J Voice 2024; 38:965.e1-965.e13. [PMID: 34852954 DOI: 10.1016/j.jvoice.2021.10.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/02/2021] [Revised: 10/14/2021] [Accepted: 10/15/2021] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the process and scientific feasibility of using a portable voice accumulator (PVA) to study carry-over of treatment effects on speech and voice in people with mild-moderate Parkinson's disease. METHODS The study was guided by the checklist in Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials (CONSORT) 2010 statement: extension to randomized pilot and feasibility trials. Participants with Parkinson's disease were recruited within the context of a randomized controlled trial with random allocation to intervention with either HiCommunication, a program targeting speech and communication, or HiBalance, a program targeting balance and strength. Before and after intervention data was collected from standardized studio recordings of speech and registrations of voice use in daily life with the PVA VoxLog. RESULTS Fifteen participants were included in the study and sufficient data was yielded from six of them. Reasons for insufficient data included technical issues and difficulties handling the PVA. Changes in voice sound level from pre to post intervention differed at an individual level when assessed in daily life compared to studio recordings. Registrations in daily life provided information on phonation ratio and ability to adapt voice sound level to environmental noise. CONCLUSION This study highlights the challenges of studying intervention effects on voice use in daily life using a PVA. Improvements of test protocols in future studies are suggested. We exemplify how PVA data may generate a more detailed and ecologically valid picture of voice use complementing studio recordings of speech. Finally, we encourage technical development of more user-friendly PVAs.

J Voice 2024; 38:967.e9-967.e17. [PMID: 35288014 DOI: 10.1016/j.jvoice.2022.01.020] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2021] [Revised: 01/21/2022] [Accepted: 01/24/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To verify whether the dimensions of different segments of the oropharyngeal cavity have different proportions between Parkinson's disease patients and vocally healthy subjects and investigate whether the measurements of these subjects' oropharyngeal geometry associate with their acoustic measurements of voice. METHOD Quantitative, descriptive, cross-sectional, and retrospective study with secondary data, approved by the Human Research Ethics Committee under no. 4.325.029. We used vocal samples and data from the oropharyngeal geometry of 40 subjects - 20 with Parkinson's disease stages I to III and 20 who formed the control group, matched for sex and age. Each group had 10 males and 10 females, mean age of 61 years (±6.0). Formant (F1, F2, and F3) and cepstral measures of the sustained vowel /ε/ were extracted and arranged in the database to determine their values using Praat software. The data were descriptively analyzed, with statistics generated with R software. The proportion of oropharyngeal geometry measurements was arranged by mean values and coefficients of variation. Pearson's linear correlation test was applied to relate voice parameters to oropharyngeal geometry, considering P < 0.05, and linear regression test, to justify F2. RESULTS The Parkinson's disease group showed a linear relationship between oral cavity length and F1 in males (P = 0.04) and between glottal area and F2 in females (P = 0.00); linear relationships were established according to age in both groups, and a regression model for F2 was estimated (R2 = 0.61). There was no difference between pathological and healthy voices; there was a difference in the proportional relationship of oropharyngeal geometry between the groups. CONCLUSION The proportional relationship of oropharyngeal geometry differs between the Parkinson's disease group and the control group, as well as the relationship between oropharyngeal geometry and formant and cepstral values of voice according to the subjects' sex and age.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to assess the outcome following continuous tactile biofeedback of voice sound level administered, with a portable voice accumulator to individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD). METHOD Nine out of 16 participants with PD completed a 4-week intervention program where biofeedback of voice sound level was administered with the portable voice accumulator VoxLog during speech in daily life. The feedback, a tactile vibration signal from the device, was activated when the wearer used a voice sound level below an individually predetermined threshold level, reminding the wearer to increase voice sound level during speech. Voice use was registered in daily life with the VoxLog during the intervention period as well as during one baseline week, one follow-up week post intervention and 1 week 3 months post intervention. Self-to-other ratio (SOR), which is the difference between voice sound level and environmental noise, was studied in multiple noise ranges. RESULTS A significant increase in SOR across all noise ranges of 2.28 dB (SD: 0.55) was seen for participants with scores above the cut-off for normal function (>26 points) on the cognitive screening test Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) (n = 5). No significant increase was seen for the group of participants with MoCA scores below 26 (n = 4). Forty-four percent ended their participation early, all which scored below 26 on MoCA (n = 7). CONCLUSIONS Biofeedback administered in daily life regarding voice level may help individuals with PD to increase their voice sound level in relation to environmental noise in daily life, but only for a limited subset. Only participants with normal cognitive function as screened by MoCA improved their voice sound level in relation to environmental noise.

