Abstract

Many musicians experience performance-related health problems (PRHPs), most of which are preventable. Music educators play a primary role in the prevention of PRHPs in the music classroom. Stress velopharyngeal insufficiency (SVPI) in wind musicians is a condition affecting soft palate closure, causing air to escape through the nose while blowing through the mouth into the instrument. Although SVPI is serious and potentially career ending for wind instrumentalists, there are limited resources for music educators on SVPI prevalence, causes, management, and prevention. Therefore, this synthesis of existing literature on SVPI in musicians provides music educators with awareness and understanding of SVPI. Information on SVPI symptoms, treatment pathways, prevention, and recommendations for practical solutions to manage SVPI in the music studio are given. A comprehensive understanding of terminology, symptoms, prevalence, and solutions may equip music educators to intervene more effectively in identifying SVPI in their classroom or studio.

音乐家压力性咽功能不全的文献综合:给音乐教育者的建议

许多音乐家都会遇到与表演相关的健康问题，其中大多数是可以预防的。音乐教育工作者在音乐课堂上预防PRHP方面发挥着主要作用。管乐手的应力性腭咽闭合不全（SVPI）是一种影响软腭闭合的疾病，导致空气通过鼻子逸出，同时通过口腔吹进乐器。尽管SVPI对管乐器演奏家来说是严重的，可能会结束职业生涯，但音乐教育工作者在SVPI流行率、原因、管理和预防方面的资源有限。因此，这种对音乐家SVPI现有文献的综合为音乐教育工作者提供了对SVPI的认识和理解。提供了有关SVPI症状、治疗途径、预防的信息，以及在音乐工作室管理SVPI的实用解决方案的建议。对术语、症状、流行率和解决方案的全面理解可以使音乐教育工作者能够在课堂或工作室中更有效地进行干预，以识别SVPI。
