Personalized voice device for people who have lost their voice
Part of Brain & nervous system, Ear, nose & throat, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests a new personalized device to help people who have lost their voice (after laryngectomy or other causes) speak again. It may help improve communication and quality of life.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You must be 18 years old or older
- You must either be a healthy volunteer without any voice problems, OR you must have severe voice problems (like hoarseness or loss of voice)

This study tests a behavioral voice therapy approach for people with voice issues caused by muscle tension or benign vocal fold lesions. It aims to improve communication and requires participants to attend sessions and practice with a smartphone.
This trial tests if gentle vibration applied to the neck can help people with voice problems caused by muscle strain (hyperfunctional dysphonia). If you have a strained voice without vocal cord lesions and may benefit from voice therapy, this study could help you.
This study compares the effectiveness of voice therapy delivered in person versus through telehealth for adults aged 55 and older with age-related voice changes or vocal fold atrophy. You will be randomly assigned to one of two groups, attend four therapy sessions, and participate in two in-person evaluations.
This study tests a voice implant device in people with permanent vocal cord weakness (UVFP) who have trouble closing their vocal cords. It aims to improve voice strength and reduce voice-related burden, while checking safety over the study period.
This study looks at whether a larynx (voice box) transplant can help people who have permanent loss of laryngeal function. It is a very small early evaluation (only 3 patients) and would require major surgery and medicines that lower the immune system.
This trial studies a brain stimulation approach for a specific voice disorder that can include tremor. It aims to better understand how well the treatment works and how to use it more effectively while carefully checking safety with awake procedures.
