Background:

The Australian Fiberscopic Profile (AFP) was initially developed for documenting normal voices using continuous light laryngoscopy.
The AFP is currently utilized in five Australian voice clinics for collecting data on dysphonic voices.

Purpose of the Study:

To revise the Australian Fiberscopic Profile (AFP) based on clinical application.
To enhance the clarity of AFP parameters for improved clinical utility in assessing voice disorders.

Main Methods:

The AFP was applied to 40 clients with dysphonic voices in specialized voice clinics.
Feedback from clinical use informed the necessary revisions to the instrument's definitions.

Main Results:

Clinical application revealed a need for clearer parameter definitions within the AFP.
The study identified specific areas for revision to increase the AFP's effectiveness as a clinical tool.

Conclusions:

Revision of the Australian Fiberscopic Profile (AFP) is necessary to optimize its function.
Enhanced clarity of AFP parameters will improve its value in the clinical assessment of dysphonic voices.