Abstract
PURPOSE This systematic review represents an update to previous reviews of the literature addressing behavioral management of respiratory/phonatory dysfunction in individuals with dysarthria due to neurodegenerative disease. METHOD Multiple electronic database searches and hand searches of prominent speech-language pathology journals were conducted in accordance with Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses standards. RESULTS The search yielded 1,525 articles, from which 88 met inclusion criteria and were reviewed by two blinded co-investigators. A large range of therapeutic approaches have been added to the evidence base since the last review, including expiratory muscle strength training, singing, and computer- and device-driven programs, as well as a variety of treatment modalities, including teletherapy. Evidence for treatment in several different population groups-including cerebellar ataxia, myotonic dystrophy, autosomal recessive spastic ataxia of Charlevoix-Saguenay, Huntington's disease, multiple system atrophy, and Lewy body dementia-were added to the current review. Synthesis of evidence quality provided strong evidence in support of only one behavioral intervention: Lee Silverman Voice Treatment Program (LSVT LOUD) in people with Parkinson's disease. No other treatment approach or population included in this review demonstrated more than limited evidence, reflecting that these approaches/populations require urgent further examination. CONCLUSION Suggestions about where future research efforts could be significantly strengthened and how clinicians can apply research findings to their practice are provided.

Finnimore A, Theodoros D, Rumbach AF. Clinical outcomes of PD Check-In, a model for supported self-managed maintenance of speech in Parkinson's disease: A Phase 1 study. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF LANGUAGE & COMMUNICATION DISORDERS 2023; 58:241-255. [PMID: 36036751 DOI: 10.1111/1460-6984.12772] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/25/2021] [Accepted: 07/11/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND For many people with Parkinson's disease (PWPD), the long-term maintenance of speech following intensive treatment remains elusive. PD Check-In, a model for supported self-managed maintenance of speech following LSVT LOUD® , was developed and evaluated. AIMS To evaluate the impact of PD Check-In on vocal intensity and level of satisfaction of PWPD and their communication partners (CPs) over 24 months following LSVT LOUD. METHODS & PROCEDURES A repeated-measures study design examined the impact of PD Check-In on the speech of 16 PWPD. Participants received LSVT LOUD followed by PD Check-In at 6 and 12 weeks, and 6, 12 and 24 months after treatment. Outcome measures included acoustic measures of vocal intensity (sound pressure level-SPL) during sustained phonation, functional phrases, reading, and monologue, and satisfaction questionnaires for PWPD and their CPs. OUTCOMES & RESULTS A significant treatment effect for time (p < 0.01) was identified for all SPL variables. Planned comparisons showed significant improvements for each variable pre- to post-LSVT LOUD. There was a significant maintenance effect for SPL maximum sustained phonation only, post-LSVT LOUD to 24 months. SPL remained significantly above baseline for functional phrases and maximum sustained phonation at 24 months. Participants' satisfaction with PD Check-In was high, at 93.75% for PWPD and 79.99% for CPs, at 24 months post-treatment. Long intervals between appointments led PWPD to feel less motivated about speech practice but more confident in self-management. CONCLUSIONS & IMPLICATIONS For PWPD and CPs, maintenance of speech following LSVT LOUD encompasses more than acoustic outcomes. WHAT THIS PAPER ADDS What is already known on this subject? Maintenance of speech following LSVT LOUD has been shown to be variable in individual and group models. For PWPD and their CPs, a model for speech maintenance supports their expectation of sustained treatment effect over time and meets their changing needs for speech and language therapy services. Supported self-management is a model under investigation for long-term maintenance of speech. What this paper adds to existing knowledge? This study presents the impact of five individual PD Check-In interventions on the maintenance of vocal intensity (SPL) of 16 PWPD over 24 months following LSVT LOUD. PWPD and CPs reported a high level of satisfaction with PD Check-In independent of acoustic outcomes. What are the potential or actual clinical implications of this work? Participant satisfaction with PD Check-In is derived from multiple factors and not limited to acoustic outcomes post-LSVT LOUD. Further investigation of the efficacy of PD Check-In to support the perceived maintenance of speech of PWPD and CPs is warranted.

