Occupational aspects of irritable larynx syndrome

Abstract: Purpose of review The aim of this article is to provide an update on occupational aspects of irritable larynx syndrome (ILS). Recent findings It is being increasingly recognized that ILS is common amongst certain occupations. This is particularly true of occupations that require frequent voice use such as teachers; where there is exposure to workplace irritants such as World Trade Center responders; or mechanical factors that cause laryngeal dysfunction… Show more

“…Three of the fourteen people reported preceding URTI which has previously been suggested as a cause of vagal neuropathy [ 8 , 20 ]. Three of the fourteen reported preceding occupational inhalational exposure, a recognized trigger factor of irritable larynx syndrome [ 78 ]. Trauma to laryngeal nerves is another recognized cause of neuropathic symptoms [ 29 ] and was reported in 2/14 people (one iatrogenic during thyroid surgery and one due to external trauma), both of which exhibited motor signs of weakness on videostrobolaryngoscopy.…”

“…Los receptores sensoriales laríngeos se dividen en cuatro categorías funcionales: receptores de frío (flujo) que responden a los cambios de temperatura; receptores irritantes que responden a deformaciones mecánicas, irritantes (incluida el agua) y aerosoles; receptores de presión que responden a cambios en la presión transmural laríngea; y receptores de impulsión que responden al movimiento laríngeo. Los receptores irritantes se consideran actores principales del reflejo glótico 3 .…”

“…La abducción alcanza el ancho máximo a mitad de la inspiración 1,5 . Por definición, la OLI es el cierre paradójico no fisiológico de los pliegues vocales en la inspiración, con o sin cierre concomitante en la espiración 3 . Los pliegues vocales pueden aducirse a lo largo de toda su longitud, o bien en sus dos tercios anteriores dejando un hiato posterior, observado en el 6% de los casos 13 .…”
