Abstract

Objective: This study aims to show preliminary results of the validation the Comparative pre/post-treatment Self-Assessment of Dysphonia (CSAD) questionnaire in assessing vocal quality and phonatory fatigue following treatment for dysphonia.

Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 51 patients who underwent phonosurgery for various vocal diseases. Patients completed the CSAD questionnaire post-treatment, alongside the Voice Handicap Index (VHI-10) administered before and after treatment. Correlation analyses were performed between CSAD scores and differences in pre- and post-treatment VHI-10 scores.

Results: The CSAD demonstrated simplicity and ease of interpretation, requiring no pre-treatment administration. Despite its streamlined nature, it exhibited a satisfactory level of correlation with post-treatment VHI-10 scores, indicating its effectiveness in evaluating treatment outcomes for dysphonia.

Conclusions: The CSAD emerges as a simple yet effective tool for self-assessing vocal quality and phonatory fatigue after treatment in patients with dysphonia. Its straightforwardness and post-treatment administration make it a manageable and valuable addition to clinical practice, streamlining assessment processes without compromising accuracy.

比较治疗前/治疗后语音障碍自我评估问卷的验证：初步结果。

目的：本研究旨在初步验证CSAD（比较治疗前/治疗后语音障碍自我评估）问卷在评估语音障碍治疗后语音质量和发音疲劳方面的作用。方法：对51例因各种声带疾病行声部手术的患者进行回顾性分析。患者在治疗后完成了CSAD问卷，并在治疗前后进行了语音障碍指数（VHI-10）。对CSAD评分与治疗前后VHI-10评分差异进行相关性分析。结果：CSAD简单易懂，不需要预处理。尽管它是流线型的，但它与治疗后的VHI-10评分显示出令人满意的相关性，表明它在评估语音障碍治疗结果方面的有效性。结论：CSAD是一种简单而有效的自我评估发声障碍患者治疗后音质和发声疲劳的工具。它的直接性和治疗后管理使其成为临床实践中易于管理和有价值的补充，在不影响准确性的情况下简化评估过程。

期刊介绍： Acta Otorhinolaryngologica Italica first appeared as “Annali di Laringologia Otologia e Faringologia” and was founded in 1901 by Giulio Masini. It is the official publication of the Italian Hospital Otology Association (A.O.O.I.) and, since 1976, also of the Società Italiana di Otorinolaringoiatria e Chirurgia Cervico-Facciale (S.I.O.Ch.C.-F.). The journal publishes original articles (clinical trials, cohort studies, case-control studies, cross-sectional surveys, and diagnostic test assessments) of interest in the field of otorhinolaryngology as well as clinical techniques and technology (a short report of unique or original methods for surgical techniques, medical management or new devices or technology), editorials (including editorial guests – special contribution) and letters to the Editor-in-Chief. Articles concerning science investigations and well prepared systematic reviews (including meta-analyses) on themes related to basic science, clinical otorhinolaryngology and head and neck surgery have high priority.
