Resumo:O objetivo deste estudo foi identificar os protocolos existentes sobre qualidade de vida (QV) em disfagia e verificar a utilização dos mesmos no tratamento fonoaudiológico. Realizou-se pesquisa teórica e exploratória com a técnica de revisão da literatura nas bases de dados SCOPUS, Trip Database, LILACS, PubMed, SciELO, Google Schoolar, periódicos Capes e MedLine. O período de busca compreendeu os anos entre 2004 e 2014 e foram utilizados os seguintes descritores: deglutição; transtornos da deglutição; qualidade de vida; questionários e os seus respectivos termos em inglês deglutition; deglutition disorders; quality of Life; questionnaires. Foram encontrados na literatura o protocolo Quality of life in Swallowing Disorders-SWAL-QOL, o qual estabelece o comprometimento da deglutição independente da etiologia; o MD Anderson Dysphagia Inventory, que é específico para sujeitos submetidos à tratamento de câncer de cabeça e pescoço e o Dysphagia Handicap Index,que avalia os efeitos da disfagia sobre a qualidade de vida (QV) em sujeitos com diferentes patologias de base e pode ser utilizado em níveis mais baixos de escolaridade. A literatura propõe diferentes protocolos que avaliam a QV em disfagia, sendo que os mais utilizados avaliam a QV de forma geral, relacionada ao câncer de cabeça e pescoço e de sujeitos com diferentes diagnósticos médicos. A utilização desses protocolos pode auxiliar e complementar a avaliação clínica e objetiva da deglutição, uma vez que, retratam a autoavaliação referida pelo sujeito, sendo este ponto de vista de extrema importância para o tratamento fonoaudiológico.

<p class="abstract"><strong>Background:</strong> Dysphagia is a serious sequel of head and neck cancer (HNC) and its treatment. This dysfunction is frequent and likely underreported by clinical exam. It seems necessary to assess its global burden during the pre, per and post treatment periods (up to 18 months), regardless of the treatment received.</p><p class="abstract"><strong>Methods:</strong> This was a prospective cohort study assessing the rate of dysphagia in first-time treated HNC patients, using the deglutition handicap index questionnaire (DHI) and the clinician reporting. Time to occurrence, severity and length of the dysfunction were recorded. The benefit of an evaluation by the patient himself was investigated. </p><p class="abstract"><strong>Results:</strong> Of 134 evaluable patients: 22 were treated by surgery alone (16.4%), 16 by radiotherapy (RT) alone (11.9%), 3 by chemotherapy (CT) alone (2.2%), 28 by RTCT (20.9%), 31 by induction chemotherapy followed by RTCT (23.1%), 11 by surgery+RT (8.2%) and 23 by surgery+RTCT (17.2%). Patients completed 87.9% of the expected DHI. The dysphagia frequency reported was 92.2% by patient-reporting and 80.9% by clinicians-reporting, whatever the intensity. Self-perceived moderate to severe dysphagia was reported in 69.8% of patients.</p><p class="abstract"><strong>Conclusions:</strong> Given the strong impact of dysphagia on the quality of life and prognosis of HNC patients, it appears essential to perform screening and systematic monitoring. Using a simple and well accepted questionnaire, such as DHI, which is also well correlated with clinical evaluation, we demonstrated a significant frequency of dysphagia. The use of real-time patient-reported outcomes for its early detection would be an asset, particularly during long-term follow-up.</p><p class="abstract">Registered under ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier no.

ABSTRACT Background It is important to have a subjective measure of hoarseness. This can be best achieved if the questionnaire is in the patient's own language. Objective To translate the voice handicap index (VHI) into the Malayalam language, and to evaluate its clinical validity and internal consistency. Materials and methods One hundred and six patients with dysphonia and 20 asymptomatic subjects were included in the study. Internal consistency was analyzed through Cronbach's alpha coefficient. For the clinical validity assessment, the scores obtained in the patient group were compared with those found in asymptomatic individuals through the Mann-Whitney U-test. Also, comparison between the VHI scores before and after phonomicrosurgery on 14 out of the studied 106 patients was done using the nonparametric Wilcoxon signed ranks test. Spearman rank correlation was used to find the effect of patient's age on VHI scores. Finally, the gender-wise average VHI score and its three subsets was analyzed using Wilcoxon signed ranks test. Results The internal consistency was found to be excellent (α = 0.946). The control group scored significantly lower than the patients group (p < 0.001). Similarly, significant improvement was seen in the postoperative average VHI scores (p < 0.004). All of the preceding proves the validity of the translated questionnaire. Age showed a significant negative correlation for the overall VHI and their three domains (p < 0.001) in the dysphonic patients. There was no such correlation between male and female patient groups. Conclusion This Malayalam language version of the VHI questionnaire is a valid instrument for use in the voice clinic. Clinical implication: Encouragement to all voice clinicians in India to develop and use the VHI in their native tongues. How to cite this article Menon U, Sheejamol VS, Cherian MP.

