Q

How do we inspire and expire?

A
  1. Diaphragm & Resp muscles expand ribs&lungs inhale air
    Lungs expand -> pressure w/in lungs compared 2 outside lungs is reduced -> air moves lungs =izing pressures in & out lungs
  2. Contract reduce chest -> + press w/in lungs, exhalation
  3. Exhale vf vibrate 4 speech -> depending sit maybe longer or deeper

Q

Lamina propria ( middle layer) 
Vocalis Muscle ( body, most stability and mass to VF)
31
Q

What are the two other pairs of folds and function ?

A

Aryepiglottic folds - seperate larynx from pharynx & preserve airway

Ventricular VF; false VF - vibrate low F0 freq and not usually during phonation- coughing and heavy lifting

32
Q

What is the myloelastic-aerodynamic theory?

A

VF vibrate because forces of pressure & air and elasticity of VF

More: air flowing out of lungs temp stopped by closed VF, subglottic pressure-> blow apart and set into vibration

Air moves with + velocity through glottic opening, air moves swiftly through open/constricted VF, pressure between edges of VF - and VF sucked together

33
Q

What is the Bernoulli effect?

A

Increased speed of air passing between VFs and sucking motion of the VF towards each other

Subglottic pressure builds and sets VF into motion- cycle of opening and closing of VFs cycle is repeated more than 100X per second during vocalizations

34
Q

What is the mucosal wave action?

A

Cover and transition produce a wave -> wave travels across surface VF 2/3 to lateral edge, wave dissipates before reaching thyroid cartilage edge

Without muscosal wave no vibration and no pathology
The cover( epithelium and superficial Lamina propria) or reinkes space and transition (intermediate and deep layers of Lamina propria) over Vocalis muscle slide and produce a wave
VF stripped to remove nodules and may not vibrate due to alteration in mucsosal wave

35
