“…4 It has been used to measure the MPT for all age groups, from the younger to the older population, with accumulating standardised data. [5][6][7][8][9] MPT is an important assessment tool that has been applied in a variety of areas related to oral rehabilitation, including swallowing screening 10 and voluntary cough force screening, 11 as well as speech.…”

BackgroundMaximum phonation time (MPT) is used to assess speech and other oral rehabilitation‐related issues. Various factors contribute to MPT decline in older individuals. Although the impact of physical frailty on MPT has been suggested, this has not been conclusively determined.ObjectiveTo examine the relationship between MPT and physical frailty in community‐dwelling individuals aged ≥60 years who were independently mobile. MPT‐associated factors were investigated.MethodsThis cross‐sectional study analysed the clinical data of 122 patients (age [interquartile range]: 80.0 [74.0–83.0] years) without dementia who visited a neurology department between 1 February 2021 and 31 January 2023. Investigated factors included age, sex, weight, height, body mass index, smoking history, grip strength, functional independence measure, vital capacity, oral diadochokinesis, MPT and the Japanese Cardiovascular Health Study score. Physical frailty was assessed based on the total score from five items (weight loss, weakness, exhaustion, slowness and low physical activity). The relationship between MPT and physical frailty was examined using Spearman's rank correlation coefficient and hierarchical multiple regression analysis.ResultsThe MPT was negatively correlated with age (r = −0.347, p < .01) and physical frailty (r = −0.681, p < .01) and positively correlated with vital capacity (r = 0.474, p < .01) and height (r = 0.248, p < .01). The hierarchical multiple regression analysis, conducted with MPT as the dependent variable, demonstrated that physical frailty (β = −.59, 95% confidence interval: −0.74 to 0.43, p < .001) had a strong influence on MPT.ConclusionIn older individuals, MPT is associated with physical frailty. When assessing MPT in clinical settings, it is advisable to perform a concurrent assessment of physical frailty.

Maximum phonation time (MPT) evaluates maximum vocal capabilities and can be used to assess the effectiveness of behavioral and medical therapy interventions. There is a literature gap regarding MPT normalcy data for Pakistani children. Objective: To determine the Maximum Phonation Time of School Aged Children in Pakistan and its association with participant variables and impact of the 6-minute walk test on participant vitals. Methods: This cross-sectional survey was conducted in Rawalpindi and Islamabad on typical healthy school-aged children from August 2021 to January 2022. The sample included both genders, aged 6-13 years having normal language. Tools used included a basic demographic sheet, token test, stopwatch, growth chart, sphygmomanometer, pulse oximeter, and 6-minute walk test. Blood Pressure, oxygen saturation, heart rate, and MPT were calculated before and after the six-minute walk test (6-MWT). Data were analyzed by using SPSS version 21.0. Results: Results show MPT of 13.11 ± 3.93 seconds. Scores were significantly (p= 0.000) higher for higher age groups. 6-MWT revealed a significantly (p=0.000) higher post walk SPO2 (99.16 ± 0.89 Vs.97.82 ± 1.45), HR (105.94 ± 14.53 vs 92.94 ± 14.79). systolic (112.46±13.40 vs. 107.25 ± 13.66) and diastolic blood pressure (79.07 ± 8.17 Vs.73.84 ± 8.50) compared to pre walk. A significantly (p<0.001) strong positive correlation was noted for age(r=.515), weight (r=.460), height (r=.491) and distance (r=.281). Conclusions: MPT of Pakistani 6-13 years children is 13.11 ± 3.93 seconds with significantly higher MPT for higher age groups. MPT has a strong positive correlation with age, weight, height and distance and increases after walking. MPT values for boys were slightly higher than for girls.
