摘要: The purpose of the research was to determine current practices Speech-Language Pathologists (SLPs) who treat presbyphonia, deterioration voice resulting from age-related changes in larynx, observed mostly elderly males. Recent indicates therapy may hold promise for treatment presbyphonia. However, concern exists finding best method this condition. Several physiologic methods have been shown efficacious disorders, yet only one has examined Information about SLPs’ choices will expand knowledge base field. online survey emailed members American Hearing Association’s Special Interest Group 3: Voice and Disorders. Quantitative qualitative were used analyze results survey, which indicated that majority SLPs completed use physiologically-based most commonly identified Vocal Function Exercises Resonant Therapy.
