“…The List of Vocal Signs and Symptoms (LVSS) ( Table 1) was used to assess the number of total and work-related vocal signs and symptoms in each group. The results showed that teachers at vocal risk presented a larger number of work-related vocal signs and symptoms compared with that of vocally healthy teachers, corroborating the findings of another study (15) conducted with teachers with vocal complaints who sought voice treatment, teachers with vocal complaints who did not seek voice treatment, and vocally healthy teachers, which verified that teachers with vocal complaints generally present higher mean of vocal signs and symptoms than healthy teachers.…”

RESUMO Objetivo Verificar o desconforto de trato vocal autorreferido por professores, comparando com a autoavaliação vocal, nos momentos de pré-jornada, pós-período de quatro horas e pós-período de oito horas de aula. Método Participaram do estudo 50 professores, 42 mulheres e oito homens. O valor de corte da Escala de Sintomas Vocais – ESV dividiu os professores em Grupo Risco Vocal – GRV e Grupo Vocalmente Saudável – GVS e a Lista de Sinais e Sintomas Vocais – LSS foi utilizada para identificação da quantidade de sintomas vocais em cada grupo. Posteriormente, os grupos foram avaliados em três momentos (pré-jornada, pós-quatro horas e pós-oito horas) pela Escala de Desconforto do Trato Vocal – EDTV e autoavaliação vocal. Resultados GRV apresentou mais sinais e sintomas vocais da LSS que o GVS (total: GS=0,56 / GRV=1,60, p<0,001; relacionados ao trabalho GVS=0,79 / GRV=2,49, p<0,001). O GVS não relatou mudança no desconforto, tanto para frequência (p=1,132) quanto para intensidade (p=0,431) e apresentou melhor autoavaliação vocal (pré = 0,67; pós-quatro horas = 0,96; pós-oito horas = 0,96; p=0,007). Já o GRV apresentou mais desconforto no trato vocal após quatro e oito horas, tanto para frequência (pré = 1,60; pós-quatro horas = 2,49; pós-oito horas 2,95; p<0,001) quanto para intensidade (pré = 1,79; pós-quatro horas = 2,52; pós-oito horas = 3,12; p<0,001), com pior autoavaliação vocal (pré = 2,00; pós-quatro horas = 2,42; pós-oito horas = 3,00; p<0,001). Conclusão Professores com risco vocal têm pior autoavaliação de voz e maior desconforto do trato vocal, que aumenta durante o dia de atividade letiva.

“…This can be explained by the fact that coping is a single factor that has more to do with the life story of the individual than with the signs and symptoms and aspects of communication for this population. The correlation between coping and vocal symptoms, but with the use of other specific protocol, did not show results either even among patients with behavioral dysphonia (30) . This finding reinforces the need to educate the patient as to how voice signs and symptoms can be an important sign of voice overuse and how much it can increase the risk of a worsening in communications (30) .…”

This finding reinforces the need to educate the patient as to how voice signs and symptoms can be an important sign of voice overuse and how much it can increase the risk of a worsening in communications (30) . It also shows that one cannot ignore the approach of indirect therapy such as orientation and vocal hygiene, even in individuals with neurological and degenerative disease.…”

Purpose: To investigate, in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD), the coping strategies; the most reported vocal symptoms; and the relation between coping, voice symptoms, and communicative aspects. Methods: Seventythree subjects were included in the sample, 33 of which were participants in the experimental group (EG) with diagnosis of PD and 40 were control subjects, that is, healthy and without vocal complaints. They underwent the following procedures: application of Voice Symptoms Scale (VoiSS), Brazilian Version; Voice DisabilityCoping Questionnaire (VDCQ), Brazilian Version; and the questionnaire Living with Dysarthria (LwD). Results:The EG presented deviations in all protocols: VDCQ, with the most frequently coping strategy being "selfcontrol," VoiSS, with "Impairment" as the most prevalent domain, and LwD, presenting changes in all sections.Vocal signs and symptoms and communicative aspects were shown to have a regular correlation with coping.The correlation between vocal symptoms and communicative aspects was as follows: the greater the impairment in communication, the greater the VoiSS emotional scores and the more they complaint of voice-related signs and symptoms. Conclusion: Patients with PD use all kinds of coping strategies, but prefer using self-control.They present several vocal signs and symptoms, and "Impairment" was the most prevalent domain. There are difficulties in all aspects of communication. The higher the occurrence of vocal signs and symptoms, the more the patient reports the difficulties of living with dysarthria, particularly when deviations affect the emotional domain.

“…The assessment process may involve four main domains: physical and psychological functioning, social interaction and symptoms related to the disease treatment (15) . The way the patient deals with the disease significantly influences the treatment and results (17,18) . He will have to deal with the laryngectomy impairments, requiring coping.…”

Introduction:The laryngeal cancer treatment causes significant changes in the quality of life. Purpose: To assess and compare the vocal handicap and the coping strategies to deal with the vocal handicap resulting from supracricoid and total laryngectomy. Methods: Analytical, prospective observational study of groups of subjects with the same disease. Seventeen subjects were assessed and divided in two groups; the first with eight male subjects submitted to supracricoid partial laryngectomy, with cricohyoidoepiglottopexy, mean age of 67,5; and a second group with nine subjects, two women and seven men, submitted to total laryngectomy, mean age of 64,3. All subjects answered the Vocal Handicap Index-10 (VHI-10) and the Coping Strategies in Dysphonia Protocol (PEED-27). Results: The mean values of raw scores obtained with the VHI-10 by the two groups did not reveal significant differences, matching studies involving dysphonic patients. Both groups use an elevated number of coping strategies for vocal problems: the first group presented mean raw scores of 65,75 and the second group, 59,22. Conclusion:The comparison between subjects submitted to supracricoid laryngectomy and total laryngectomy does not evidence differences concerning the self-assessment of voice, vocal handicap and coping strategies to deal with vocal problems. Both groups use more than the double of coping strategies for vocal problems, with a predominant focus on emotion.
