“…Vocal symptoms can be classified as auditory and proprioceptive 4 . Proprioceptive symptoms are related to patient kinesthesia: that is, they are those that the patient reports feeling, such as burning, tightness, dryness, an itch and lump in the throat, a sore, sensitive or irritated throat 5 , and a tickle, among others, while auditory symptoms refer to what can be heard and perceived by patients themselves, such as hoarseness, a weak voice, shakiness, and difficulty in reaching high notes, among others.…”

Purpose: to compare auditory, proprioceptive and total symptoms in dysphonia patients pre-and postgroup therapy, and associate the number of vocal symptoms with gender, age, professional use of voice, and laryngeal diagnosis variables. Methods: the sample included 27 patients enrolled in therapeutic groups. All had auditory, proprioceptive, and total vocal symptoms from the Vocal Screening Protocol (VSP), pre-and post-group therapy, which consisted of eight meetings, with the first and last being for the implementation of the VSP; in the second to seventh, speech therapy sessions were performed using an eclectic approach. Results: the participants were adults, mostly female, and predominantly with laryngeal diagnoses involving lesions in the membranous portion of the vocal folds. There was a significant reduction in proprioceptive and total vocal symptoms when pre-and post-therapy was compared. The following vocal symptoms were significantly minimized post-therapy: vocal fatigue, dry throat, lumps in the throat, effort and discomfort when speaking. There was a connection between post group therapy (proprioceptive, auditory, and total) vocal symptoms and the female and laryngeal diagnosis involving mass lesions in the membranous portion of the vocal folds variables. There was no connection between post-therapy vocal symptoms and age or professional use of voice. Conclusion: there was a reduction in total and proprioceptive vocal symptoms reported by patients, comparing pre-and post-therapy. There was a connection between females and diagnoses of mass lesions in the membranous portion of the vocal folds and total, proprioceptive, and auditory symptoms post-voice therapy. Age and professional use of voice were not associated with reduced vocal symptoms.

Métodos: participaram 27 pacientes inseridos em grupos terapêuticos. Todos responderam aos sintomas vocais auditivos, proprioceptivos e totais do Protocolo de Triagem Vocal (PTV) pré e pós-terapia de grupo, que constou de oito encontros, sendo o primeiro e último para aplicação do PTV; do segundo ao sétimo foram realizadas sessões terapêuticas fonoaudiológicas de abordagem eclética. Resultados: os participantes eram adultos, maioria do sexo feminino e diagnóstico laríngeo predominante de lesão na porção membranosa das pregas vocais. Pôde-se perceber que houve redução significante dos sintomas vocais proprioceptivos e totais quando se comparou pré e pós-terapia. Minimizaram significantemente pós-terapia os sintomas vocais: fadiga vocal, garganta seca, bolo na garganta, esforço e desconforto ao falar. Houve associação entre sintomas vocais (proprioceptivos, auditivos e totais) pós--terapia de grupo com as variávei...

“…Studies argue about the difficulty of perception of health / disease process of teachers and notice the first signs of voice alteration (6,10,22) . There are, also, teachers with adequate perception of their voice changes, but without effective initiatives, indicating that the combination of vocal speech therapy evaluation with the evaluation made by the teacher contributes to more comprehensive view of the teacher's voice (1) . Despite the high prevalence of vocal symptoms, teachers can not recognize the need to deal with dysphonia, considering it inherent to the profession.…”

“…Dysphonia can manifest in proprioceptive and auditory vocal symptoms, which occur in different degrees of intensity, depending on the clinical picture (1) . The professional who uses the voice to develop his own work needs a certain production and / or vocal quality to keep the exercise of his activity (2) .…”

“…Discusses the difficulty of perception of the health / disease process, because even with high frequency of reported symptoms, the teachers are satisfied with their voices (6,10) . It is noted, also, situations where there is adequate perception of vocal alteration, but without effective measures (1) . Studies show that the quality of teachers' life is related to the vocal self-perception of dysphonia (2,6,10,11) , which may be associated with vocal symptoms mentioned (12) .…”

Purpose: Check the number of vocal symptoms reported by teachers and the relationship with the self-perception of the limitations of daily activities associated to the voice, personal, occupational and clinical aspects. Methods: Refers to a study performed by the analysis of secondary data from medical records of teachers attended at the voice ambulatory of a teaching hospital. The informations of interest were: age, number of taught shifts, parallel activities to teaching, fan use, conversational noise, dust, construction noise, external noise, screaming, smoking habit, hydration, pellet use, physical activity associated with speech, type and degree of dysphonia, proprioceptive vocal symptoms and responses to the Protocol of the Profile of Participation and Vocal Activities (PPVA). It was realized a descriptive and inferential analysis. Results: Were collected informations of 103 medical records, where it was found high prevalence of vocal symptoms, with the most frequent: fatigue after prolonged use of the voice, dry throat, throat clearing and burning. It was observed an association between the number of vocal symptoms and the scream habit, conversational noise and perception of the impact of dysphonia by teachers. The number of self-reported vocal symptoms was positively correlated with all parameters evaluated by PPVA. Conclusion: There is high frequency of proprioceptive vocal symptoms among the teachers. The noise of conversation and scream habit are associated with the number of vocal symptoms, as well as the parameters of self-perception of the impact of dysphonia contained in the PPVA.
