buckling force aesthesiometer in a series of 22 healthy adults at this institution. Investigators would like to use the same device apparatus to evaluate laryngopharyngeal sensation in patients with laryngopharyngeal disorders, such as adductor spasmodic dysphonia. This study will use a tested laryngopharyngeal aesthesiometer to examine laryngeal sensation using calibrated tactile stimuli to determine differences in somatotopic perceptual strength maps of laryngopharyngeal structures between patients with laryngopharyngeal disorders and healthy controls.
