Summary

Phoniatric rehabilitation using Seeman's method effectively reduced glottic incompetence and dysphonia in patients with unilateral laryngeal palsies. This voice therapy improved speech clarity for nearly half of the patients, with most experiencing only mild residual symptoms.

Area of Science:

  • Otolaryngology
  • Speech and Hearing Science
  • Rehabilitation Medicine

Context:

  • Phoniatric rehabilitation aims to restore satisfactory voice quality.
  • Voice quality is influenced by vocal cord function and phonation automatism.
  • Unilateral laryngeal palsies present significant challenges to voice production.

Purpose:

  • To evaluate the efficacy of Seeman's method of laryngeal compression in treating unilateral laryngeal palsies.
  • To assess the impact of phoniatric rehabilitation on glottic incompetence and voice quality.
  • To determine patient outcomes following treatment for vocal cord paralysis.

Summary:

  • A study of 50 patients with vocal cord palsy, predominantly caused by neck surgery (38%), utilized Seeman's method for laryngeal compression.

  • Post-treatment, 48% of patients achieved satisfactory speech and voice clarity, with 50% experiencing mild dysphonia and significant reduction in glottic incompetence (p < 0.01).
  • The study confirmed that left recurrent nerve paralysis is more frequent and highlighted the effectiveness of phoniatric rehabilitation for unilateral laryngeal palsies.

    • Impact:

    • Seeman's method offers an efficient phoniatric rehabilitation approach for unilateral laryngeal palsies.
    • The treatment significantly diminishes glottic incompetence and dysphonia, improving patient voice quality.
    • This study supports team-based care and suggests alternative therapies for non-responsive cases.
