[Preliminary analysis of the effect of individualized voice therapy on pediatric voice disorders].

Objective:To determine the effectiveness of individualized voice therapy in persistent pediatric voice disorders. Methods:Thirty-eight children who were admitted to the Department of Pediatric Otolaryngology Shenzhen Hospital, Southern Medical University due to persistent voice disorder from November 2021 to October 2022 were included. All children were evaluated by dynamic laryngoscopy before voice therapy. Two voice doctors performed GRBAS score and acoustic analysis on the children's voice samples to obtain the relevant parameters including F0, Jitter, Shimmer, and MPT; All children were given personalized voice therapy for 8 weeks. Results:Among 38 children with voice disorders, 75.8%（29 cases） were diagnosed with vocal nodules, 20.6%（8 cases） were vocal polyps, and 3.4%（1 case） were vocal cysts. And in all children. And 51.7%（20 cases） had the sign of supraglottic extrusion under dynamic laryngoscopy. GRBAS scores decreased from 1.93 ± 0.62, 1.82 ± 0.55, 0.98 ± 0.54, 0.65 ± 0.48, 1.05 ± 0.52 to 0.62 ± 0.60, 0.58 ± 0.53, 0.32 ± 0.40, 0.22 ± 0.36, 0.37 ± 0.36. F0, Jitter, Shimmer decreased from（243.11±39.73） Hz, （0.85±0.99）%, （9.96±3.78）% to（225.43±43.20） Hz, （0.33±0.57）%, （7.72±4.32）%, respectively MPT was prolonged from（5.82±2.30） s to（7.87±3.21） s after treatment. All parameters changes had statistical significance. Conclusion:Voice therapy can solve children's voice problems, improve their voice quality and effectively treat children's voice disorders.
