17
Q
  • paralysis
  • in unilateral paralysis, fold can be static toward midline or far from midline, causing aphonia
  • bilaterial-when both fold paralyzed open, leads to aphonia. If paralyzed in adducted position, pt struggles for breath
  • ankylosis-stiffening of joints of arytenoids
A

Paralysis and Ankylosis

18
Q
  • -aka laryngeal dyskinesia and episodic paroxysmal laryngospasm
  • inappropriate closure/adduction of the true vocal folds during inhalation, exhalation, or both.
A

a. Paradoxical Vocal Fold Motion Disorder (PVFMD)

Physically and Neurologically Based Disorders of Phonation

19
Q

Treatment texhniques:

Is designed to increase pulmonary output, improve glottic efficiency, reduce excessive muscular tension, and normalize the vibratory pattern during phonation.

a. Manual circumlaryngeal techniques
b. Accent method
c. LSVT
d. Expiratory muscle strength training

A

b. Accent method

20
Q

Treatment texhniques:

improves respiratory strength during phonation. Increase in maximum expiratory pressure (MEP) can be trained with specific calibrated exercises over time, thus improving the relationship between respiration, phonation, and resonance

a. Manual circumlaryngeal techniques
b. Accent method
c. LSVT
d. Expiratory muscle strength training

A

d. Expiratory muscle strength training

21
Q

Treatment texhniques:

help maximize phonatory and respiratory function using a set of simple tasks.

a. Manual circumlaryngeal techniques
b. Accent method
c. LSVT
d. Expiratory muscle strength training

A

c. LSVT

22
Q

Treatment texhniques:

intended to reduce musculoskeletal tension and hyperfunction by re-posturing the larynx during phonation.

a. Manual circumlaryngeal techniques
b. Accent method
c. LSVT
d. Expiratory muscle strength training

A

a. Manual circumlaryngeal techniques

23
Q

Treatment texhniques:

goal is to achieve the strongest, “cleanest” possible voice with the least effort and impact between the vocal folds to minimize the likelihood of injury and maximize the likelihood of vocal health

a. Vocal function exercises
b. Chant speech
c. Glottal fry
d. Resonant voice therapy-
E. Semi-occluded vocal tract (SOVT) exercises
F. Inhalation phonation

A

d. Resonant voice therapy-

24
Q

Treatment texhniques:

a series of systematic voice manipulations designed to facilitate return to healthy voice function by strengthening and coordinating laryngeal musculature and improving efficiency of the relationship among airflow, vocal fold vibration, and supraglottic treatment of phonation

a. Vocal function exercises
b. Chant speech
c. Glottal fry
d. Resonant voice therapy-
E. Semi-occluded vocal tract (SOVT) exercises
F. Inhalation phonation

A

a. Vocal function exercises

25
Q

Treatment texhniques:

Symptomatic therapy characterized by a rhythmic, prosodic pattern that serves as a template for spoken utterances. It is used in therapy to help reduce phonatory effort that results in vocal fatigue and decrease in phonatory capabilities

a. Vocal function exercises
b. Chant speech
c. Glottal fry
d. Resonant voice therapy-
E. Semi-occluded vocal tract (SOVT) exercises
F. Inhalation phonation

A

b. Chant speech

26
Q

Treatment texhniques:

Symptomatic therapy useful for patients with vocal nodules and other problems associated with hyperfunction (e.g., polyps, functional dysphonia, spasmodic dysphonia, vocal fold thickening, and ventricular phonation).

a. Vocal function exercises
b. Chant speech
c. Glottal fry
d. Resonant voice therapy-
E. Semi-occluded vocal tract (SOVT) exercises
F. Inhalation phonation

A

c. Glottal fry

27
Q

Treatment texhniques:

SYMPTOMATIC THERAPY technique used to facilitate true vocal vibration in the presence of habitual ventricular fold phonation, functional aphonia, and muscle tension dysphonia.

A

F. Inhalation phonation

28
Q

Treatment texhniques:

Symptoomatic therapy technique that involves narrowing at any supraglottic point along the vocal tract in order to maximize interaction between vocal fold vibration (sound production) and the vocal tract (the sound filter) and to produce resonant voice.

a. Vocal function exercises
b. Chant speech
c. Glottal fry
d. Resonant voice therapy-
E. Semi-occluded vocal tract (SOVT) exercises
F. Inhalation phonation

A

E. Semi-occluded vocal tract (SOVT) exercises