Étude de l’auto-évaluation de la qualité de parole et du ressenti (SHI) après glossectomie partielle ou totale. Cette étude consiste en une analyse des réponses recueillies auprès de patients glossectomisés après la passation du questionnaire d’auto-évaluation de la parole et du ressenti (Speech Handicap Index ou SHI) de (Rinkel & coll,.2008), traduit en français par Degroote et al. (2012) et adapté du VHI (Voice Handicap Index de Jacobson et al., 1997). Le SHI est un outil d’évaluation du degré du handicap provoqué par les troubles de la parole. Il est constitué d’une échelle d’auto–évaluation cotée sur 120 points et comporte 30 items. Ce questionnaire est constitué de deux sous échelles dont une consacrée à l’aspect Psycho-sociale(Ps) et l’autre à l’aspect Parole (s). L’objectif d’évaluer le handicap d’un patient glossectomisé est de mieux comprendre les dysfonctionnements sur le plan linguistique pour une meilleure prise en charge thérapeutique. Nous avons examiné, à travers des phases de passations pré et post-chirurgicales, les réponses collectées auprès de chaque patient. Une analyse statistique est présentée afin de rendre compte de la sévérité du handicap entre les phases de passations du questionnaire d’auto évaluation de la parole et du ressenti.

AbstractBackground:There is an increasing choice of voice outcome research tools, but good comparative data are lacking.Objective:To evaluate the reliability and validity of three voice-specific, self-reported scales.Design:Longitudinal, cohort comparison study.Setting:Two UK voice clinics: the Freeman Hospital, Newcastle upon Tyne, and the Glasgow Royal Infirmary.Participants:One hundred and eighty-one patients presenting with dysphonia.Main outcome measures:All patients completed the vocal performance questionnaire, the voice handicap index and the voice symptom scale. For comparison, each patient's voice was recorded and assessed perceptually using the grade–roughness–breathiness–aesthenia–strain scale. The reliability and validity of the three self-reported vocal performance measures were assessed in all subjects, while 50 completed the questionnaires again to assess repeatability.Results:The results of the 170 participants with completed data sets showed that all three questionnaires had high levels of internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha = 0.81–0.95) and repeatability (voice handicap index = 0.83; vocal performance questionnaire = 0.75; voice symptom scale = 0.63). Concurrent and criterion validity were also good, although, of the grade–roughness–breathiness–aesthenia–strain subscales, roughness was the least well correlated with the self-reported measures.Conclusion:The vocal performance questionnaire, the voice handicap index and the voice symptom scale are all reliable and valid instruments for measuring the patient-perceived impact of a voice disorder.

AbstractThe effects of treatments on tinnitus have been difficult to quantify. The Tinnitus Functional Index (TFI) has been proposed as a standard questionnaire for measurement of tinnitus treatment outcomes. For a questionnaire to achieve wide acceptance, its psychometric properties need to be confirmed in different populations.To determine if the TFI is a reliable and valid measure of tinnitus, and if its psychometric properties are suitable for use as an outcome measure.A psychometric evaluation of the TFI from secondary data obtained from a cross-sectional clinic survey and a clinical trial undertaken in New Zealand.Confirmatory factor analysis and evaluation of internal consistency reliability were undertaken on a sample of 318 patients with the primary complaint of tinnitus. In a separate sample of 40 research volunteers, test–retest reliability, convergent and divergent validity were evaluated. Both samples consisted of predominantly older Caucasian male patients with tinnitus.The internal structure of the original US TFI was confirmed. The Cronbach’s Alpha and Intraclass correlation coefficients were >0.7 for the TFI overall and each of its subscales, indicating high internal consistency and test–retest reliability. Strong Pearson correlations with the Tinnitus Handicap Questionnaire and tinnitus numerical rating scales indicated excellent convergent validity, and a moderate correlation with the Hearing Handicap Inventory, indicated moderate divergent validity. Evaluation of the clinical trial showed good test–retest reliability and agreement between no-treatment baselines with a smallest detectable change of 4.8 points.The TFI is a reliable and valid measure of tinnitus severity in the population tested and is responsive to treatment-related change. Further research as to the TFI’s responsiveness to treatment is needed across different populations.