Abstract
RESUMO Objetivo: caracterizar a terapia vocal com abordagem respiratória em idosos disfônicos. Métodos: a busca foi realizada nas bases PubMed, BVS, Scopus, Web of Science e Embase. Foram incluídos estudos originais, nos idiomas inglês, espanhol e português, que tratassem sobre terapia vocal associada à abordagem respiratória na população idosa. Foram analisadas as variáveis gênero, faixa etária, etiologia associada, frequência e duração da sessão, dosagem de exercícios, intervenção e benefícios. Resultados: foram encontrados 1.425 artigos, porém, apenas nove foram incluídos na revisão. Na terapia vocal para idosos, destacaram-se as estratégias do Exercício de Função Vocal e o Método Lee Silverman®, além de outras, como o ParkinSong e o uso do tubo submerso em água. Tais abordagens modificam a função da musculatura laríngea, o impulso e o suporte respiratório, bem como o treino para aumento da intensidade vocal. Os principais resultados terapêuticos foram: melhora nos parâmetros perceptivo-auditivos, acústicos, aerodinâmicos, tempo máximo de fonação, nível de esforço fonatório e qualidade vocal. Conclusão: a terapia vocal com abordagem respiratória caracterizou-se pelo uso de estratégias direcionadas tanto à população idosa de forma geral, quanto a populações com disfonia neurológica, cujos resultados mostraram melhoria no controle de intensidade, frequência, ressonância e coordenação pneumofônica.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Purpose: to characterize voice therapy with a respiratory approach in dysphonic older people. Methods: a search made in PubMed, VHL, Scopus, Web of Science, and EMBASE. Original studies in English, Spanish, and Portuguese, addressing voice therapy in combination with a respiratory approach in the older population, were included. The analysis encompassed sex, age, associated etiology, session frequency and duration, exercise dosage, intervention, and benefits. Results: altogether, 1,425 articles were found, of which only nine were included in the review. In voice therapy for older people, the following strategies stood out: Vocal Function Exercises, Lee Silverman Voice Treatment®, ParkinSong, and tubes immersed in water. These approaches change the laryngeal muscle function and respiratory impulse and support and increase vocal intensity. The main therapeutic findings included improved auditory-perceptual, acoustic, and aerodynamic parameters, maximum phonation time, phonatory effort level, and voice quality. Conclusion: voice therapy with a respiratory approach characteristically used strategies aimed at both the general older population and those with neurological dysphonia. Their results showed improvement in frequency, resonance, intensity control, and breathing/phonation coordination.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Speech and communication problems are common in Parkinson's disease (PD) and can result in social withdrawal and reduced quality of life. Intervention may improve symptoms but transfer and maintenance remain challenging for many. Access to treatment may also be limited. Group intervention incorporating principles for experience-dependent plasticity may address these challenges. The aim of this study was to develop and study feasibility aspects of a new intervention program for group training of speech and communication in people with PD. MATERIALS & METHODS Development and content of the program called HiCommunication is described. Core target areas are voice, articulation, word-finding and memory. Five participants with mild-moderate PD completed this feasibility trial. Attendance rate and possible adverse events as well as the participants' experiences were documented. A speech recording and dysarthria testing were completed to study feasibility of the assessment procedure and evaluate possible changes in voice sound level and intelligibility. RESULTS Attendance rate was 89%. No adverse events occurred. Participants reported a positive experience and limited fatigue. Assessment was completed in approximately 30 min and was well tolerated. Four of five participants had an increased voice sound level during text-reading postintervention and mean intelligibility improved. CONCLUSIONS Results indicate that HiCommunication is feasible for people with mild-moderate PD. The program was appreciated and well tolerated. Positive outcomes regarding voice sound level and intelligibility were observed; however, the number of participants was very limited. The results motivate that effects of HiCommunication are further studied in a randomized controlled trial, which is ongoing.

Abstract
Purpose The purpose of this work was to study how voice use in daily life is impacted by Parkinson's disease (PD), specifically if there is a difference in voice sound level and phonation ratio during everyday activities for individuals with PD and matched healthy controls. A further aim was to study how variations in environmental noise impact voice use. Method Long-term registration of voice use during 1 week in daily life was performed for 21 participants with PD (11 male, 10 female) and 21 matched healthy controls using the portable voice accumulator VoxLog. Voice use was assessed through registrations of spontaneous speech in different ranges of environmental noise in daily life and in a controlled studio recording setting. Results Individuals with PD use their voice 50%-60% less than their matched healthy controls in daily life. The difference increases in high levels of environmental noise. Individuals with PD used an average voice sound level in daily life that was 8.11 dB (female) and 6.7 dB (male) lower than their matched healthy controls. Difference in mean voice sound level for individuals with PD and controls during spontaneous speech during a controlled studio registration was 3.0 dB for the female group and 4.1 dB for the male group. Conclusions The observed difference in voice use in daily life between individuals with PD and matched healthy controls is a 1st step to objectively quantify the impact of PD on communicative participation. The variations in voice use in different levels of environmental noise and when comparing controlled and variable environments support the idea that the study of voice use should include methods to assess function in less controlled situations outside the clinical setting.
