چکیده

Tracheoesophageal (TE) speech has been the current preferred treatment for speech rehabilitation after total laryngectomy, but due to the lack of objective evaluation criteria, it is tough to operate a qualitative analysis on the effects of postoperative speech rehabilitation. The present paper advanced an objective evaluation system involving acoustic characteristics parameters such as fundamental frequency, formants, jitter, shimmer, harmonics to noise ratio(HNR), the maximum phonation time(MPT), sound intensity and so on. The result showed that compared to subjective evaluation system, the application of objective evaluation system evaluated the effects of speech rehabilitation after total laryngectomy more objectively and precisely.

Comparisons of perceptual and acoustic characteristics of tracheoesophageal and excellent esophageal speech.

The results of recent studies have established significant acoustic differences between tracheoesophageal (TE) and conventional esophageal speech. Listener preferences and acoustic differences between TE and excellent esophageal speech were examined in the present investigation. Although, as a group, TE speech was characterized by longer extended phonation, more syllables per breath, and increa...

Contemporary review: Impact of primary neopharyngoplasty on acoustic characteristics of alaryngeal tracheoesophageal voice.

The physiology of the vibratory mechanism in alaryngeal tracheoesophageal speech depends on several factors. The structure and resulting function of the neoglottis (or neopharynx) varies from patient to patient depending on the individual details of the surgical procedure performed, as well as the patient's anatomy. In general, the vibratory segment is a blending of the pharyngeal constrictor m...

بررسی ویژگی‌های آکوستیکی مربوط به کنترل حرکتی گفتار در کودکان لکنتی و غیرلکنتی

Objective Stuttering is a developmental disorder of speech fluency with unknown causes. One of the proposed theories in this field is deficits in speech motor control that is associated with damaged control, timing, and coordination of the speech muscles. Fundamental frequency, fundamental frequency range, intensity, intensity range, and voice onset time are the most important acoustic componen...
