Biomechanics Study of the Voice

The voice is the final result of a biomechanics developed by the vocal folds and the biomechanics developed by the vocal folds is a consequence of functional and structural factors dependent on the histology of the folds themselves.

Voice Clinical Systems approaches that biomechanics from the analysis of a sample of the signal radiated at the level of the lips. From the same, and using a novel and exclusive processing methodology, performs the extraction of correlates that allow to infer with great precision the biomechanics of the vocal folds during phonation.

...

The Biomechanics Correlates include information related to Cycle Phases, GAP, Mass Effect, Mucosa Wave Correlates, Tension, Glottal Force, etc... and they offer a key information for the screening and characterization of the pathology of the voice associated to injury or functional alteration of the vocal cords.

  17. An edema correlation observed during the closing phase (Increased or decreased)
  18. Adequacy ratio MW Opening: An edema correlation observed during the opening phase (Increased or decreased)
  19. It correlates with: (a) minimal structural alteration, (b) structural alteration but with small glottal impact, (c) biomechanical behavior that favors pathology or that causes a structural alteration of the vibratil zone
    • (1): IG (-) Refers to a non-significant or compensated Glottal Impact
  20. It correlates with a possible structural alteration in the mass of the free edge or in the supraglottic structures, in the case of the latter with an undesirable participation of the same during the vibration (Examples: Nodule, Sulcus, Cysts, Ventricular Bands, etc). Causing a mass effect, by increase or decrease.
    • (2): IG (+) Refers to a significant and uncompensated Glottal Impact
    • (3): In order for the structural alteration to be detected, there must be an active participation in the generation of sound.
MONITORING AND ANALYSIS OF THE VOICE OF PATIENTS IN CONFINEMENT

IS ALREADY AVAILABLE FOR PATIENTS WITH IOS or ANDROID DEVICES
¿ How does it work ?
The professional specialist obtains his identification code in and:

  • He contacts with the patient to request the download of the latest version of the Voice Clinical Systems® OnlineLab App from the Apple Store.
  • He provides him with his identification code, as well as protocol details on how to record and save the recording.

The patient WITHOUT NEEDING AN EXTERNAL MICROPHONE :

  • Download the OnlineLab app and register as a new user (ATTENTION: DO NOT mark during the sign 'I'm a health professional'). Sign in as Patient.
  • Performs voice recording according to the established protocol.
  • Clicking on the name of the recording select 'Request report' to send it by writing the identification code provided.

The professional specialist receives an email and will see his list of recordings updated with the new sample with the possibility of listening, evaluating whether it is appropriate and requesting the corresponding report of the biomechanical study of the voice.
