NCT04164485

Brief Summary

Unilateral vocal cord paralysis (UVCP) is a clinical condition and often leads to glottic insufficiency. The presence of glottic insufficiency can result in poor pronunciation quality, vocal fatigue, shortness of breath with speaking, and in some cases, it could lead to unable to pronounce, dysphagia and aspiration, severely decreasing quality of life for its victims. This study is carried out to explore the short-term and long-term efficacy of the functional collagen scaffold in guiding laryngeal soft tissue regeneration.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (6)

  • GRBAS scale

    Auditory perceptual evaluation was assessed with a GRBAS scale, in which the voice properties, such as the grade of the severity of dysphonia (G), roughness (R), breathiness (B), asthenia (A), and strain (S), are scored on a four-point scale: 0 = normal, 1 = slight deviance, 2 = moderate deviance, and 3 = severe deviance

    1 week after intervention

  • GRBAS scale

    Auditory perceptual evaluation was assessed with a GRBAS scale, in which the voice properties, such as the grade of the severity of dysphonia (G), roughness (R), breathiness (B), asthenia (A), and strain (S), are scored on a four-point scale: 0 = normal, 1 = slight deviance, 2 = moderate deviance, and 3 = severe deviance

    1 month after intervention

  • GRBAS scale
