Abstract
Objectives: To compare quality of esophageal and prosthetic speech following total laryngectomy. Patients and Methods: Speech features of patients with esophageal speech (n=10) and voice prosthesis (n=10) were compared with regard to "maximum phonation time," "mean fundamental frequency," and "median intensity. Results: In esophageal group, maximum phonation time was 4.6±2.99 seconds, mean fundamental frequency was 67.4±3.83 Hz, and median intensity was 71.4±4.79 dB. In the prosthetic group these were 14.3±1.49 seconds, 91.0±2.41 Hz, and 80.4±3.53 dB, respectively (p<0.05).Conclusion: Patients using prosthesis for voice restoration had satisfactory speech than those using esophageal speech.
Özet
Amaç: Total larenjektomiden sonra özofajeal ve prostetik konuşmanın ses kalitesini karşılaştırmak. Hastalar ve Yöntemler: Total larenjektomiden sonra özofajeal (n=10) ve ses protezi (n=10) kullanan hastaların konuşma özellikleri "maksimum fonasyon süresi," "ortalama fundamental frekans" ve "konuşma şiddeti" dikkate alınarak karşılaştırıldı. Bulgular: Özofajeal konuşma grubunda, maksimum fonasyon süresi 4.6±2.99 saniye, ortalama fundamental frekans 67.4±3.83 Hz, konuşma şiddeti 71.4±4.79 dB bulundu. Protezli grupta bu değerler sırasıyla 14.3±1.49 saniye, 91.0±2.41 Hz, 80.4±3.53 dB idi (p<0.05).Sonuç: Ses restorasyonu için protez kullanan hastalarda özofajeal konuşmalı olanlara göre daha tatmin edici ses kalitesi sağlanmaktadır.
