Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Device Life Time

    Device life was measured from the time of insertion until the time of replacement. Reason for replacement was recorded. Only replacements for leakage through the device are considered for calculation of device life time.

    at replacement of voice prosthesis (maximum 1 year)

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Voice Quality

    at 3 months or device change (whichever was first)

  • Ease of Insertion

    assessed immediately after insertion procedure

  • Reason for Replacement

    At removal of prosthesis

Study Arms (1)

Early feasability arm

EXPERIMENTAL
Device: Provox Vega voice prosthesis (20 Fr)

Interventions

The current Provox2 voice prosthesis of laryngectomized patients will, when the patient comes in for a change, be replaced with a new, next generation Provox Vega voice prosthesis and insertion system

Also known as: indwelling Provox voice prosthesis
Early feasability arm
