Study Notes
Introduction to Voice Disorders
- Voice disorders impact various aspects of life, including academics, social interactions, psychology, vocation, and communication.
Anatomy and Physiology of Voice Production
- The larynx has multiple functions, including phonation, airway protection, assistance in swallowing, and helping in activities demanding highly elevated abdominal pressures.
- Suprasegmental vocalization in babies includes different cries.
Incidence and Prevalence of Voice Disorders
- Incidence refers to the rate of occurrence of new cases, while prevalence indicates how commonly a disease or condition occurs in a population.
- Figures for incidence and prevalence of voice disorders are not precise due to conflicting definitions, methodological differences, and varying patient populations.
- According to Roy et al. (2005), nearly 7% of respondents had a voice disorder at the time of the interview, and nearly 30% had experienced a voice disorder at least once in their lifetime.
- According to Cohen et al. (2012), about 1% of patients received a diagnosis of dysphonia, with females being almost twice as likely as males to be diagnosed, and adults over 70 being two-and-a-half times more likely than those under 70.
Classification of Voice Disorders
- Stemple (2007) classified voice disorders into congenital laryngeal pathologies, pathologies of the vocal fold cover, neurogenic laryngeal pathologies, and pathologies of muscular dysfunction.
- Boone et al. (2020) suggested a classification system including muscle tension voice disorders, functional voice disorders, psychogenic voice disorders, organic voice disorders, and neurogenic voice disorders.
Types of Voice Disorders
- Muscle Tension Dysphonia (MTD) is the most common voice disorder seen in both children and adults, caused by overuse of the respiratory, laryngeal, and supralaryngeal systems.
- Psychogenic Voice Disorders can result from severe emotional trauma or conflict, manifesting as functional dysphonia or functional aphonia.
- Organic Voice Disorders are related to structural deviations of the vocal tract or diseases of specific structures.