Full textAbstract:
Background The Dysphagia Handicap Index (DHI) is a 25-item questionnaire that assesses the quality of life among individuals with dysphagia. The aim of this study was to translate and validate the Kannada version of DHI (DHI-K). Method Eighty-eight individuals with dysphagia and an equal number of healthy individuals filled out the DHI-K. Internal consistency and test–retest reproducibility were used for reliability testing. Validity was established by comparing DHI-K scores of patients with dysphagia and healthy controls. Results The overall Cronbach's α for DHI-K was .81, indicating good internal consistency. Cohen's κ agreement for test–retest reliability of self-perceived severity was found to be .9. Correlation between subscales of DHI and self-perceived severity was analyzed using Spearman correlation coefficient and was found to very high. The control group has significantly lower scores for all scales when compared to the dysphagia group (physical: t (174) = 31.74, p < .001; functional: t (174) = 32.65, p < .001; emotional: t (174) = 36.3, p < .001; total: t (174) = 34.08, p < .001). Conclusions This study demonstrates that DHI-K has good internal consistency, test–retest reliability, and concurrent validity. The results of the study also reveal that it is a reliable and valid tool for assessment of handicap in Kannada-speaking dysphagia population.

Purpose The Voice Handicap Index (VHI) questionnaire assesses the impact of total laryngectomy on voice-related quality of life. This study evaluates the Mandarin VHI, including its internal consistency, test–retest reliability, content validity, and differences in scores for Mandarin alaryngeal patients with pneumatic artificial laryngeal (PA) and esophageal (ES) speech. Method Translation and validation of the VHI questionnaire was performed through the forward–backward translation technique. This study used a sample of 78 PA and 23 ES participants from Taiwan who completed the Mandarin VHI. Forty-two of the alaryngeal participants completed the Mandarin VHI twice over a period of 7–63 days. Results The measurement of the internal consistency of the Mandarin VHI showed a high Cronbach's alpha coefficient for the total score (.975) and the functional (.930), physical (.939), and emotional (.938) subscales. Based on the results of the intraclass correlation coefficients, good test–retest reliability for the total and domain scores was found (intraclass correlation coefficient = .827–.863). Conclusion The Mandarin VHI was validated as an instrument with proper internal consistency and reliability, which supports the Mandarin VHI as a valid instrument for the self-evaluation of handicaps related to voice problems in PA and ES speakers.

Standardized instruments are often used to monitor one’s progress in tinnitus relief although they were developed to screen and diagnose tinnitus. The need for the development for a tinnitus outcome assessment tool is high in the field of audiology and otolaryngology. The purpose of this study was to develop a tinnitus outcome questionnaire for sound management (listening to sound stimuli for tinnitus relief) and assess its content validity. A total of 32 questions with six domains (Tinnitus characteristics, the impact of tinnitus, tinnitus and hearing issues, handedness, tinnitus management, and sound management outcome) were generated after closely investigating major tinnitus questionnaires used worldwide (i.e. Tinnitus Handicap Inventory and Tinnitus Handicap Questionnaire) as well as literature. Ten healthcare professionals evaluated the appropriateness of the questionnaire items on a five-point Likert scale, where 1 is strongly inappropriate and 5 is strongly appropriate. Content relevance was assessed by computing the content validity index with the cut-off value of 0.75. Each response was first weighted as follows: 1 = 0; 2 = 0.25; 3 = 0.5; 4 = 0.75; and 5 = 1.0. The weighted average was then calculated. Items with a content validity index less than 0.75 were discarded and some items were revised according to the experts’ feedback. As a result, 31 out of the 32 items had the content validity index higher than 0.75, indicating that the items are appropriate to obtain information about the six domains. Reflecting the experts’ feedback, some questions were revised to be more specific. The study provides a baseline structure regarding potential questions to be included in a tinnitus outcome questionnaire for sound management. Development and standardization of such questionnaire would be a pathway to validating tinnitus relief via sound therapy.
