Scientific title | Predictive value of oesophageal computerised manometry after total laryngectomy in patients with voice prosthesis: evaluation of pharyngo-oesophageal segment |
Study objectives | There is a cutoff value for determination of patients with and without spasm of pharyngo-oesophageal segment under computerised manometry exam. |
Ethics approval(s) | Ethics approval received from the Ethics in Research Committee from State University of Campinas on the 6th May 2007 (ref: 036/2007 description CAAE: 0020.0.146.000-7). |
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Cancer of larynx, voice disorders |
Intervention | Follow-up ranged from two to seven years: 1. One group with 12 patients were without spasm, confirmed by videofluoroscopy as "gold standard" of pharyngo-oesophageal segment and the tests perceptive voice analysis, videofluoroscopy and computerised manometry were performed 2. One group with 8 patients had spasm of pharyngo-oesophageal segment confirmed by videofluoroscopy as "gold standard", performed perceptive voice analysis, videofluoroscopy and computerised manometry, too. After they were treated with 100 units of botulinum toxin injection in the pharyngo-oesophageal segment and after one month perceptive voice analysis, videofluoroscopy and computerised manometry were repeated. |
Intervention type | Other |
Primary outcome measure | Evaluation of a cutoff value for diagnosis of spasm of pharyngo-oesophageal segment (PES) with computerised manometry (CM) or PES in total laryngectomy (TL) patients. In the group without spasms, outcomes were measured after selection criteria were established. In the group with spasms, after the requirements of selection criteria were fulfilled, the patients were selected and all measurements were done. Then treatment with botulinum toxin was done and after one month of application of toxin all measurements were repeated. |
Secondary outcome measures | 1. Evaluation of degree of statistical difference of mean values of computerised manometry between patients with and without spasm 2. Evaluation of improvement of fluency of speech in patients with spasm after application of botulinum toxin in pharyngo-oesophageal segment In the group without spasms, outcomes were measured after selection criteria were established. In the group with spasms, after the requirements of selection criteria were fulfilled, the patients were selected and all measurements were done. Then treatment with botulinum toxin was done and after one month of application of toxin all measurements were repeated. |
