2007, Otolaryngologic Clinics of North AmericaCitation Excerpt :This examination also gives the physician an opportunity to observe any dramatic differences between the qualities and ranges of the patient's speaking voice and the singing voice. A physical examination summary form has proven helpful in organization and documentation [3]. Remembering the admonition not to exceed his or her expertise, the physician who examines many singers can often glean valuable information from a brief attempt to modify an obvious technical error.
The Value of Laryngeal Electromyography in the Evaluation of Laryngeal Motion Abnormalities
2006, Journal of VoiceCitation Excerpt :With severe muscle tension dysphonia, the apparent tremor is present with fatigue only and usually lacks the same reliable periodicity. The last components of the neurolaryngeal examination include isolation, repetition, and opposition testing.11,12 Phonatory tasks that allow one to isolate the abductor, adductor, and tensor muscle groups of the larynx while eliminating supraglottic hyperfunction allow the examiner to detect mild vocal fold hypomobility and differentiate paresis and/or paralysis form cricoarytenoid joint hypomobility.
Mild Vocal Fold Paresis: Understanding Clinical Presentation and Electromyographic Findings
2006, Journal of VoiceCitation Excerpt :All patients with a laryngeal examination that revealed evidence of mild hypomobility of one or both vocal folds in adduction, abduction, and/or longitudinal stretch and who underwent laryngeal electromyography were included in the study. Our technique for assessing mobility of the vocal folds involves assessment of vocal fold mobility, coordination, and use of accessory muscles of phonation.17,19,20 The neurolaryngeal evaluation is performed with a flexible laryngoscope to prevent distortion of the larynx and muscle forces in the larynx that can result from holding the tongue forward for indirect and rigid stroboscopic examinations.
