Abstract

Objective: To assess whether /i:/ ("ee") is the best sound to use during indirect laryngoscopy to produce the optimal view of the larynx.

Design: Prospective study.

Setting: District general hospital otolaryngology outpatient clinic.

Patients: Eighty-seven patients from a general otolaryngology clinic with no laryngeal or pharyngeal symptoms or pathology.

Main outcome measures: The views obtained during indirect laryngoscopy and vocalization of /i:/ ("ee"), /ei/ ("ay"), /[see text]/ ("err"), /a:/ ("ah"), and /eă/ ("air") were graded according to a laryngoscopy grading system.

Results: The greatest number of adequate views of the larynx was achieved by using the sounds /i:/ and /[see text]/. There was no significant difference between /i:/ and /[see text]/ (p = .740), but there were significant differences between /i:/ and /ei/ (p = .019), /i:/ and /a:/ (p = .00000), and /i:/ and /eă/ (p = .00013).

Conclusion: For the optimal view of the larynx during indirect laryngoscopy, we recommend the use of the sounds /i:/ ("ee") and /[see text]/ ("err").

“EE”还是不“EE”。

目的:评价/i:/(“ee”)是否为间接喉镜检查时使用的最佳声音，以获得最佳的喉部视野。设计:前瞻性研究。单位:区综合医院耳鼻喉科门诊。患者:87例来自普通耳鼻喉科门诊，无喉部或咽部症状或病理。主要结果测量:间接喉镜检查和/i:/(“ee”)，/ei/(“ay”)，/[见文本]/(“err”)，/a:/(“ah”)和/ eei /(“air”)的发声所获得的观点根据喉镜评分系统进行评分。结果:使用发音/i:/和/[见原文]/可以获得最多的喉部充分视图。/i:/和/[见文本]/之间没有显著差异(p = .740)，但/i:/和/ei/之间有显著差异(p = .019)， /i:/和/a:/ (p = .00000)， /i:/和/ eei / (p = .00013)。结论:为了在间接喉镜检查中获得最佳的喉部视野，我们建议使用/i:/(“ee”)和/[见文]/(“err”)发音。
