Abstract

Introduction: Voice disorders, in general, have various psychological, physiological, anatomical and functional causes and may result in the disruption of different aspects of the affected individual’s daily life. Considering the fact that people’s personality, occupation and perception of a disorder can affect the quality of their lives; the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of voice disorders’ symptoms on patients’ life quality.Materials and Methods: The participants in this study were 40 patients suffering from various voice disorders, who were referred to the speech therapy clinics. After obtaining voice samples through asking the subjects to sustain the vowel /a/ for ten seconds; the VHI test was completed by them. The voice samples were analyzed via the inbuilt Dr.Speech’s software, Voice Analyst. The calculated mean values of ACOUSTIC PARAMETERS were then statically compared with the VHI test scores via Pearson’s correlation coefficient using SPSS software.Results: There was a significant relationship between both signal-to-noise ratio and harmony-to-noise ratio ACOUSTIC PARAMETERS and all obtained the scores of VHI test. Also, the standard deviation of the fundamental frequency and the scale’s total score, the physical and functional subscales scores, and the total as well as the physical subscale scores and the acoustic parameter of shimmer were significantly correlated.Conclusion: In this study, there was either no significant or, at best, a week correlation between VHI scores and measured acoustic values. This is probably due to those factors affecting patient’s attitude toward disability including his/her personality, pervious experience regarding voice functions, occupational and social status, and disorder’s course of progress.
