Preliminary Study 1 to Test the Effects of Ambulatory Voice Biofeedback in Small Groups of Patients With Vocal Hyperfunction
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Ambulatory voice biofeedback for Vocal Fold Nodules. Completed, enrolled 29 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
This first study will enroll 3 groups of patients with vocal fold nodules that will receive different schedules of ambulatory voice biofeedback (100% frequency feedback, 25% frequency feedback, summary feedback) to avoid their upper 15th percentile of vocal loudness.

Timeline
Interventions
Subjects will be provided cues regarding their vocal behavior in daily life. The cues will either be: 100% feedback = a vibrotactile cue on a smartwatch every time the patient voices incorrectly... 25% feedback = a vibrotactile cue on a smartwatch every 4th time the patient voices incorrectly... Summary feedback = the patient's overall compliance (percentage of voiced time within desired limits) will be presented via a smartwatch every 2 minutes of voicing.
