Abstract Purpose: Vocal fold medialization laryngoplasty (ML) and laryngeal reinnervation (LR) as treatments for unilateral vocal paralysis (UVFP) were compared in a multicenter, prospective, randomized clinical trial. Methods: Previously untreated patients with UVFP to undergo either ML or LR. Voice results pretreatment at 6 12 months posttreatment using perceptual ratings by untrained listeners (RUL), blinded speech pathologist GRBAS scores, voice‐related quality of life (VRQOL) scores....
Insufficient numbers of health professions students aspire to work with the increasing elderly. Although programs exist promote interest in serving this population, inadequate professionals remain an issue.This study sample consisted medical (n = 75) and profession 210) enrolled a semester-long interprofessional clinical education program designed enhance teamwork provide positive exposure elderly community. Each team three visited assigned elder times during semester. Students were...
Unilateral vocal fold paralysis (UVP) occurs related to recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) impairment associated with impaired swallowing, voice production, and breathing functions. The majority of UVP cases occur subsequent surgical intervention approximately 12-42% having no known cause for the disease (i.e., idiopathic). Approximately two-thirds those exhibit left-sided injury average onset at ≥50 yr age in diagnosed as idiopathic. Given association between RLN subclavian aortic arch...
Unilateral vocal-fold paralysis (UVP) occurs when one of the vocal folds becomes paralyzed due to damage recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN). Individuals with UVP experience problems speaking, swallowing, and breathing. Nearly two-thirds all cases is associated impaired function left RLN, which branches from vagus within thoracic cavity loops around aorta before ascending larynx neck. We hypothesize that this path predisposes RLN a supraphysiological, biomechanical environment, contributing...
Purpose This descriptive cohort pilot study, using a convenience sample, examined whether evidence from vocal function measures, auditory–perceptual ratings, and/or endoscopic signs of aging supported singing in senior chorales as possible intervention to preserve the speaking voice adults. Method Thirteen singers and five nonsinging controls, all over 65 years age, participated. They were assessed at two visits, 15–20 months apart. Vocal measures ratings estimated age presence disorders...
Objectives The intensity of muscle activity immediately following intramuscular botulinum toxin injection may affect the clinical efficacy injection. We tested this effect in patients who underwent injections for adductor spasmodic dysphonia. Methods Patients were studied over 3 to 5 cycles. Cycle 1 was baseline control; cycle 2 randomized between a 1-hour reading aloud task (“exercise”) and 24-hour period complete voice rest. For 3, patient completed not performed 2. willing continue cycles...
A 21-year-old female was admitted to the general medical wards via casualty with a suspected overdose of unknown amounts procyclidine, diazepam and alcohol. She had been known intravenous drug addict for 3 years. On examination she drowsy, agitated smelling venepuncture sites in her antecubital fossae. Her cardiorespiratory observations were normal abdomen soft non-tender. Glasgow Coma Score 9 (E4, M4, V1). pupils dilated but equal reacting light. tone normal, as temperature. Investigations...
