Consonantal phonation rehabilitation

چکیده
This paper presents an innovative system for tablets aiming at facilitating and supporting speech therapists and teachers towards the diagnosis and treatment of vocalization problems with particular interest in consonantal phonemes. As such, cloud technologies provide the appropriate place to host a platform supporting the system with the associated features due to the wider development and distribution for tablets cloud computing provides. Up to now, related resources presentation and utilisation for these vocalization difficulties are limited to pictograms and static web pages developed by speech therapists. Therefore, it is impossible to take advantage of their full potentiality for professional and practical Web and even less cloud-based environments utilisation.

Effects of consonant manner and vowel height on intraoral pressure and articulatory contact at voicing offset and onset for voiceless obstruents.
In obstruent consonants, a major constriction in the upper vocal tract yields an increase in intraoral pressure (P(io)). Phonation requires that subglottal pressure (P(sub)) exceed P(io) by a threshold value, so as the transglottal pressure reaches the threshold, phonation will cease. This work investigates how P(io) levels at phonation offset and onset vary before and after different German vo...

Asian languages reveal a continuum from quasi-disyllables to highly eroded monosyllables. These variegated states are now understood to be different stages along a common evolutionary path. An overview is proposed, beginning with the earliest stages of monosyllabicization, before the generalization of a strictly monosyllabic phonological structure. The well-documented processes of consonantal d...
متن کاملTranstracheal stimulation of the recurrent laryngeal nerve.
Phonation was induced in 10 mongrel dogs under general anesthesia by way of transtracheal stimulation of the recurrent laryngeal nerves under conditions of constant air flow. Although stimulation voltages were approximately 10 times the voltage required for direct stimulation, no cardiac or respiratory abnormalities were observed. Photoglottographic and electroglottographic signals were the sam...
متن کاملSimulation of Human Phonation with Vocal Nodules
The geometric and biomechanical properties of the larynx strongly influence voice quality and efficiency. A physical understanding of phonation natures in pathological conditions is important for predictions of how voice disorders can be treated using therapy and rehabilitation. Here, we present a continuum-based numerical model of phonation that considers complex fluid-structure interactions o...
متن کاملAge-Related Differences of Maximum Phonation Time in Patients after Cardiac Surgery
Background and aims: Maximum phonation time (MPT), which is related to respiratory function, is widely used to evaluate maximum vocal capabilities, because its use is non-invasive, quick, and inexpensive. We aimed to examine differences in MPT by age, following recovery phase II cardiac rehabilitation (CR). Methods: This longitudinal observational study assessed 50 consecutive cardiac patients ...
