Abstract:
Objective To develop a multi-parametric objective evaluation protocol and investigate its correlation with perceptual analysis of continuous speech for objectivity and quantitatively. Methods The voice samples were collected from 135 patients with dysphonia and 29 subjects with normal voice. The objective parameters, including fundamental frequency (F 0), intensity, jitter, signal-to-noise ratio, Lyapunov coefficient (LC),oral airflow (OAF), vocal range (Range) and maximum phonatory time (MPT) which were measured mainly on a sustained /a/ and estimated subglottic pressure (ESGP) which was determined on a series of /pa/,were recorded on an "EVA" workstation which was developed in French. According to the G (overall dysphonia) component of the GRBAS score on a 4-point scale ranging from 0 for normal to 3 for severe dysphonia, the perceptual analysis was done by a jury composed of 4 experienced listeners and the voice samples (continuous speech) were from the same patients with normal voices and normal intensity. Results Using the discriminate analysis, a seven parameters protocol (Range, LC, ESGP, MPT, OAF, signal-to-noise ratio and F 0) was developed. Result showed that this protocol allowed 84% concordance with jury classification.Conclusion The objective voice evaluation is multi-parametric and is able to reflet the result of perceptual analysis.
