A multifrequency multicomponent admittance meter was used to evaluate 70 ears of patients affected by fenestral otosclerosis (Os ears), monolateral (16 cases) or bilateral (27 cases). The 16 contralateral the with who presented a pure-tone air-bone gap less than 10 dB were evaluated separately (Cos ears). group 48 belonging 24 otologically normal subjects (N hearing thresholds better equal 10dB HL in frequencies between 250 and 8000 Hz served as control group. purpose study acoustic...
In order to evaluate the results of voice and speech rehabilitation after total laryngectomy some acoustic parameters (fundamental frequency, waveform perturbation) were examined in 18 patients. Eight these subjects had previously been surgically rehabilitated with a trachealesophageal phonatory valve while 10 submitted esophageal rehabilitation. Analysis has shown that voices are more likely provide stable fundamental frequency; there is also tendency toward clearly defined harmonics;...
Several studies have demonstrated how physical exercise can increase noise-induced temporary threshold shifts (TTS), but until now no evidence of TTS exclusively attributable to activity has yet been reported. In this study the hearing pure-tone thresholds 10 subjects were evaluated at rest and three designated times following end a work load corresponding 50% 80% maximum oxygen uptake (VO2 max). The results obtained demonstrate definite effect on 6000 8000 Hz that higher frequency, greater...
Background: Retrosternal goiters (RGs) pose several challenges to head and neck surgeons because of the intricate anatomical relationships with major vessels other mediastinal structures. Methods: A scoping review last five years in PubMed database was conducted a total 105 articles were discussed, along methodological issues future directions research on RGs. Results: The surgical excision RGs may be accomplished by standard transcervical approach vast majority cases, yet potential need for...
